Dollhouse for a dollhouse scale for 1:12 dollhouses. Commonly used for mini armor. Used for 12 mm, and 12.5 mm figure scale miniature wargaming. 1:128: 3 ⁄ 32 in: 2.381 mm A few rockets and some fit-in-the-box aircraft are made to this size. 1:120: 0.1 in: 2.54 mm: Model railways (TT) Derived from the scale of 1 inch equals 10 feet.TT model ...
The Greek foot (πούς, pous) had a length of 1 / 600 of a stadion, [12] one stadion being about 181.2 m (594 ft); [13] therefore a foot was, at the time, about 302 mm (11.9 in). Its exact size varied from city to city and could range between 270 mm (10.6 in) and 350 mm (13.8 in), but lengths used for temple construction appear to ...
Often measured as "eye height", giving ~1:160 for 10 mm scale, and figures being 10-12 mm tall overall. 12 mm: 2 mm: ≈1:152 – 1:144: 1:152 is called 2 mm finescale in railway modelling. A newer scale, growing in popularity, closely related to 10 mm. 1:144 scale used for Japanese giant robot models (such as Gunpla) and toys.
HO or H0 is a rail transport modelling scale using a 1:87 scale (3.5 mm to 1 foot). It is the most popular scale of model railway in the world. [1] [2] The rails are spaced 16.5 millimetres (0.650 in) apart for modelling 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) standard gauge tracks and trains in HO.
In the construction and use of dollhouses, 1:144 scale represents the scale that a 1:12 scale dollhouse would have in a 1:12 scale dollhouse. This is often called Dolls' dollhouse or Dollhouse's dollhouse. At this scale, a typical house is about 50 mm (1.969 in) across. Making internal parts for such a house is a difficult task for the home ...
Both figure scales are based on the 1 mm = 1 ft calculation that reduces the average 1.72 m height of a human male to a 5.7 mm tall figure. "6 mm" is therefore used as a rounded-up reference to the scale. In 1:285 scale, a typical 20 mm base can mount approximately 3-5 infantry figures; or three strips of four figures in rank-and-file formation.
A 6 ft (183 cm) tall person is modeled as 2 + 1 ⁄ 4 in (57 mm) tall in 1:32 scale. 1:32 was once so common a scale for toy trains, autos, and soldiers that it was known as "standard size" in the industry (not to be confused with Lionel's "Standard Gauge"). 1:32 is the scale for Gauge 1 toy and model trains. It was the scale of some of the ...
The DTP point is defined as 1 ⁄ 72 of an inch (or exactly 0.352 7 mm) and, as with earlier American point sizes, is considered to be 1 ⁄ 12 of a pica. In metal type, the point size of a font describes the height of the metal body on which that font's characters were cast.
