For anyone that might be interested, these are the proportions ...

Using the Measure Metrics tool ( https://www.daz3d.com/measure-metrics-for-daz-studio ) and rounded to the nearest one-eighth of an inch and nearest whole cm.

    Is there a tool that will calculate the weight of a character based on there proportions? If there is, I'm interested in buying it!

    I honestly don't get why users care about this when you can change it all inside DS. Whenever I had to deal with multiple figures and heights in DS, I just changed their height as an afterthought to make it work. It's funny, this affects me way more in a VR app I use that uses DAZ figures since I am standing next to the model in VR.. My GF laughs when she sees me touch the floor to sync it with the floor in VR and then stand up to get a height reference, LOL

    It's for consistency. Especially useful if you're doing something like comics. You might get it wrong if you didn't memorize whatever percentage you scaled them originally.

    I do digital comics on real people (not superheroes or stuff like that but based on real folks) and I like to get a feel for how big or how small the characters would look in real life

    Point taken, I guess different uses for different users.

    Since those measurements (G8) are eerily exact as my high school measurements he's gonna weigh 149 - 155 pounds. laugh

    We can also get the measures of Michael 4 and Michael 3 with GenX2 morphs for Genesis 2 or 3.

    Having the measures is helpful also when somebody is modelling props or environments, to get their proportions realistic

    Several environments would need to be adjusted to the character size.

    For example the proper scale for Summer Island is 75%

    Here's some figure size comparisons I've done.

    This makes me think Daz Measure Metrics needs to come with a chart to compare to the real life world average for everything it measures for people into realism. This includes head size to body ratio instead of just snip and sketching then measuring how many heads tall in Clip Studio

    I would also be interested in a female version of the first post, unless there's one already done and I haven't come across it.
