What are Scale Models?
A scale model is simply a three dimensional, proportional replica of a physical object. The “scale” of a model usually is expressed as a fraction of its full-size counterpart. For example, a 1/6 scale figure of a 6′ person would be 1′ tall. And the proportions of that subject would be reproduced faithfully, head to foot. Put in the reverse, it would take 72 1/72 scale F-16 Falcons end-to-end to equal the length of the real thing.
