Iron Man Scaling Help

[AnotherSpartan]

Hello, this is my first time working with scaling and require a bit of help. Basically I'm not sure how exactly I am supposed to scale, the instructions say to find out your height, and add at least an extra four-six inches. Then to divide it by the number of files there is, (sixty-four.) Then to multiply it by the current scale, I get all that, but where do I place my answer? Wheres the scale factor? Please help.

If I'd read these instructions I'd be even more lost. o.o
I'm pretty bad at scaling, but I always try to measure the whole length of the piece nad how much it would be on my body - I scale everything individually depending on piece.

Is this for scaling individual pieces, or are you trying to adjust for scale on a full model?
