How to Make and Paint Urban/Industrial Themed Bases

In this video, I will show you how I made and painted some simple urban themed bases. I think these will work nicely for many different Warhammer 40,000 factions. The tarmac/asphalt texture of these bases could also be used to convey an industrial setting.

‘I rub my tool back and forth, applying a reasonable amount of pressure, until I am happy with the result’ - this is some good advice.

[@jamesedwards8175]

That splatter technique is next level. I will have to steal it...

[@gordong.3524]

absolutely awesome. thanks for that. and yes, I lied to see similar videos in the future

[@BattleBro77]

Thank you for making this a full video - the shorts are useful but KZbin won’t let me save them to my painting playlist! Useful tutorial as always.

[@RookieBrushes]

Thanks, mate. I would love to do more full length videos like this, they are so much fun.

[@leeperry7068]

Yep, I really dislike that you can't save shorts to a playlist. Such a strange strange decision on KZbin's part.

[@kentknightofcaelin4537]

You can on mobile.

I like this, I did something very similar for my zombiecide bases as it made more sense for the urban environment.

[@Lavendeer201]

YESSS I've been looking for bases like this! Thank you so much for the tutorial. I'm doing an urban setting for my World Eaters, and have been trying to have them rampaging through a city. But... I don't want the city to already be destroyed like a ton of bases show lol. This is perfect!

[@jonathondarter8024]

This is exactly what I have been wanting for my Iron Warriors. Thank you so much. I will be referring others to this vid and others.

[@RookieBrushes]

That is amazing to hear. I hope it will be useful.

[@arianash7763]

these are great! I love that you use the texture of the base itself, that's honestly not something I've seen anyone do before

[@leeperry7068]

I think some subtle use of your styrene tops would make for some cool slight height variation on a piece or two. The results looks amazing, great vid.

[@RookieBrushes]

Thats a great idea. Maybe I'll combine the two one day. Thanks.

[@ChaseDaOrk3767]

Those look pretty dope! Regular bases kinda already have a somewhat pavement-like texture, so painting the bases as such seem like easy basing scheme

[@ramani3565]

if your base does not already have the concrete/street texture, you can first cover it with typhus corrosion and then paint it black and drybrush it

[@GordonMcLachlan]

They look awesome!

[@spencerruston406]

Finally figured out how to base by GSC! Bit of blood and snow snow then boom - mining station revolutionaries

[@VaSoapman]

Since its a battle torn city, you could take one of the extra arms from a sprue and slap it onto the base. Extra thematic for the Genestealer Cult with that new fancy Ambush rule. Gives the impression that they are just running past their fallen brood brothers on the way to glorious ascension.

[@bendavy1816]

Amazing work! I’m 100% stealing this for my genestealer necromunda/kill team cult. Do you have a guide on how you painted the arbites? They are lovely.

[@RookieBrushes]

Excellent. I'm very happy to hear it. I haven't made any videos for my Arbites, but I do have a written guide here: paintpad.app/r/HC

[@BiGGoBBo13]

Nice work 👍

[@Frank869]

thank you RB

[@racspartan1]

👍

[@Doc51499]

Hey I know this video is kinda old so you probably won’t reply but how would you go about removing the dip in the middle of the bases for mono pose kits?
