The other day while trolling around the chon.com's other citizen bloggers, I came across this fascinating link offered by Ree-C Murphey: Jeff Russell's Starship Dimensions.
Fair warning...this is a graphics intensive site. Be sure you have a good broadband connection!
Jeff has collected a vast number of sci-fi ships (and some historical ones as well) and offered them to scale for comparisons. Want to know how big the Death Star is compared to the BORG ship? This place has got you covered.
Use the tabs on the top to pick your scale. Some vessels appear on multiple tabs and some just on one so check them all out and use your scroll bars to take it all in. Wowzers!
For some scale, some earth buildings are included along with Godzilla and the Stay-Puff Marshmallow man.
If you use Internet Explorer, you can even drag and drop them to compare side by side!
Brilliant!
Too bad they don't have any on the Last Exile vanships...oh well.
Busy skies!
