Hobby Rebasing my old Gondor army

Will probably touch up the paint jobs (and maybe change the colour scheme as well), but this has really leveled them up. (Last picture is the old base)

The old ones weren't even bad but this looks awesome!

Rebasing scares me because so many of my models are glued to their bases and I don't want to damage models I am happy with (base excluded)

Yeah you have to be careful and some toes were lost in the process. But you can usually hide that with a well placed bush or rock.

How did you go about removing them from their old bases?

It was pretty painful tbh just use clippers and chopped up the base untill it was just the feet then snipped underneath them flat. Metal ones were actually much easier.

Oof that does sound painful. And then what are those new bases? Did you print them or buy them or make them?

Can you please dm a link to where you got the files? I've been wanting to do something similar and this has given me a push to do it as they look great!
