Looking good, The slighty wider rectangular bases for the bigger units is a good move ;)

Cheers for the positive comments chaps. :)

I'm after peoples thoughts on different shaped bases and also thickness of bases. Currently these bases are 1.6mm thick when assembled. I'm looking at a different material as a possible substitute, however the assembled thickness would be 2mm. Is this something people wouldn't be bothered about or would you prefer to stick with the 1.6mm thick base? Also, are there any other shapes that you would like to see?

Cheers
Paul

Just catching up on this thread and seen the Ork buildings for the first time. They look fantastic psypher!

How's the ordering process work these days? :)

From an aesthetic point of view, I prefer thinner bases in general. If you're trying to offer replacement or compatible bases to other, now unavailable pieces, then I'd suggest not switching to 2mm, otherwise the difference of less than half a mil isn't likely to be a major thorn unless it was in the middle of someone basing an army. For shapes - well if you can do ovals and hexes, I have a couple armies that'll take a hundred or so of each. (Seriously, finding someone who will actually reply to contact emails about getting hex bases cut has proven an apparent impossibility)

Hi, sorry for the delay in replying.

I'm currently trying other materials to keep the thickness of the base as close to the original as possible.

I can design and cut any size or shape of base that is required to be honest. The bases can either be plain, standard bases without holes or the two part bases with the top layer having the locating holes cut out which is then glued to a plain base.

News Flash!

Ok, quick update. Battlescene Designs terrain may be becoming available through Vanguard Miniatures in the near future :)

This will give me more time to design, develop and complete old and new projects for future inclusion to the range of scenery.

Basically this would mean I would be taking on commissions only. Everything else would hopefully be available via Vanguard Miniatures.

Ah i'm sure she would if you emphasised the vast sums of money you'd be making with newer more efficient modern equipment. ;)

News Flash!

My new rectangular bases are now available from Vanguard Miniatures

http://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/ac ... rip-bases/

I will be trialling an alternative plastic to acrylic so hope to be using that in the New Year.

Vanguard will also be stocking and selling my current laser cut and resin scenery in the coming weeks. There may well be some new buildings available too!

I will continue to do custom/commission works direct, but for everything else, John at Vanguard will be able to supply you direct :)

Thanks
Paul
