yeah i know the theory behind it, but thats due to over proportiond for example a imperial gurdsman has the same proportions as a 1/45th-1/50th ie head size arm width for example. so 1/48 has been a traditional choice.
but in hand i have a mongoose 1/65th warrior and in the other hand i have a 1/72nd warrior and differance is very slight,
but a mia2 by mongoose at 1/65th scale compared to a 1/48th kitec T-80 (not the best comparison but its all i got lol) the diferance is huge.
thats all im trying to say.
