I noticed that Echoco (SNAFU) on Shapeways took down all of his 1/900 scale aircraft, auh! How much of a difference is 1/700 vs 1/900 scale aircraft; size that is? 1/700 looks to be slightly bigger. Could someone post a pic maybe of a model aircraft from those two scales as a size comparison for me?

So on a big plane like that you're looking at a half-inch difference.
