Well in 3ds we can model it in any size, and then scale it down to what we need
after. We can also change the units on the fly to a specific scale IE metric.
Tho leaving it units works better (especially in a game engine scenario)
because then you can adjust the units per whatever.
Also if something looks broken and you know your scaling it down, or the area
of the mode is not going to be visible you can get an idea faster if you want
to spend that time with it or just hide it >..> <..<
