Coverage / Measurements

  • Standard usage is Approx. 150+ 28mm models
  • Usage amounts and coverage may vary depending on size of base or depth of material used

Tips

  • Apply thin and even — spread a thin layer of basing glue across your base before pressing in the rubble mix for best coverage
  • Work in sections — for larger terrain pieces, apply adhesive and rubble in small areas to avoid the glue drying before you're done
  • Seal before painting — if you plan to drybrush or wash over the top, seal with a matt varnish first to lock the rubble in place
  • Layer for depth — mix with fine sand or static grass around the edges to blend into surrounding basing materials
  • Use a stiff brush — press the rubble firmly into wet basing glue with an old brush to ensure good adhesion and remove air pockets
  • Shake before use — give the pot a shake to redistribute any settled aggregates before applying
  • Combine with other Base Ready products — mix with Base Ready Wasteland or Ash Fields for a more varied, realistic finish
  • Varnish to protect — a coat of matt varnish after completion will protect the finish during gaming and transport

Instructions for use

  1. Apply a thin layer of glue to the area where you want to apply the Grimdark City Rubble.
  2. Sprinkle the Grimdark City Rubble onto the glue and spread it out evenly.
  3. Allow the glue to dry completely.
  4. You can add additional elements, such as rocks, debris, or skulls, to create a more realistic effect.
