My number was 6.9555, so round it up (Or in some cases down) to 7, or just keep it at 6.9. Now, if you get a very long decimal, just round it off. My height is 175cm, and the figures height is 25.2cm. In order to find the scale, you have to divide the height of yourself by the height of the figure in the picture. Now for the Third step-Finding the scale. For example, let’s say the figure in the picture is 25.2cm tall. Now, using the ruler, measure the height of the figure in your picture. So, now, I’m roughly 175cm tall (No Hayabusa helmet-If I was doing a Hayabusa helmet, I would be about 183cm tall). BUT, if you are making a Hayabusa helmet with your armour, add 8-10 cm to your height if you’re not growing anymore, and if you’re still growing taller, add 13-15cm to your height. The 8-10cm also takes into account the added height of the bottom of the characters boots, and the added height of the characters helmet. Now, If you are still growing up (Getting taller), add 8-10cm to your height so once you have finished your armour, you should be able to fit in it nicely. Here, you need to have somebody, other then yourself, measure your height in CENTIMETERS, NOT Inches! For example, let’s use my height, 168cm. Now for the Second step-Finding height of you and the figure. Once you have the picture printed, it should look like this: If you do not know how to use the printer, get somebody who knows how to use the printer to help you. Now, print the picture off your computer using the printer and common sense.

Make sure the picture has the full character in it! Make sure no parts of the figure are cut out of the picture. Now, you need to print the picture you will be using. This will not work if you have a bunch of random pictures of each separate armour piece.įor example, I will be using the Weta ODST.

But, the armour has to be on a human being, or a video game character. This step, like all the others is VERY important! You need to find a picture of the armour you are making. If you do not have a printer, use one at your school if possible, or use a friends or family members. In a few moments, I will explain each step in detail, but first off, let’s talk materials. Step 2: Finding height of you and the figure Here is how I scaled my armour, and trust me, It has never failed me so far! There are 5 easy steps to sucessful armour scaling:
