My head is smaller than my body...?

I know this is in the wrong spot, or something. Anyway...

I have problems with my head size vs body size. Or is it just the armor I'm wearing?
I don't know, everything just looks un-proportional. Then I look at some screenshots,
and those guys look perfect!

Not fair >=[

I assume you're a cartoon mouse.
 
The approx ratio of a healthy human would be a 1:5/1:6 ratio. Meaning that your body should be 5-6 times taller then your head.

But yes, I've noticed that the heads look a bit small.. But you often have armour who build up around your neck, so you sort of lose those few cm/inches.

Actually, from top of head to chin, it should be between 1/7th and 1/8th your total height on a healthy, active human adult (which we presume the hero/ine to be.)  In comics and anime, they increase the body so the ratio is closer to 1/10th.

I haven't bothered checking the model, but it seems mostly normal to me, perhaps a little on the large size (indicating a lower average height, which fits the time frame.)

That must be Hylain cleverly concealing his identity by claiming to be Stewie from Family Guy. No doubt plotting to take over the world.  :lol:

But in all seriousness... the games head looks perfectly fine in comparison to the body.
 
@ Kagelor.

1:5 - 1:6 = 1/6th - 1/7th. So, lets just imagine I never mentioned 1:5... Cause 1:6 to 2:15 is the most correct answer.

Scroll down a bit and you'll see the picture. Its not super accurate, but good enough for me.

So yeah, 1:5 was far off, but 1:6 was dead on.

(When I write 1:6 I of course mean that 1 body (just the body) is equal to 6 heads, so that you eventually end up with 7 heads. So 1:6 and 1/7th is the precise same thing)
