15 mm Late Medieval Artillery (x3)

Post by vexillia »

Like lots of others I have far too many projects on the go at the moment. So I did the obvious thing: I started the above but as a mini-project that I could complete in less than a week and utilise some spares from my lead pile. The intention is to sell them via eBay or other route(s) at £12 each plus postage.

Anyway I've just finished painting them and I'm currently waiting for the paint to dry before I varnish them. I have stuck everything to 40 by 40 mm MDF bases but I haven't started the groundwork.

What I wanted to ask was "should I base them" or would people prefer to do their own basing so the elements blend in with existing armies?

My OCD suffers agonies when the bases on my toys don't all conform exactly in style and colour. I'd probably rebase anything that came ready based.

But you’d rebase anything you based yourself as well though.

I suspect they’d be more sellable unbased

I would offer them unbased. I think a lot of people want uniformity of basing in their armies

A good point, well made.

Consensus seems to be unfinished bases. Here's a photo of all three:
