I've re-uploaded it with a double on a white background (refresh might be needed).

THX very much WhyMe

Re: Mohawk19k's P5M-2

She's horribly out of scale, on the order of 50% or so.


With the MAD boom she should be 201 px long, you have her 295.

RGR, my first try......working to fix it....thank you!

Yes, out of scale.


My best guesses:

1.) you scaled the hatches on the plane to the same as on what would be a ship. In real life, you have to duck down and crawl through them.

2.) you didn't take into account the MAD boom in length. By my rough calculations (mostly by having done this myself), that would account for the error.

Don't worry, I've just discovered that Darth Panda's C-5 is also out of scale.

I fear many of the planes can be out of scale. Expecially the older ones...

Oh many are, but most are within a fudge factor of 5% or less. I've considered doing a survey of all the planes, but I'm not sure it would be appreciated by everyone else.

I wouldn't mind, I know (or predict atleast) there are scaling errors in my own contributions, so atleast I would know what needs to be redone then.
