cheers Marco
Basing changes from time to time, but at the moment its as follows:
Pre colour Vallejo Basing gel - Vallejo Flat Earth or Vallejo Desert Yellow
Spread gel onto base
Pour Wood Glue into seperate tub
Dip the base of the figure into wood glue and then stick into gel on base
Spread gel over base to cover it
Sprinkle various grades of pumice 'stones'
Sprinkle grass flocking
Cut bushes to size, dip into wood glue and push into gel on bases
Leave to dry
Drive all before you with new fancy looking bases!
Spartans were done with this method

PS The last step doesnt always seem to work

Nice work
Run me through the figures you are using for the mounted or could you put down some closer pics.
Thanks

If you mean the mounted Romans then I used Hellenistic Thracians as they had large cloaks on, a simple shield swap for something more Roman (and TBH wrong as I suspect it should not be a legionary shield) as they were done.
All other cav/mounted figs are from the figure range of the respective manufacturer........ nothing changed or added really.
