Forge World release their Thousand Sons transfer sheet and as per usual it looks great.
I have used the Night Lords ones here and I’d highly recommend getting these regardless of if you play 40K or 30K as the Thousand Sons. Not cheap at £16 but well worth it for the look of your force!
Just spreading the love -Mark!
