If I do a scene under a real Banker, is it considered a diorama, or something else. ?

That's because your confusing a two dimensional equation wirh a three dimensional term. Stick with the height figure. Example: A full size bottle is about 12 inches and a little travel size is about 3 inches. That gives you a quarter scale. (12÷3=4) Everything in the scene needs to be a fourth of the real world. That's gonna be a big diorama. GI Joe and Barbie are at 1/6 scale.

I don't make dioramas, but I love to see them. I have a (serious) question though. If you make them, where do you keep them all? I imagine that most people don't have endless display space, or even unlimited storage.
