Storage Solution Project [Skulmaster]

By Skulmaster, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

Hi there,

I am currently working on a storage solution and I am missing some dimensions of components that I do not own yet.

Can anyone tell me what the dimensions of the largest hero figures are?

It looks like Karnon and Steelhorns are among the largest. I want to have them lie down and I wonder how low I can make my "Hero figure layer".

Karnon is 2 5/16 inches tall, from the base to the very top of his wooden club. Depending on how you lay him down, he can be as much as 1 1/2 inches wide (the widest from the bottom of his club to the top of his club).

Steelhorns is 2 1/16 inches tall. His widest point is from his left fist to the bottom of the axe in his right fist (assuming he is laying on his back) which is 2 1/16 inches wide.

Dear Any2cards,

Thank you for your quick reply (should have asked metric dimensions haha).

Karnon is about 59mm high it seems then. Assuming Steelhorns is laying on his back, what would his 'depth' be? As in tail to nose sort of speak. So a volume of 2 1/16 (height) x 2 1/16 (width) x 'depth'.

Would he be the Hero with the most 'depth'?

Asking the depth of characters is very difficult to determine, because they all can be laid in several ways. Further, some have "appendages/weapons" that stick out at various angles that affect measurements.

When Karnon is laid down on his back, such that his left arm is resting flat, and the top of his wooden staff is resting flat, Karnon is 1 3/8 inches (34.925 mm) deep.

When Steelhorns is laid down on his back, such that his right elbow is laying flat, and the crown over his head is laying flat, Steelhorns is 1 1/4 inches (31.75 mm) deep.

These are approximate measurements, but should be close enough for creating a storage space. I should point out, however, that there may be other heroes that are deeper, based on how they rest with weapons, etc. Not sure.

EDIT: As an example, I just picked up Nanok of the Blade. He isn't as tall or wide as Karnon or Steelhorns, but when you attempt to lay him flat, you have to either lay him on his back with his base sticking up in the air, or lay him on his side/one of his axes, with the other sticking up in the air. The former results in his depth being about 1 3/8 inches (34.925 mm) with the later resulting in his depth being about 1 1/2 inches (38.1 mm).

I find that Onefist is one of, if not the, biggest hero. Wide and awkward, he doesn't fit in some longer spaces that Karon would

Thank you. Yeah depth can vary by a lot, I'm just looking for the most optimal minimal depth value, I got some width to play around width, but don't have much depth value to spare as I want to create another layer on top of the hero figures.

Do you happen to have some dimensions on One Fist?

Perhaps I should resort to store a few (oddly shaped) heroes with the monsters, and save the place that I have now to accommodate the majority of the heroes that are 'regular' shaped.
