Jamafore Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 How well to vehicles like rhinos and dreadnoughts scale with 1/144 scale gunpla parts? There are several weapon packs that I like the look of, but am curious as to if I could use them or is the size just too different?

Closet Skeleton Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 A regular dreadnought is quite a bit shorter than a 1/144 scale mobile suit but has hands like 5 times the size so that's kind of a meaningless question unless you get specific. My only 1/144 scale stuff is in an attic somewhere but if I remember correctly they're about as tall as a rhino is long. Barrel sizes can be quite similar I guess. Gun caliber scales pretty linearly and 40k has some silly things like demolisher cannons so radically out of scale sources are always going to be usable.

FergyFergz Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I do!Got kits ranging from 1/144 to 1/60, and honestly it's not just the scale of the kit you need to look at. Even within scales the size of suits varies WILDLY. For example my Nu Gundam 1/144 is a full inch taller (to the head) than the 1/144 Talgeese What are you eyeing up??

Jamafore Posted March 17, 2020 Author Share Posted March 17, 2020 Looking at using the gatling barrel for this on a Contemptor mainly and the misile launcher for this as HK missile launcher Sorry for big pictures, Thank you Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/362612-question-for-those-who-model-both-40k-and-gunpla/#findComment-5492329 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jukkiz Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 gatling could work, maybe...though if you can, there´s far better gatling looking gun in the build divers side also, if you don´t mind other parts or have some ideas, there´s this toohttps://www.hlj.com/1-144-scale-builders-parts-system-weapon-005-ban982259 https://www.hlj.com/1-144-scale-hgbc-giant-gatling-ban996731 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/362612-question-for-those-who-model-both-40k-and-gunpla/#findComment-5492381 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamafore Posted March 18, 2020 Author Share Posted March 18, 2020 Didn't think about the shield/gatling combo, though the other gatling I worry about being too big Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/362612-question-for-those-who-model-both-40k-and-gunpla/#findComment-5492691 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jukkiz Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Usually the build divers option kits are for 1/144 scales Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/362612-question-for-those-who-model-both-40k-and-gunpla/#findComment-5492837 Share on other sites More sharing options...
