Well, he is a frost giant...

When I was writing my Molly/Alec fic, I was trying to figure out what their height difference would look like. Turns out, Daniel Radcliffe has my back. Dan is 1-2 inches taller than Loo Brealey, but probably about the same as Molly in her shoes.

There is also a useful height comparison tool, where you can enter the height of yourself (or one character) and choose a celebrity (one that matches the height of your other character) and it will do a rough comparison of height.

Now you know.

A Height Comparison Tool? Wow! You know even more about your characters than I realised! :)

Oh and thanks again for the link to the Molly icons which I immediately made use of.

The longer you stick around here, the more you will realize how weird I am. Just so you know. I'm the type of author who has engagement rings that are never described picked out, and has given everyone family member with names and children. I think it comes from my RPGing days, when all you have to control is your own character, so you concentrate on making that character as full as possible.

I'm also quite visual, so I like to see what I'm writing, even if I never describe it.

And you're welcome! I'm glad you're getting use out of them. I made a slew of Sherlock icons, but Molly and Mycroft get all the love.
