| | Minifig scale?
|
| Hi all, Of late I've noticed a resurgence in the use of 'minifig scale' as a term. Being a mathematically inclined pedant I tend to take issue with this term as minifigs are so deformed it strikes me as impossible to define a single 'scale' to them. (...)

|
| (...) It would be nice to scale a barbie profile to the average female height and add her to the picture. Although I get mildly irked by the abuse of 'minifig scale' the main reason I did this was 'cause I thought it would look funny. (...) Perhaps (...) (16 years ago, 27-Jul-08, to lugnet.build, FTX)

| (...) Tim, You are absolutely correct in describing the minifigure as an unrealistic model of a person. If minfigures were real people they would resemble some of the unhealthiest humans with big head and extremely overweight bodies. I think the (...) (16 years ago, 25-Jul-08, to lugnet.build, FTX)

Selective compression, forced perspective and other techniques are very useful (...) (16 years ago, 27-Jul-08, to lugnet.build, FTX)

| (...) --snip-- (...) I think you're demonstrating my point here by confusing size and scale here. A 'scale' defines the ratio of each dimension of the model to the real thing. Thus HO scale is 1:87, half scale is 1:2, true nano scale is 1:10^9 and (...) (16 years ago, 26-Jul-08, to lugnet.build, FTX)

|
| Hey all, It's been years since I've posted - but wanted to share some space-related minifig work I did a while back. Many of you might remember "Battle of the Planets" cartoon from the 70s, which was the American version of Gatchaman and which I (...) (16 years ago, 9-Aug-08, to lugnet.space, FTX)

I vary my scale quite a bit even within a diorama but for buildings I probably use closer to 1:60 than (...) (16 years ago, 26-Jul-08, to lugnet.build, FTX)

| | What ever happened to polybags?

| I remember when Lego polybags were everywhere - you know, the little crinkly plastic bags that hung on racks on endcaps in Target and Walmart and even grocery stores, that contained a twenty- or thirty-piece set, usually with one minifig, for three (...)
