I always like to base my Warhammer minis with bright but simple bases. This gives the whole army a unified look and really draws the viewers eye to the army as a whole. For these Space Marines, painted as Ultramarines I have gone with a bright red base to contrast with the blue of their armour.
In this short you can see how I add tufts of grass to bases covered in technical paint & pigment. This really gives them the style of a barren mars-like planet somewhere in the depths of the 41st millennium of Warhammer 40k!

I really like that finish on the armor. They look great.
