So r/warhammer, what do you prefer? Do you base and then prime?

Let the glue dry before going on. When the glue is dry you have a color decision to make. My own preference is to start with a very dark green (Apple Barrel's Black Green).

If you paint armies, it could be easier to make a diorama after the painting, but sometimes it is good to think about it before you start to paint, or better before you clue the mini's about how the base should look like.
