Basing

A finished base helps a miniature feel part of its setting rather than simply standing on a plain plastic disc. The Army Painter Basing category brings together grasses, rocks, snow, undergrowth and textured materials for creating battlefields, fantasy landscapes and scenic display pieces.

You can add natural colour with Battlefield Field Grass or Battlefield Green Grass, build rough ground with Battlefield Rocks and Brown Battleground, or create colder scenes with Battlefield Snow. The Battlefields Basing Set provides a coordinated selection for anyone who wants several materials in one pack. Razorwire and Summer Undergrowth can add extra character to ruins, military bases and overgrown terrain.

Browse the wider The Army Painter range for brushes, glues and tools to use alongside your basing materials. You can also explore our Painting & Modelling collection for primers and finishing products. For a complete step-by-step project, our guide to creating scenic bases for miniatures explains how to use texture, paint, drybrushing, tufts and scenic details. If you are new to the wider hobby, our guide to starting miniature painting will help you bring the whole project together.
