Community Event / Creation [ART?] All space stations (Salyut 1 to Coriolis) to approximate scale 1080p wallpaper

Did this for a bit of fun on a boring day at work.

I based this on a cobra mk3 being approx 40m wide, approx 2.5 maybe 3 Cobras can fit side by side into the port entrance of a Coriolis space station making that around 100m wide. I then approximated the width of the station using the port as a measuring stick.

The ISS could almost fly through and dock!

And once again I'm like "DAYUM! That's massive!

Makes me think ED could still do with a bit more sense of scale, no idea how to achieve that though.

Perhaps people working outside the entrance? I remember one of the opening sequences of B5 that began with a close up shot of of an astronaut fella working on one of the fins, then the camera pulls back to reveal the station. Boy that made it look MASSIVE!

So I take it that that means I can't dock my ISS at a Coriolis? What pad size does it require, and where in the Galaxy can I find it? ;)

Nice pic BTW, does put things into scale quite well. Have some rep.
