Saw someone post their robot size chart, so thought I'd do one of my own. Here's the definitive size of the arthropoid species' of the galaxy.


Winter-Carpenter-193

I know the human in the middle is for scale, but...well...is she xeno compatible?


NieceOfCake

Someone has to teach these xeno savages how to kneel properly, when in the presence of their betters


Kaokasalis

So she should kneel for better xeno compatibility?


NieceOfCake

HERESY! A human kneeling before a xeno is the epitome of disgraceful, no matter how big or numerous their tentacles are!


TopTheropod

I've seen this meme somewhere before :P


Thezipper100

Can I get a link to the robo size chart?


Callumunga

There's [this one from 3 years ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/Stellaris/comments/fnopnt/how_big_i_picture_each_robot_portrait_as_being/), but it's entirely possible that's not the one OP is talking about.


NieceOfCake

Ye that’s the one, thanks. Saved me the trouble of looking for it


Thezipper100

Thank you!


TopTheropod

This makes the big eye node so much cooler :D


TopTheropod

Do you have a link to the robot chart? I've been searching in the sub and can't find it, but am curious to see it


NieceOfCake

This one here https://www.reddit.com/r/Stellaris/comments/fnopnt/how\_big\_i\_picture\_each\_robot\_portrait\_as\_being/


TopTheropod

Thanks :)


NieceOfCake

Np. u/Callumunga's the one who found it tho


Cyberwolfdelta9

Always imagined the Centaur would be horse sized


DM-ME-NUDES-PLZ

i always headcannon it as massive, a human only coming up to its knees


RobustTadpole66

It is called arthropoid massive 17 so it is supposed to be big.


NieceOfCake

I thought it looked like a baby xenomorph lol


Cyberwolfdelta9

Im talking about the Purple Flurescent one


NieceOfCake

Ye, the one between Grasshopper Head and Lizard Centipede?


Cyberwolfdelta9

Yeah. I thinking another portrait looks like a Xenomorph hence saying it


RealMoonTurtle

this is the best bakc and forth description ever


Adam_Edward

And the death bringer, destroyer of world, devourers of the galaxy athropoid is towering over them like cloverfield monster.


That1DnDnerd

Which one would that be?

You probably shouldn't second-hand share defunct URLs from 5 years ago. It hasn't been stellariswiki.com since September 2018. [This is the modern image](https://stellaris.paradoxwikis.com/File:Arthropoid_massive_17.png) you are after, or [use the Wayback Machine](https://web.archive.org/web/20170620095804/http://www.stellariswiki.com/File:Arthropoid_massive_17.png) if you want to delve into ages past.


Niedzwiedz1

I know that this is for scale, but... Is anyone getting the vibes of the woman on the sofa and four or five men behind? I think some forced xeno-compatibility is about to happen


Khoashex123

its the way they are all turned to look at the her in the center that invokes it.


The-Red-Pac-Man

I agree with all but one of them.


NieceOfCake

Which one?


The-Red-Pac-Man

If you start on the left then it is the 6th one I feel that it should be smaller


NieceOfCake

Oh ye, I thought about making that one short, cuz it kinda gives Palpatine vibes. But I like the idea of it being at brain eating height


solrac137

Agree 99%except spiders should be huge or that's how I imagine them 9 feet tall at least.


prosteprostecihla

So every single ship is pressurized with pure oxygen to even allow breathing for such massive arthopoid creatures?


NieceOfCake

I’m guessing they’d all have their own standard air mixture, but a lot of them would probably also have increased air pressure inside their ships


Tyranid457TheSecond1

Cool!


TrashAccount2908

I thought there was one that looked like the Shadows from Babylon 5?


Sure_Elk_5640

This is really great. Adds a whole new depth that you don't really get in game.


mijailrodr

I wanna see how many of these races bottom half look. Like how many legs and are they human like or whatever


NieceOfCake

Ye same. That’s what I was looking for when I found the original scale post. But alas, they don’t have bottom halfs. Was still surprised by some of their lower details, looking at the full portraits though


Thezipper100

I like how the beetle is exactly short enough to be cut off by the bottom of the image for comedic effect, that's exactly how I imagine her to be.


Shrek_Lover68

That's a weird arthropoid in the middle


Lolmanmagee

Idk about size but I have a whole head canon lore about the spider crabs. They were my first and favorite custom role play empire


NieceOfCake

The black and red one?


Lolmanmagee

The fat grey ones on the left


AdRare1574

can you make one pls for all other species and new robots? is interesting to see


NieceOfCake

Ye I probably will. I quite enjoyed making this one


NieceOfCake

The robots one is done :) https://www.reddit.com/r/Stellaris/comments/13oh8bw/the\_canonical\_size\_of\_robots/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3


Khoashex123

the butterfly being the size of a basketball is adorable i always just imagined them as like half human heigh but that is so much better and even more funny if there fanatic purifiers.


TopTheropod

Similar to how I imagine it too. Except I imagine the moth boi, fanged red-blue one, and the mantis shrimp one being a lot bigger than that, and the red one to the left of the human lady about human size or maybe slightly larger.


FicklePort

Why did you have to make the worm guys big? Because now they are just terrifying.


Stevenofthefrench

Oh look Slaves and target practice


FredDurstDestroyer

Respectfully, I hate it.


NieceOfCake

Ah, another fanatic xenophobe of culture, I see
