What are your thoughts?

The situation is, I have a LOAD (I mean 40+) of old style space wolf terminators.

They are all on the old small bases.

They need to be ready for october, so they all need rebasing.

I know I could go buy the 40mm bases by mail order, or in the mixed pack, but I have been thinking of sculpting my own.

The questions are

1) What is the best material to use?

2) Will non-GW bases make the models not tourney legal?

If they're the right size then they'll be legal. Also as long as the model is predominantly GW then it should be fine.

Buying a pack of 40mm is the cheapest way about it but it depends on what you want the bases to look like.

check it out man, I will give away my secrete to 40mm bases. go to walmart or even some second hand store and look for the poker set. it will come with a ton of 40mm poker chips. they work perfect and they have some good weight underthem plus they are perfectly flat. now this could cost around 15-20 dollars at walmart or you can get lucky like i did and find a 250 piece set at a thirft store or 2bucks. good luck hunting!
