Hello and thank you for your time!

​

I have recently been drawn back to my Thousand Sons with 11th edition, and I'd really like to get more of them painted up and ready to go. Of course, we all know the experience of painting our Rubricae trim, and I hopes to speed my process up to get things ready to go.

​

So I would like to bring out the airbrush that I have hardly used for my basecoat of Thousand Sons blue.

​

My main question: does anyone have experience prepping Thousand Sons Blue for airbrushing? Less pressingly, is there anything I should consider differently for the same with Ahriman blue?

​

That's about it, but any of tips are appreciated. I would not like to prime gold just in case anyone would suggest that. I'm not a fan of that way of things.

​

Thank you!

Created with Warhammer Age of Sigmar: The App

App: 1.32.0 | Data: 432

I've played 40k since 10th edition launched, and Heresy since the last few months of 2nd edition. I know those systems well. But I have only played I think three games of AoS, and the first two were with Soulblight Gravelords at the start of the edition.

Fast forward to now, and I'm not sure if I have the flow right. Obviously we want to cast spells and get weird, but I don't have a strong basis for the game as a whole to go from.

The mission for the event will be Bountiful Equinox for every round.

So for the list!

12 Enlightened is a lot and I'm aware of that! I also know they are our best damage unit. Will they pass the 40 Clanrats at -1 to be hit and wounded stat check (I'm expecting 80+ from one friend)? Probably not. But I'm not here to meta game and list tailor against him so I'll take what comes and hope I have the damage for other things.

I also know that Skyfires are just okay. I figure with 12 Enlightened, handing out a hit bonus to those fellas will come in handy.

Kairos is a beast. Kairos is cheating. I love his casting and want him around.

Spawn are cheap and the extra Spawn makes it harder for them to play around.

Curseling seems great. Cheap, allows the Enlightened to select Crit 2 Hits instead of extra rend more often or combos with it to deny a lot of saves. And 2 casts plus one in combat? Heck yeah.

I wish I could run 2x20 on the Blue Horrors but points didn't pan out for that. 30 total seems usable to me.

Again, I'm not sure if there is anything I'm missing or if I need some sense knocked into me. Let me know! I appreciate any guidance. Thanks!
