Working on some new basing styles

So, I got some supplies for myself for my birthday, and I'm using them to work on some new basing techniques.

Specifically, I got some Vallejo grey pumice, some Secret Weapon highland tuft, and I still have some Secret Weapon crushed glass that I have yet to use. So the plan is to make some snowy bases, slightly raised, the first test is on my Khorne Lord for my Warriors of Chaos and on a Trollblood model as well, so I have one square and one round.

The basic assembly begins with the base, a piece of corkboard and then a thin coating of grey pumice to make the cork look more like a piece of rocky terrain, it has a fine gritty texture and is fairly easily put into where you want it. I spread it flat over the top, and then mushed it around the sides and so ends step 1 of this attempt.

And here's a pretty (yet still dull) picture of the progress thus far:






The next still will be painting them, the chaos one will get some skulls and blood, cause you know, lord of Khorne and all that, and the Trollblood base will be a reasonably standard rocky grey with some tufts and snow on the edges.
