Way too small. You might look into 1/35 or 1/48 scales.
|
Every time I hear "in my opinion" or "just my opinion" makes me want to strangle a puppy. People use their opinions as a shield that other poeple can't critisize and that is bs.
If you can't defend or won't defend your opinion then that "opinion" is bs. Stop trying to tip-toe and defend what you believe in. |

1/32nd and 1/35th will both be to big for grot tanks
1/48th scale light tanks and 1/64th scale medium tanks are almost right ..thou both will need modding to look right
(rember the grot tanks are only buggy sized ....) the weapons will be to weedy to look right

I should look at 1/72 scale kits. Flames of War is 15mm which is 1/100.
1/72 is equivalent to 20mm scale. Pick larger vehicles and beef them up with extra armour plates and bigger weapons.
There is a huge choice available and the kits are pretty cheap.

1:100 real-world tanks will be about the right width and length, but far too low - not a problem, so long as you replace/extend the turrets with something taller and orky looking.

1/100 is WAY too small for 40k (even for grots).
A FoW sherman is smaller than an SM bike.
1/72 minimum for grot tanks, or even some 1/48 scale WW2 tanks (the small ones, like Matilda - not a king tiger).

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
