I have a couple of mini figures that I want to enlarge to make them look like giants compared to the other mini figures around them. Is there any way to increase the scale / enlarge a single brick or series of bricks / mini figures? I don’t see any option in Mecabricks online 3d software or any of the other common ones like stud.io or draw etc. I imagine this is because you can’t buy “enlarged” pieces and that enlarging them would not allow them to snap together. But this is for a purely render / picture project so not as worried about accuracies of whether or not these pieces are available as much as just trying to create a giant effect from a standard mini figure. Are there any ways to do this? If not an option with any standard LEGO 3d software then what options would exist using external tools such as exporting from one format and import to another tool and enlarging like other 3d software. Thoughts and recommendations?
This is not possible in Mecabricks. You can always increase the scale in Blender of these parts to make the minifig look bigger.
Thank you Sim, I'll experiment with Blender then. Your reply is much appreciated
How do i make something smaller or scale to enlarge or shorten?
@LoganLin, you can't change the scale of parts in Mecabricks. Why would you want to do it?
@ispaydeu scaling mini figures in Blender makes them look terrible, so if you want to have some mini figures look bigger than others and still have a nice looking render, you could use forced perspective (the technique used in a couple scenes of the Lord of the Rings to give the appearance that the hobbits were shorter than full-sized men). That's what I would do personally.
That wouldn't work for me, because I want to increase the size of a transparent soccer ball to use as a droideka shield... 😦
I would like to reduce the size of the headphones. They are to big for a lego head. Its that posible?
