Extended base for the Bloodthirster

Introduction


Same idea as with the Fire Demon/Bloodthirster's base

Magnets


I glued 3 metallic washers to the underside of the small base.


Then I glued 2 10x1mm magnets each to 3 25mm bases. This should hold better than 1 5x2mm magnet, I hope. 


Place the magnetized bases on the washers, apply plastic glue to their underside generously, then place on the large base. Wait for it to properly dry.


Decoration


Take a spare plastic Bloodthirster base, chop off the connection to the leg, and green stuff more flames instead.



Sculpt some indentations, in the continuation of the existing ones.


Plastic glue to the base.


Doubles as a handy handle, as I'm always scared to grab the resin miniature itself.


Simulate the inner base


... by creating skulls embedded into the earth. Use home made putty and lots of skulls.


Painting


Spray black. Paint dark earth and skulls. Paint the decoration as fire and bronze.
