So, I'm looking for ideas to base any Tzeentch daemons that I add to my Daemonic horde. So far all my Nurgle daemons are based to look like they are wading through sewage and other effluent (w/ dirty green rims), while my Khorne daemons stand on red earth with puddles of blood and stringy gore (deep red rims). Since I never fight on battlefields that match my bases I figure that they don't need to match lol, and you could rationalize it as the daemons are warping the reality around them to reflect the realm of their patrons.

So, for my Tzeentch daemons, what's a good base? I've been considering flames of various colors, but that seems like it could be quite time consuming, and it would draw attention away from the model. Another thought I had was painting the plain plastic to look like different colored crystal floors (like Tzeentch's labyrinth). Anything else you guys think would look cool? Rims will most likely be painted blue. Depending on what you guys suggest ill choose an appropriate shade of blue.



Edit. Fixed some atrocious grammar. Probably more still here, but hey, I'm tired

Honestly I was looking for things I could do to the GW supplied bases. I still have tuition to pay, I can't justify spending a lot on bases when I have some already

Plus my Fateweaver counts as has already been epoxied to his base...

Sorry, it was a terrible pic. This one is a little better but still with a phone unfortunately, wife takes camera with her for some reason!

Stupidly cheap to do this sort of base: Paint Base in a lighter colour than you want, PVA all over with a little water added for flow, drip super glue where you want bubbles, let dry. Paint in chosen colour and wash with a darker shade. Finish with a varnish.

You can put all sorts into the glue as it dries, bits of body, slate, stones, tombs, etc

Do you use the gel super glue or the normal thin glue? Also, do you mind if I steal your method? (Because I'm going to )
