Hello everyone!

As the title says, I need an opinion about the bases I'm preparing for my Thousand Sons team.
The ambient I've imagined and that I'm trying to reproduce is an ancient and forgotten library full of books filled with spells and rune on the tiles... but, for some strange reason, I'm not able to decide wich color use to paint the space under the tiles.

Here are some pics, I hope you will help me with your opinion and advice... or maybe just voting the poll!







PS: it's not particularly difficult, but I'm thinking on making a tutorial about how I've made those bases... someone interested?

Well, I think it's decided... seen there is someone interested, I will make the tutorial ASAP!
(I'm currently working on other Thousand Sons, so I'm going to need more bases soon... you'll probably see it completed in a week at maximum.)

Regarding the black or brown dilemma, I'm glad to see that the difference between the two options is so slight even for you, guys...

Thank you all for the compliments and thank you for your suggestion, Slipstream. Actually I don't own another brown besides the Calthan Brown (which is the one I've used for the bases "frame"), but maybe mixing it with some Bleached Bone... I'll consider it an option.

Well, well... seems that the par behind the two colours it's gone, and the brown as detached his rival... interesting challenge!

PS: I've started working on the bases tutorial!
