Cadcam Design: Scales






I blogged a little while back on cadcam impacts on wargame miniature production. Here is an example from Plastic Soldier. Here are a Russian AT gun and a field gun in two scales, 28 mil and 1/72 (roughly 20 mil). The models are identicalexcept for size; look at the guy with the outstretched hand.. I believe they also do the same miniatures in 15 mil.

Once you have the design sorted any scale can be produced.

  1. I really left cold by CadCam designs as they lack the character that a sculptor can put into them. But saying that these are nice

    1. I guess so, although it works fine for 'spearmen'.

  2. You can change the scale with a right-clic in properties and then just save the new file. It's not even a two-minute job!
