Yes, some modelers use models of different scales to cleverly force perspective and create the illusion of distance in their scenes. If not, the figures will either look unnaturally small or gargantuan in comparison to the tank. That means, if you have a 1/35 scale tank, then the figures should also be 1/35 scale (54mm). One last bit of advice: If you plan to build multiple models that have a relationship to each other, perhaps in a diorama, you should keep the scale constant. Without belaboring the point and sifting through arcane reasons why, you’ll find that certain models are typically made in common scales: 1/35 scale for armor and military-related ground vehicles 1/72, 1/48, and 1/32 scales for aircraft 1/20, 1/24, and 1/25 scale for cars and trucks 1/9 and 1/12 scales for motorcycles. With the basics out of the way, you start to get into the wonderful world of model scales. A 1/35 scale howitzer is 35 times smaller than the full-size original it is based on. ![]() A 1/48 scale model is 48 times smaller than its 1/1 scale fellow. Obviously, the larger the denominator in the scale fraction, the smaller the model will be in relation to the real thing, and, therefore, the smaller the scale. For example, let’s say you model a 1/10 scale replica of a car measuring 10 feet long at full size, the model will be 1 foot long. ![]() If you build a 1/10 scale model, 1 inch on the model would equal 10 inches on the full-size subject. That means 1 inch (or any measurement) on the replica equals 1 inch on the actual subject. If you build a full-size replica, as a group in Russia recently did of the Razor Crest spaceship from The Mandalorian, it is a 1/1 (1:1) scale model. Scale is how we describe the size of the model as a fraction or ratio compared to the full-size subject. When we build and finish a model, whether it’s a single-piece bust, seven-part figure, or a tank with 800 individual pieces, we are making a miniature replica of the full-size version (whether real or imagined). We field this question (or ones like it) pretty often, but just about as frequently, we are asked to help readers understand what scale means. In other words, although the iPhone X's diagonal is 6.3% longer, its area is only 0.5% bigger (iPhone X also has a big cutout and curved edges, but we are not taking them into account - even with that simplification, the screen area is still very similar).“Which is closer to HO scale, 1/72 or 1/90?” So even though the first iPhone has a longer diagonal, the screen size is almost the same as iPhone 8 plus'. And what do you get? 4.8" for screen width, 2.7" height, and 12.93 in² screen size. Repeat the steps for iPhone 8 Plus, choosing a 16:9 aspect ratio and 5.5-inch diagonal. In our case, those are equal to 5.3", 2.45", and 13 in². As a result, you obtain screen dimensions: width and height and the screen area.The first value of the aspect ratio is 2.17, and the second value is 1. As that ratio is still not very popular, you can't select it from a drop-down menu - write it down manually in advanced options fields. Let's start with iPhone X with an aspect ratio equal to 2.17:1. We could expect that the former would have a bigger screen, but we can't forget about aspect ratios! iPhone X has a narrower screen with a 2.17:1 ratio, and iPhone 8 Plus has a standard 16:9. Let's say we want to compare two smartphones: The Apple iPhone X with a 5.85-inch display, and the iPhone 8 Plus, which has a 5.5-inch screen. ![]()
