1:25 Scale Question

[arthur]

Gents,
Have a hard time determining the height (in inches or cm) of a male figure in 1:25 scale.
Unfortunatelly have nothing to go by, all my figs around that scale are either 75mm or 90mm.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
A.

Hi Artur!

An average person of 180cm should be 72mm in 1/25.
A suggestion is to get hold of the Preiser academy figures in 1/25.

Arthur, This is easy. Go to the top of the Planet figure page and click on the scaler. Put in the actual height of your figure (example, 60"), then the scale you want the figure to be and it will give you the result in inches or centimeters. I take the result and reduce my anatomy chart to the scale height that is given. THe Planet figure scaler is a great tool that i also use when making weapons. It's a great free resource.~Gary

All good suggestions above, but why make it difficult? This one is REALLY a no brainer!

Okay, there are approximately 25mm to the inch. The small left over fraction is inconsequential for a figure in this scale. So, if each millimeter equals 1/25 of one inch, then in 1/25 scale, each millimeter equals one inch!

Simple. Figure out how tall you want the figure (or anything else for that matter) in inches and then simply change inches to millimeters! Done!

See, now wasn't that easy???
