(...) That's looking real tasty. Yeah, the different-size dishes are what got me into microfig too... ;-) So what's the scale difference? I found that the dishes sort of suggested about 1/8 minifig scale. I was once a bit of a sceptic, but I tells (...) (21 years ago, 2-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

It won't. What I'm saying is that a 2x-downsampled (...) (21 years ago, 2-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.publish.photography)
