About the Project

My better half @caileendeas saw the starter army box for The Thousand Sons when we were over to BOW/OTT some time ago. This is the journey we are both making with this Chaos chapter( I know a fair amount of the fluff and she really likes the paint scheme/colours.) So the target is to build and paint the starter box to field a reasonable army for a future game. Then adding more squads as and when they are acquired.

More Gravitas

The Tzaangors are very light weight miniatures Helena wanted more Gravitas to the models so we glued two pence pieces to the bases.

Reinforcements already!

Helena(Caileendeas) already had a unit of 30k marines for another army build but after discussing the fluff that the Thousand Sons are warriors of the long war she wanted to add them into the list.

The heads were swapped out for Thousand Son heads purchased on flea bay.

A quick conversion to give a reaper cannon to the unit and the first idea for a colour scheme…..not finalised.

Figures built and primed....and base colour

So spent a long weekend building and priming the starter set….I have lost and or deleted the build photos…..then Caileendeas put a base colour on to try and see what colours she wanted the army.

The miniatures were primed with army painter silver primer and the base colour is Talassar blue contrast, this gives a metallic look to the power armour. The Tzaangors were given one coat of aethermatic blue,this gave a greener colour to differentiate them from the rubric marines.
