Haha JohnFoA thank you for calling me a physicist.
I get it that you use 20mm as a wargaming reference and you explained quite clearly that your figures were 20mm measured foot to eye and marketed as such...I got that.
But if you take a figure that is 20mm to eyes it will be 22-23mm overall....that is all I am saying.
20mm is really 23mm.
25mm is really 27-28mm
28mm is really 31mm
Your welcome
And yes on overall size - however it depends on what you allow for distance between eyes and crown of skull. As I understand its typically between 4 and 6 inches - 100-150mm in the EU (
).
So at 4mm to 12"/300mm (1:72) add 1 1/2 to 2mm
At 4.6mm to 12"/300mm (1/65 or 28mm eye to foot) add pretty much the same maybe 1.75 mm to 2.25mm for overall.
Anyway if/when I do some figures I will have a bald headed mannikin prototype made up to a scale and hair/hat go on top but I'll be able to say this represents a person 'x' tall.
Still can't please everyone
cheers all
Hope you're able to source the figures okay.
