I thought as i was sculpting my terrain i better check the scale to a human model So I know how large to create the details etc... and now I dont know If i have gone about creating the terrain the right way!

My scale was 50cm=500m so that would work out at 1:1000 so 1m would be 0.1cm whch means my man say of an avaerage height of 1.75m would be 0.175cm (please correct me if im wrong)

So my man now looks incredably small in comparison to the terrain so do i reduce the scale to 50cm=50m (1:100) my man would be 1.75cm See comparison images of both scales.

The only thing is that i wanted a vast feel to the scene so whats the best way of achieving correct scale when modeling terrain/landscape?
