diorama question
Posted by woody44 on Friday, February 7, 2014 8:16 PM

I want to use a 1/72 scale huey in a diorama and was wondering if 1/35 scale figures would look/match up ok??

Hi Woody,

No, 1/35 scale figs would not go well with a 1/72 heli, unless you were doing some sort of forced perspective (not easy to accomplish). Did you mean a 1/32 Huey?

no I was actually trying to keep the chopper small due to size but I really like staying with 1/35 figures.  the dust cover for a larger chopper would cost too much......thanks
