🔧 Material & Build
Injection-moulded from ABS plastic — the same family of materials used in LEGO bricks. ABS does not warp, holds its shape over time, and bonds reliably with superglue (cyanoacrylate) and two-part epoxy. The textured top surface grips PVA, texture paste, and basing sand without needing to score or rough up the surface first. Takes all spray and brush-on primers cleanly.
Every mould in the OBS range is designed in-house using industry-standard CAD — these are not generic imports. We control the full production chain from design through to quality control. Mould lines are clean and consistent.
The 60×35mm oval keeps a slim 4mm profile. The 1.02mm floor is the thinnest in the OBS oval range — this is a lightweight base for lighter mounted models. Despite the thin floor, 3mm of underside clearance fits 5×2mm disc magnets comfortably. Use two placed towards each end of the long axis for a balanced hold in transport.
✅ Compatibility
60×35mm oval is a small-medium oval base specification used in modern skirmish wargaming systems. Typically used for mounted characters, warbeasts, cavalry, and fast-moving creatures in games that use oval bases for directional facing.
The outer short axis matches the 35mm nominal exactly. The outer long axis at 59.5mm sits fractionally under the 60mm nominal. Correct for organised and competitive play in systems that specify a 60×35mm oval footprint. The oval shape gives a clear front-facing orientation for charge arcs and line of sight.
💡 From the Workbench
Wash before priming — a quick rinse in warm soapy water removes mould release residue. Dry completely before spraying.
Superglue (CA) bonds ABS cleanly for plastic and resin cavalry kits. For heavier metal models, score the contact area lightly with a hobby knife before gluing — the extra grip helps on a base this size. Pin with 0.5–0.8mm brass rod if the model is top-heavy.
3mm underside clearance fits 5×2mm disc magnets comfortably. Use two placed towards each end of the long axis for a balanced hold. CA gel, check polarity before it sets.
At 60×35mm there's enough surface for scenic work without overwhelming the model. The oval shape naturally suggests movement — lean into that with directional terrain like scattered debris, hoofprints, or ground disturbance trailing behind the model. Keep the bevel edge clean for a tidy finish.
