After sanding the bases the Hungarians were given an undercoat of Citadels Black Undercoat yesterday afternoon. Using a latex glove((the snapping of a latex glove going on is the last sound the frequent international traveller wishes to hear as they pass through customs)) I was able to spray undercoat under the war wagons and the knights.
The undercoat was then sprayed on the top of the figures and bases and has dried to a nice even coat … ready for painting which will have to wait for next year!
The control group – the warband, now looks like this:

Thomo, I am following this project with interest. I am intrigued by the possibility of basing figs before painting. Did you previously use the hobby stick method? Happy New Year from Seoul, Dave

Yeah, previously I used tongue depressors – they were a little larger than paddle-pop sticks and therefore easier to work with.
A friend of mine, Doug, Has employed the base then paint method for a while although interestingly for his Sui project he is painting then basing.
