The proxie bases are a true 60mm base.

GW dreadnought bases are actually 65mm but are usually mislabeled as a 60mm base.

I'm not a stickler over such a small detail, I tend to go with whatever base sizes look apropriate for the models. I've been making good use out of the 60mm bases on stuff that a 50mm was just slightly to small for.

I'm sure most people won't notice that the bases are 2.5mm smaller, if they are anal enough to care I'm sure thre's also plenty of other things they are going to harp about.

Hmmm, I had no idea Dread bases were actually bigger than 60mm (which is what I think they're listed as)! I'll probably just use these, though- I got a number of them and they look really good.

The drybrushing really makes the models look dirty and obfuscates the detail. Anyone have a picture of one painted up in better techniques? Or is that as good as the tanks get?

Really like those little leman russ looking tanks.

hmm.. I kinda like their bases, been looking for something different for the minis for my game.. anyone that has the 25mm kind.. are they a paint to separate easily and still have em look good? I'd have to order hundreds of em and pluck off 1 to stick in each blister. or more like send em to the production company to pluck off and put in the package.

pretty darn easy.. there is a thicker connection point than GW, and there might be a bit of trimming to do with a sharp knife.

Takes me about 5 seconds to trim mine..
