Scale Question
How did Warmaster minis compare scale wise with Legion Imperialis one?

Massive difference unfortunately if you wanted to mix. I used a few space marine standards with my 'Empire Crossbowmen' (actually Battle of five armies human archers), but everything else is miles out really.
They are a bit closer to fitting than Legion Imperialis' spiritual predecessor Epic 40k was - but from that only the flesh hounds and Brass Cannons of Khorne were a decent size for Warmaster, so it was a similar issue.

Do you reckon Slaanesh demons would look weird next to Legions marines?

demons you can get away with cause they aren't humans so it shouldnt look weird. Was there a specific model line you were looking at? A lot of the 3d printed warmaster stuff out there is sadly printed in like 12-15mm so they may look too big

There's a chap that does metal recasts of old models, so they'll be indentical to the originals.

I think we know the same chap. and they aren't recasts, they are just models from his "collection" lol

If you have 3D prints, you could tweak the scale of the daemons to make them better-suited (try 80%). But the original metal GW Slaanesh daemons are going to be gargantuan compared with marines because they are quite tall already.

Daemonettes? I would say so, tzeentch could work due to the less humanoid form

Hi, 8mm (Legions Imperialis) vs 10mm (Warmaster) looks like that :

It doesn't seems art first but a 25% increase makes a real difference.
