How to make water effect bases for Idoneth Deepkin

[@SquidmarMiniatures]

👑👑👑 I'm just in the midst of releasing my dream miniature brush as well as some wonderfully sculpted miniature busts mid June 2020. It's something I'm really proud of and been working on for the better part of the last year. You can already pre register your interest on my Kickstarter page: bit.ly/3dKjmnz 👑👑👑

Thats wonderful! I was wondering though watching this video.. whats the Extra Heavy Gel and where can I find it? Edit: Did they discontinue it or rebrand it as the Water Texture?

[@carabus0354]

I like what you have done here. Just a tip from a modeler, you may want to add some gloss varnish or water effects to the wall and sand as they would be wet. You can also add some green effects for mold or plant growth. You could also clip a starfish or make one to go on the base to for additional effect. Nice one!

[@SquidmarMiniatures]

These are some great ideas! If anyone out there want to dig deeper in to the basing you can start with these thing! :)

[@carabus0354]

@@SquidmarMiniatures Thank you :)

[@Chemclskinz]

Love that idea! Thank you!

[@mattobrien4849]

Fair play Emil. Using your technique more-or-less exactly on some bases at the moment and really happy with the results.

[@montrasaur]

I am rarely impressed these days with anything mini related. Today I was very impressed.

[@andrewbeauman]

This is gorgeous. I would've never thought to do the waterdrop effect like that!

[@Bio_genese]

Fishing line is brilliant to hold the beads. Thank you for this ^^

[@gabeperras3711]

I used this technique to create an exploding lava effect for one of my Fyreslayer heros and it looks amazing!

[@123scopee]

Any place we can see it? Iam imagining how cool it looks already.

[@sporksabre]

That water texture technique is amazing. Thank for sharing it with us.

[@frankblaker8294]

Thanks , it is a very generous gift you give when you share your technique, it is very much appreciated.

[@janbiela8596]

Wow, I was always wondering how those water bases are being made. Looks stunning! Thanks a lot for the video :)

[@SquidmarMiniatures]

Glad we can help! :D

[@brucesolomon1514]

I've subscribed for ages but this vid just randomly popped up. So chuffed as I'm doing my deepkin soon as it's been sitting in the boxes too long and this is the best sea base video I've seen.

[@DDVargas1983]

Just got the Idoneth Deepkin start collecting set for Christmas, I came across this video while looking up guides. I look forward to giving this a try myself.

[@mjmcmonkey9604]

As I am just getting back in to the hobby (after a 20 year hiatus) and looking at starting an Idoneth Deepkin army, this is amazing and truest inspiring

[@Maestria00]

Super cool! I can't wait to use these techniques to advance my ocean bases!

[@uk_carnage]

Amazing tutorial, thank you

[@MechbossBoogie]

I'm using this same technique, somewhat different materials, to do the bases for my Seraphon army. General theme I'm going with is based on the Fly Geysers of Nevada.

[@andrewnixon8918]

Really really cool effects. Thanks for the video.

[@SquidmarMiniatures]

Thx for the comment mate, glad you like it!

[@kylemattinson7284]

Here super late, but this is amazing. This is a little above my skill level but it looks amazing.

[@ernie1903]

Nice touch very cool

[@martinkarlsson7947]

Välldigt snygg bas Emil!👏🏾👌🏾👌🏾😁

[@richardcoleman1018]

Looks amazing

[@euanlockie337]

I just got the vallejo liquid and gel water textures for my birthday so i can try this out now !

[@linkofdoom24]

One thing I’d think would be cool is to make it that you can swap out the tiles for the figures. So if there in a dungeon they have dungeon tile. On a cobble road? Cobble tiles. Probably be hard to get right but would be cool all the same

[@shinshenmichailovich7711]

That is just wonderful. I only wish to see a mini on a base)

[@TabletopHobby]

That was an excellent tutorial

[@AoSCoach]
