Hey guys My old Thousand Sons thread is no more, so I thought I'd put up my new Ahriman here, and in case you don't check out the forge forum, I wanted some base feedback: So I'm well into my second Thousand Sons army after selling the first. I did them once with a basically earth tone/brown type of basing scheme. I usually sprinkle in some of the fancier resin bases I see that I like. This is my latest Ahriman on such a base. (It would fit in with a lot of schemes so I'm not too worried about it.) So here are two Tzaangors I painted. One is on a base from the GW line from the Sector Imperialis, the other is on a typical base I used in sand colours with Cork stone work. (I would probably rim either/both bases with Black like Ahriman's) So that's the basic consideration I have right now. Some of the characters would get 'fancy' sand bases from resin collections I have of bases. But if I go with the Sector Imperialis it's a different look... more along the lines of city fight. here are some other examples of how I paint those imperialis bases on my armies that do use them: Some Deathwatch on my Imperialis Bases: Some of my Custodes with those same bases: Now here is an example of some of my sand/cork bases in my Grey Knights: and some of the sand/cork mixed in with some resin bases for characters: So I think that's a good sample size for you to see. Now if you were taking my Thousand Sons into account, which bases do you think they would look better on?
