Ship scale reference

Recommended Posts

Updated with A-Wing and 6 man squad. Squad is approximate, using ship cockpits as reference. Size based on how many people can/are supposed to fit inside. Also, note that the dots represent a human from from above. If these had bases (as in a mini from Legion) the footprint would be twice as big. The dot references a humanoid without a base, since the ships lack one as well.

They’re the same length (as seen here) but the AT-TE is less than half the AT-AT’s height. That’s why it had to crawl up

The at-at in the rebels cartoon were prototypes that were about twice as big as normal at-at

This is really cool, and thanks for putting your time into this. 

Does Slave 1 seem a bit off scale to anyone else? 2 pilots should fit into the cockpit, but the scale of the humans looks like you can fit 12 people in there. The Lambda seems big as well, but again it's just the cockpit.

Lambda and Slave I schematics

The Slave 1 cockpit actually has two stories.

The Lambda always seem oversized to what i’d expect too. But their cockpits hold 6 people (I believe) - which kind of fits with that squad of 6 that Aldous has pictured.

Yea I was talking to a friend about that. I guess they are in scale, but still seem rather large.

No problem. Yeah, if you look at the inside of the Slave 1, it's roomy as all get out. There's 3 seats in each level of the split cockpit. But even then, those seats float in the middle of some empty space, creating such a huge cockpit canopy. Same for the shuttle. You can fit 6 people in there without cramping the space. This one is less surprising to me these days, as a group of Smuggler players in an SW RPG I ran a while ago hijacked an Imperial Shuttle. I argued the amount of cargo space they had. I was like....oh..... when I looked it up. Those things are huge. lol

they seem big to me too, but compare to what was seen in the movies, such as Solo being loaded onto Slave I, they seem to be the right scale, and really too big for legion

I've been 3D printing various ships for Legion... the U-Wing. 

If a request can be made -- what would the Y-Wing look like in the comparison image? I've been having trouble with it because there seems to be two different lengths depending on the source I reference.

The larger number refers to the Clone Wars-era BTL-B Y-Wing, the smaller one to the stripped-down single seat BTL-A4 flown by the Rebellion, so if it's the latter you're after 16.24m is the correct length, so about 346mm in 1/47. RebelScale.com goes into all that stuff in the kind of excruciating detail I enjoy and the guy doing it seems to have a pretty balanced and fair-minded approach when stated-canon and actual screen evidence disagree, or if there are conflicts between two or more ostensibly canon sources.

Also, I'm not a big fan of that image up above, the A-Wing is far too big - 7m screen-size A-Wing or nothin', IMO :P
