How well do HO buildings look with 20mm minis?
I know HO is 1:87, but is that too big of a difference? |

People have used HO buildings with 20mm for years.
Unless it is 1figure = 1 man, then I usually recommend smaller buildings anyway, so I'd even use 15mm buildings with 20mm figures. |

Here is a guide on scale size you can refere to: link but I also agree that HO is good scale for 20mm figs. |

The pictures below from my site are of HO scale railway model buildings and accessories along with 1:72 and 1:76 (20mm) stuff: picture picture picture picture picture The figures, when right up against a door do look a little large, but for the most part, it looks fine, in my opinion, anyway.

I've used HO scale buildings for 20mm (and 1/76, 1/72) figures quite a bit and it works peachy. I've even used those JR Miniatures 15mm Stalingrad sets for one Crossfire game. Worked peachy. |
