Hello there:

Does anyone here have the modeling dimensions for a Carnifex, Hive Tyrant, Zoanthroape, or Hive Guard? Be it base size, modeling height, etc. I am planning to do some scratch-building for a "Counts as" army but want to make sure I'm not modeling for advantage.

Thanks for the base info. Anyone have other measurements for reference? Thanks again.

The Carnifex is roughly around the same height as a Dreadnought, but occuplies alot more actual space. Hive Tyrants are roughly upright Fexes, although are a considerable bit smaller than them. Zoanthropes are roughly 2.5 space marines in height. I do not own any Hive Guards, so I wouldnt know their dimensions. However I'd imagine them to be roughly the size of warriors (basically any Inquisitor-scale model would roughly be the same height).

Hell, I'm not that bothered by the Stormraven. Why? Because, as it stands right now, it's "limited use".When it's shoehorned in to the Codex: Space Marines, then yeah. I'll be irked.
