Inside your mind, corrupting the pathways

Well, what kind of thing do you want?

You can get resin bases with sculpted detailing in pretty much any design, you can get laser etched bases from somewhere like WarMill in a tech/necron style, you can base them more traditionally with rocks, slate, static grass, snow, water effects... whatever you want really.

Pick something that you like the look of, have the skill and/or money to make/buy, and that will go with your army

A few ideas to get you started of less usual bases:
Swamp bases
Tundra bases
Lava bases
Urban base
Rubble bases
Technological bases

If you are looking to buy pre-made bases, check out Dark Sphere. I've heard they are pretty good for customer service and price.

You can use plasticard to create pannels/plates/tiles etc - you can even get textured plasticard in various patterns. Add in a few offcuts of wire (if you have an old computer/video player/toy you can get plenty, plus loads of other gubbins out of them).

No problem. If you have any more specific questions I am sure there are plenty of people who can help

Also, I advise going into poundland and getting a few packs of their superglue - £1 for 10 tubes will let you build several armies worth of models and bases. It doesn't have a particularly accurate placement of glue, but it is good for sticking all but the smallest bits together.

And it s dirt cheap

Get clear acrylic disks of the right size. Do absolutely nothing to them except glue the necron model on the disk.
Your Crons are now levitating off the ground.

Life isn't fair. But wouldn't it be worse if Life were fair, and all of the really terrible things that happen to us were because we deserved them?
