Hello,

I'm looking for a pretty specific type of resin base and my google-fu is weak

I'm looking for something to base my avatar on, and I want a sort of cracked, erupting stone, like the ground is cracking under his feet.... can anyone suggest any specific bases they think might fit the (admittedly vague) bill?

thanks in advance!

How about using Agrellan Earth, that should give you a great crackled effect, I love the stuff.

The ruins bases from microart studios might fit(specifically round 60mm, as it has a few big shattered cracks in it). Otherwise I'd advise looking through their whole collection as they have a lot of Resin bases that may fit what you're looking for.

I only have experience with some of their add on kits, not their bases, but they quality was very good with one very small flaw on one of the 6 things I bought.

Microarts does some nice bases indeed:

There's also secret weapon (in the US):

Try picking up some slate. Brake it down into smaller sections and then stick to base. In between the slate infill with pva glue or water resin and paint up.

I had thought something like this one:

but yours has more cracks and really has the earth shredding up in tiny bits.
