Bases & Tools

Miniature bases and hobby tools are where gaming and craft intersect and are the physical foundation every miniature needs. Bases and tools make the difference between a frustrating hobby experience and an enjoyable one. Noble Knight carries bases in every standard size and material alongside the tools miniature hobbyists depend on at every stage of the modeling and painting process. Bases cover the full range of standard sizes used across major game systems, including 25mm, 32mm, 40mm, 50mm, and larger oval and rectangular bases for cavalry, monsters, and vehicles. We carry plastic, MDF, resin scenic, and magnetic bases for players who transport armies regularly. Basing materials, including static grass, sand, tufts, rocks, and texture pastes, allow hobbyists to finish miniatures to display standards without sourcing from multiple suppliers. On the tools side we carry the implements every serious hobbyist uses: hobby knives, clippers, files, sanding sticks, pin vises, and the small practical tools that accumulate on any well-equipped hobby desk. This includes current product from established manufacturers alongside hard-to-find specialty items.
