| (...) Oh hey, thank you. I can arrange that. (...) Actually, I got the idea from LEGO. They sell these neat picture frames that are faced with a large plate and cut out. So I started making them a couple of years ago as a way to use up bulk plates (...) (20 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)

If you ever get a picture of the frame under a black light you will (...) (20 years ago, 8-Mar-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)

| | | | | Re: LEGO Scale Question
|
| (...) I was aware of that while writing but figured it would just confuse the issue more. Let's face it, if we cared that much about scale (some excepted) we wouldn't be building with Lego, we'd choose some other medium. Tim (20 years ago, 3-Mar-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)
| | | | | Re: LEGO Scale Question
|
| Hi Welshie, (...) On the contrary, your question is the crux of the issue, that being scale in the LEGO Minifig world. I am going to base my answer on a few assumptions, so please forgive me if pass along some data which you already know. "Studs" (...) (20 years ago, 3-Mar-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)

| (...) I know that this is going to be an "idiot" question, but when you say 1 stud= 1 minifig foot. What does that look like? I know I know that sounds stupid, but I am currently not at home and thus do not have my Lego pieces in front of me, so I (...) (20 years ago, 3-Mar-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)

| (...) In terms of numbers, somewhere around 1:38 to 1:44, depending on your preference. Most people seem to use one of: 1 stud (8mm) = 1 minifig foot 3 studs (24mm) = 1 minifig meter 1 minifg (42mm) = 6 feet tall But then again, many models are (...) (20 years ago, 2-Mar-06, to lugnet.build)

| | | | | Re: LEGO Scale Question
|
| (...) There really isn't anything "generally accepted." But since figs are so oddly shaped, it makes finding a standard scale practically impossible. What I've seen the most is 1 stud=1 foot, but that makes figs only slightly taller than 5 ft. But (...) (20 years ago, 2-Mar-06, to lugnet.build)
