A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.
This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.
Rules
- Keep it civil.
- No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
- Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
- No political or social cause agenda pushing.

OK, I came up with a new plan, and I want to make sure I'll be within the base size rules.
I'm working on a Celestial Lions conversion using the Sgt Castus model. It will be based on a 40mm base and will not be using his necron scenery. Sgt Castus is the same size as other Primaris marines, but he shipped with a 50mm base. I want to confirm I'll be OK to enter him in the contest as long as he's on that 40mm base instead.
Eeeehhhh, sure.
He’s a Primaris and plenty of other Primaris in the same kind of armor are on 40mm, so at most of a stretch he’d be an acceptable proxy, and in general his actual size isn’t ridiculous.
