It's also good to get a clue what your limitations are and I'm still making progression... I don't have the excavator. I (...) (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.

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)
