I need help. To not end up with a five by five feet building, I decided to reduce the scale of my building so the windows is a 1 x 2 trans clear brick. I must use a SNOT technic to respect the apperance of my building. My problem is that I was (...) (20 years ago, 6-Aug-06, to lugnet.build)

--SNIP== (...) Not quite true. You could fit two minifigs in a car very slightly smaller than six wide (big maybe 5.5 wide, more easy 5.8 wide) but for all practical purposes six wide is the smallest. Tim (20 years ago, 20-Jul-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)

(...) Tim, even at 6' that proportional waist size would make John Candy look like an Olsen twin. But you're right, there's no reason to even pretend you can truly build in minifig 'scale.' (As to the comment you made about two 200 pound people (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jul-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)

--SNIP-- (...) Here is where you get into the fat minifigs vs short minifigs debate. I like to assume my figs are about six foot tall and built like John Candy. As such 5 studs = 6'. Of course I build most of my cars four-wide but I freely admit (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jul-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)
