I need tips for Avengers/Transformers Dio-Story

I'm trying to get the courage to begin my long-delayed Avengers/Transformers Dio-story, but I have a problem with the playsets:
I use two figures for each of the main human charas: a "normal" one to the scenes depicting just humans, and a small one to depict them among the robots. However, I predictably don't have any scenario in two sizes, so the charas would appear in places that grow and shrink? I need some tip to solve tis situation (not Photoshop. I suck in Photoshop unless it be something VERY basic).
Please, comment even if you don't have any idea. At least so I'll know my trouble is known by somebody (and knowing is half the tip).

You could just not worry about it? People looking will understadn what is happening...

As long as you are using that silly rug of yours I would not worry about minor details.

Yeah, unless you're planning to build backdrops and landscapes I wouldn't worry, just have fun with it.
Or you could play with perspective like this:
viewtopic.php?f=24&t=3722
Or you could resize the images in Photoshop. It's very easy once you get the hang of it.

Ok, TKW. It seems like the easy ideas are the best ones.

Well, I'll use the rug from the second episode on (I don't find it suitable for the 1st episode, which happens during WWII).

I guess the perspective tip could work at some pints where I should use charas without downscaled versions.
Thanks everyone! Uh, I need another tip... how is a russian accent depicted in written english? We depict it as stronger "r"s in spanish (just like the german one).

Mostly by using the letter K instead of C and "Da" instead of "yes"

D'oh! Jaye has said many times that I don't get the jokes, but this seems to be the first time that REALLY happens!
