Global Scale Modeller

Hey there guys....

Where can I find references for 1/35 scale buildings such as farm house and barns.
For me I feel its too costly to buy diorama kits of these when I can rather build them.

Thx in advance

I am busy building small scale farm type building right now for my D-Day build..
I will post up soon but do as I did and just Google for images of your chosen building and then use artistic licence to create a similar building.
Use your figure for scale reference. He is gonna be around 6 feet tall...
Good luck..

Well first off your scale is 1/35. So from what I recall from what I've read is that means 1 inch would equal 35 inches (I don't speak metric so you might have to do some conversions). If my math is right, which it probably isn't, around 10-11" tall X 13-14" wide X 17" long. I could be completely wrong but hope this helps. And if I am wrong then well I'm American so what do you expect

Thx for the replies

Currently I am trying to build from photographs but there is always some area or part that does just not look correct to scale

Try to use a know size, such as a door or window then apply the scale to it.

i.e. 6' 6" door height = 78" scale 1/35

so 78 / 35 = 2.228" or approximately 2 1/4 " (2.25")

to scale up 2.25 x 35 = 78.75 "

the 35 (1/35) is the scale factor.

Hope this helps

Therefor .....


60" / 35 = 1.714"

48" / 35 = 1.371"

36" / 35 = 1.02857"

30" / 35 = 0.85714

24" / 35 = 0.68571"

12" / 35 = 0.3428571"

6" / 35 = 0.1714"

Hope this helps

The imodelkit app has a scale converter on it. Just put in the size and it converts it to whatever scale you want. HTH
