A Protoss colony world

I had an interesting idea for how to rebase Azrael. I have been rebasing a lot of my Dark Angels stuff from the 25mm bases to the 32mm bases. To facilitate this, I bought three base packs that each contained 20 32mm bases, 3 50mm bases, and 5 46x75mm oval bases (obviously for Age of Sigmar). I mainly wanted the 32mm ones, but the 50mm ones are useful to me for my Khorne Daemonkin army, specifically my recently-acquired metal Flesh Hounds (I even just so happen to have the exact number of bases so each of my metal hounds gets one! ). The oval ones are largely wasted for me, or were, that is, until I thought of a neat way to rebase Azrael, and that is to put him and his Helm Bearer on one of those oval bases together. What does Dakka think, is this a pretty good idea, or is putting Azzy on a nonstandard base gonna get me in trouble if I decide to play him? I likely won't ever play him in tournaments since he isn't very good anymore, so my concern on that is probably moot. If I do this, I will post pics and show you guys, and I'm open to ideas on how to spruce it up and make it really cool!

In case you were wondering, the models themselves are already painted, but I may touch them up a bit as part of this, as I didn't do them any higher than tabletop standard really.

My armies (re-counted and updated on 11/7/24, including modeled wargear options):
