This article refers to the real world company that produces models for Games Workshop games. For the type of planet in the fictional Warhammer 40,000 universe, see Planets of Warhammer 40,000.
Forge World is the name of a subsidiary company of Games Workshop run by Tony Cottrell, which designs and sells resin models for the various Games Workshop games, primarily Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Fantasy Battle.

Forge World models are usually models of rare or variant vehicles, from Super-Heavy Tanks and Titans to Fightercraft, Dragons, and Daemons. They also sell transfers and bitz that can be used to customize official Games Workshop miniatures. Most Forge World models require special rules (found in the Imperial Armour series of books), as well as one's opponent's permission to use them in a game. The quality of the models is considered to be superb as the resin allows for more accurate details than metal or plastic.

Cottrell has also recently collaborated with Warwick to produce the various Imperial Armour rules supplements.
