Re: [OT] Galoob Star Wars Re: A DS/FT campaign question and RE: [sg] StartingForces

The ones I have been basing - Echo Base Troops, Classic Characters, and
Imperial Navy Troops all have smooth bases or I do not worry about them
<G>

I paint the washer with primer - then let dry.

Then I white glue the figure onto the washer. - then let dry.

Then I load the figure/washer combo with glue to about the figures
ankles
and smoothly all around.  Wear shorts that you don't mind getting glue
on as
fingers are the best spreading device and pants are the best finger glue
clearing device.  Once I have a smooth cover I throw on the flock both a
cover of fine and some chunky.	The glue shrinks as it dries so you get
a
somewhat smooth and faded in base.

I uploaded a couple of pics that show them:

The ship deck is my in progress Dirtcheep starship deck.

On topically that is an FMA game in progress <G>

<<Stuff snipped>>

Well, I wasn't going for a micromachine discussion, but now that it's
happened, do you trim any of the Galoob bases back?

Some of the figs have a rolled-under ridges, and I started to take these
off with nail clippers. Do you find this necessary or just use them as
is?

How thick is the glue on the washer?
