Greetings, I know it would be best if i just mesured it out but I am curious about the standards used round here: When you guys make young chars out of mill people (in order to fill the gap between 11 and 30years), how do you scale your figures, i mean, what is the percentage for the body and for specific body parts?

Hiya, I've been experimenting a lot with making the figures look younger/older, also. It seems pretty easy to make the body look young, by just generally smoothing and slimming, and remembering that during adolescence the long bones (e.g. thighbones) lengthen first, so I think tweaking the "stretch" morphs helps a lot. The tough part I have found is the face. The preset dials for "young" and "old" are pretty dissatisfying imho. I think I am going to resort to pulling out some old art textbooks/references and review the "rules" for proportioning younger faces... Drew

Here you go guys...check this link. I also like the look of the MilGirl(preteenVic),made to look like a late teen/early 20's. SWAMP

Thanks for the link. It's a shame I didn't see that thread at the time, Netherwork's scaling pose thingy looks like the sort of thing I would use all the time. Not all of us are 6' 2" westerners and I run into trouble trying to make characters who aren't and have clothes that fit.

Netherwork kindly sent me his young millenium pose, and it works well. This is my first attempt to make a more realistically proportioned young lady.
