Need help for new custiom peice

Okay, what figure scale ( 1/6 1/8 ) would stand around the same size/height as a 1/72 battroid? reason why i ask this is because i would like to try to make a few custom Valk Girl models using my favorite charecters and my surplus of styrene sheets and 1/72 model kits.

Hi,

the hasegawa battroid is 17/18 cm high (guess it's around 7 inch.) and the Arii 1/6 Minmay is around 27/28 cm (11.7 inch. ?).

1/8 figures are around 20 cm high, that's the scale you need

[ewilen]

If the Hasegawa battroid is about 7 inches, then assuming a female height of 5'3"=63", you'd need a female figure in 1/9 scale. But where can you find 1/9 figures?

1/8 would be a little on the big side; 1/10 would be a little small. 1/6 would be much too big unless you are dealing with 6' tall women.

alrighty, thanks everyone, for your help. now i have one last question, of any charecter from any of your favorite anime, who would you all most like to see as a ValkGirl and wich VF would you like to see A/J/D/S and maybe a 19 if i can find a suitable kit. (provide pic of lucky lady too please and you just may get your favorite Valk Girl Deliverd to your door )

VF-0S? I would say create something different:

GBP or Thunder Hammer Valk Girl like the Gundam EX-S Girl figure! I wish I can find that figure now...

[The_Major]

yaknow thats a pretty good idea, Thanks neova. Maybe ill get to work sculpting and make a Misa GBP-1, to go with that short comic thing. compleat with detatchable buttplate

And i do think that the Thunder Hammer and the SDP-1 are sorly overlooked as well.

heh now my creative juces are a flowin, im off to create!.

YF-19/21 are much bigger valks than the VF-1---in 1/72 they could probably use a larger scale female figure.

[The_Major]

Thanks everyone for all your help. and as soon as i find a Charecter to use ill get to work, i dont think im going to a custom character ( a character like Misa, where a kit in the needed scale doesnt exist) maybe ill start with the Eva girls.... hmmm.
