I think your scenic bases are awesome but considering the amount invested in the Uruk-hai I would keep his base the standard size.. Just my opinion :)

Scenic is my vote.

The only worry i have with the scenic option is the larger base can distort the proportions of the model and kinda make him look skinny and small if you know what i mean lol.

Duly noted tho - a scenic base would be nice to do with the piece

@Tabletop_Heroes - again duly noted Thanks

His leg positions with the out turned foot would give him a nice positioning for a precipice. .. Give him some height might counterbalance the effect of minimizing them.

I'd go standard; less likely that people will think it's a conversion that way.

Otherwise, make one of each base and test him on them both!

Or you can keep him in the standard infantry base so you can game with him :)

The more I think about it the more I am leaning to the standard base, as basing him on a display base will likely require removing of his name plate--something I would be extremely leary of doing. You could always do a display base with an insert slot for the standard base to fit within.

I would keep him on the standard base, that way you can prove he is the genuine artefact whenever you come to sell him...

You already have one (UKFB's sculpt) on a 25mm, so I'd go for cavalry scenic
