It is nice to see ones creations put out in a 'world' like this (you even put
the tree right where it should be! How did you know?), but it sure looks wrong
mixing scales!
Either you 'demand' minifig scale, or do something with the 'suburb' idea -
perhaps different people can be 'local government (POV artist) for different
scales?
I'm definitely against mixing differently scaled models in the same picture.
(I must make a new version of my house, in the 'correct' scale...)
