Manufacturer: Gale Force 9

Basing Grits are used to represent all sorts of dirt, sand, rubble or debris. A note on our basing grit: All Gale Force Nine basing grit is made from a porous organic material rather than sand or other minerals. This organic material absorbs glue and paint, insuring that everything stays where you want it. When using sand (or kitty litter or any other mineral), paint and glue tend to flake off over time.

This Basing Grit is a great compliment to the Fine and Super Fine grits from Hobby Round.

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

I find that the Hobby Round Basing Grits are most effective when they're mixed together. I personally use a picture of Super Fine, Fine, and Medium Basing Grits. I also have the Rocky Basing Grit but try to use it sparingly, depending on the size of the miniature. The Medium Basing Grit is similar in size to gravel. It looks a lot more like small stones when applied to a base than the two finer variations. You might want to use less of the Medium Basing Grit on smaller miniatures, such as the ones you might find in board games like Descent or Zombiecide. The individual pieces are two or three times larger than the Fine Basing Grit. The Hobby Round containers are about the size of a hockey puck but are filled to the top with basing materials. They will last quite a while if you're using them for miniature basing.
