OK, so after two years I've finally given in to having a section of the FORUM specifically set up to discuss painting techniques, display examples, show your latest projects and chat about this vital part of the hobby. Manufacturers please feel free to post up your sculpts, ask questions about what the gamers are after and generally promote your work.. no charge! Painters, please also feel free to post up your work for comment and critique. I can't promise the unreserved adulation characteristic of some other fora but I would hope you'd get constructive and measured comment!

ah.. right I know those bases. Mine is a separate half hexagon so that unit ID change with a simple swapping of 3 models

Central base is 60x60 but with built in half ocotgon that is another 20mm at the longest part
So your central Base is one Base. Not a separate half based. Can you give me the dimensions so I can e-mail war based again.basically I need to tell him what he is actually making.
Once again many thanks to everyone one for there help.

Yes. I did think about doing that.
But I'm very base lazy. Hate moving bases. So fewer bases the better.

Here you go, hope that helps
I For my swedes(they have quite a big foot print I put 9 figures on there(4 command and 5 pikemen) My drummers are on one of the wing bases.
But Yould could probebly fit 1 swedes on the base, as both my central bases have "stuff" on them, on my Kalmar I have a puddle and Jönköping has a broken wheel and naturaly they take up alot of room
I use the same system on my NYW figures and there i can fit 12!! figures on the sentral base, as they have smaller foot print.
As you can see here.
When I do WSS or say danish NYW that dosen't have any pikes I'll simply use 3 regular 60x60 bases.

Sorry about this gunfire but I just got a reply from warbases.
If you could please advise the length of the top part of the extension to the Base. We know the depth is 20mm so we can work from there.
So I take it they need the length of the top of the half hex on the Base would it be possible for you to give me that as well. Sorry to be so much trouble
Once again many thanks for your help.
