Silhouette Marker basing tutorial

First, I take a sheet of hex plasticard (all my aleph troops are based this way). Then I glue the bases face down into the bottom of the hex card, using superglue 



I roughly cut the bases into individual chunks with a craft knife 



I then carefully shave them down until they are flush with the base edge



I use green stuff to fill the gaps along the edges



When that's dry, I line the markers up, and draw their edges with a pencil



I don't want to add any height to the markers, even a few mm, so using a steel rule and craft knife, I cut a groove for the markers to sit in, so the base of the marker will be glued directly to the supplied base.



I glue the markers in place, then mask them off ready for painting. 



I paint the bases to match my army.



Finally I remove the masking tape and cling for the finished product. Please note, I had a little mishap with these, I used a new masking tape which was...a little too clingy, and it's kind of ruined the S1/S2 marker. Lesson to be learned, check your stuff.
