how would you make 1:200 and smaller people? I probably wont need 1:300 where they'd be dots, but anyone have any idea on how you could make them with at least a tiny bit of detail? or must i really use little bits of colored wax?

I would do something with Sculpy or milliput. Roll out a snake for the body and cut it to length. You could play with bits of wire for arms and doing a small crease for a neck.

Plasticstrut....
They make them for architecture models..... (did I spell that right???)
Civilians, in rather static posed.

spectre wht ru sculpting mate ?
what figures ?and how tall should they measure ?
i'll have a crack for you if you give me some measurements and let you know the best way?

1/200th scale people would be about .360 inches tall, based on a person 6 feet tall. That is right at 3/8ths of an inch. In other words, that is pretty darn tiny. I think Z scale model train stuff is 1/220th scale. Preiser makes a bunch of them. Hit the link.

HI Spectre,

I just found your question about small figures.

Ship modelers have access to 1:350 and 1/700 photo-etched figures. Some European companies may even make them in /200, /400, etc.

Look at White Ensign Models WEM

Hello,

GHQ makes some excellent fully articulated metal 1/285 figures. See http://www.ghqmodels.com/

Hope this helps.

Cheers, Richard
