Default Re: basing tutorial

question.......I use basing sand (made by GW ) but I do all of the basing after the model is assembled and on the base. I do this because I found affixing the model done and painted to the compleated base sometimes affects the detailing on the base itself if it is painted. does anyone else have this problem. if not I use modeling glue on the base and spread it with a toothpick then dip the mini to the ankles in the sand jar. this covers all the glue with sand. then I take off the excess with my finger and if need be a old modeling knife. is this a horrible idea. or also if there a easy way to prevent damage to the paint on the mini or base if I affix after
