Ok that cool and surprising simple

Wish I knew the math to covert 1:56 "28mm" to 1:18th scale

yea I can do that for scratch build stuff like in the video which i'll have to try :D

but there is a site called Fat dragon game that has some cool paper terrain i'd love to scale up.

for 1:56 to 1:18 you'd need to multiply it times 3.11111repeating... however, if you're using modern era joes, they're slightly larger than 1:18. so you could get away with multiplying everything time 3.2, maybe a little more if you feel brave :D

Very cool and fairly simple to do! Must try that myself.

That's actually brilliant in its simplicity.




And it would probably just work for 1:18th scale too. No upscaling or different materials required with this.
