| (...) Hi Philo, Thanks for your kind reply. I do my best. I've spent a week to come to this model and it still has some minor flaws that might need improvement, but maybe that's just my thought.. Nate (21 years ago, 29-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.technic, FTX)

|
| (...) Huh, I don't think I've heard of minifig scale being more than 1:44 (making "standard" minifigs just over 6 feet tall). Except maybe for specific projects? 1:45 would make them about 6'2.4" (1.89m) tall, 2'3.5" (72cm) wide, and 1'2.2" (36cm) (...) (21 years ago, 29-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)

| (...) I always accord minifigs 1:35 scale, possibly 1:32, because those are the closest "standard military" scales. But also, I go by the average of the minifigs' dimensions, which sort of implies they are 5' tall and very, very broad. So I am (...)

I am currently planning out a true-minifig-scale model of the battleship Fuso ca. 1944, though I am going closer to 1:35 scale given that minifigs are not truly to human propor- tions. (...)

| how do you do that? ???...??? With pieces from ONE set? I always run out of pieces or need another one of that piece (etc.). Yours look like they all belong there.

| (...) I personally advocate 1 stud to the foot, which is about 1:38. If the stud size is exactly 8mm then it's 1:38.1. If a stud size is 5/16" then it's 1:38.4. There's little difference between the two, unless you build something 14630 plates high (...) (21 years ago, 28-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.military, FTX)
