[QUOTE="mgbeach, post: 5362800, member: 89766"] I was making some paper standup minis and asked the same question over here.. [url=http://www.ddmspoilers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3103]ddmspoilers.com • View topic - Heights of different mini sizes[/url] Got some good responses, a couple of which were.. [I] Ah, that's an interesting question. Well, there is a height chart in the 3.5 manuals that shows the average heights of creatures, you could just multiply it by 30mm...
