actually ya, i think the ultra is a bit large. if you watch the sc:ghost intro, the ultra seems about the size of the thor on that sheet.

Another one, the Siege Tank:

It measures to about 3.1m, but it's a little behind the Marine. What do you think, approx. 3.5m is fine? Generally, you don't want a Tank to be too tall, anyways, the M1 Abrams is "just" 2.44 m tall.
I know. I mentioned it in the OP, but it was the only one i found.
What are you smoking? That guy back there can practically reach out and touch the gatling weapon of the Viking, Raynor is way too far to do that.Quote:
Ok, the guy back there is at the same distance, or slightly closer.
Second of all, taking concept art is 100% fail. People don't do concept art with scale in mind. Last but not least, using fanart is not the least bit credible.

Taking a closer look at the man in the background, it appears to me that the the top of the viking's cockpit is around 4x taller than the man himself. Assuming he's around 1.8 meters, that mean's the viking would be at least 7 m. Somewhat smaller than I had originally stated, but substantially larger than a mere 4.8m.
But no matter which way we try to debate this, any figure we can come up with regarding respective unit dimensions is at best nothing more than an educated guess. it doesn't help that blizzard itself hasn't really shown much consistency in this regard.
Now that I think of it, wasn't there a thread a while back that dealt with the very same issue of unit sizes.
I think it came to the conclusion that any discussion regarding unit sizes without any official confirmation or 'spec sheets' is kinda pointless in the end.
The omegalisk is probably a better measure of the ultralisk's height. The ultralisk shares the same model of the omegalisk, merely besides the fact that the tentacles are just plain spikes on the ultra. And that concept was design to replace the ultralisk in multiplayer, so I would definitely assume the two to be at near equal size.

The best i could find on the Zeratul vs Hydras cinematic is this, and it sucks, but the Hydra looks big, but probably not 4m tall. Sadly, it cannot be seen entirely:
Here, the Hydra is further away from the camera.

The part where it really looks like the Hydra is taller, is when Zeratul jumps to put his Warp Blade inside the Hydralisk's mouth, he hangs from the Hydra's head, and then lowers considerably.
I'm not sure, how taller you think it's? 3.3m? 3.5m?
(Hehe! Zeratul shows it's ass to camera at 1:32 :p)
The guy back there is not that close to the Viking:

Can you find something better? I would gladly use any better option.
Seriously nobody uses concept art for size comparison? Did you see the concept art of the Thor with only one Thor and one Marine at a 3m distance from it's feets? A classical combat scenario? I doubt it.
It's not even close.
