Description
So, I saw a couple height charts for Steven Universe around the interwebz, but the ones I could find only showed the fusions and primary Gem's in relation to Steven.Being curious I decided to throw this together.
All heights are based off of observed scale(between characters(mostly in relation to Steven)) from within the actual show and so far everything seems to match up.
From shortest to tallest:
Pebbles
Earth Beetle
Larimar
Aquamarine
Steven
Ruby
Sapphire
Bluebird Azurite
Peridot (without extensions)
Amethyst
Carnelian
Chert
Connie
Peridot (with extensions)
Flint
Spinel
Jade
Teenage Connie
Teenage Steven
Lapis
Pearl
Nephrite
Rainbow Quartz 2.0 (Steven and Pearl)
Greg
Stevonnie
Zircon
Rutile Twins
Bixbite
Bismuth
Rhodonite
Yellow Jade Fusion
Big Pink Steven
Orange Spodumene
Garnet
Rose
Amethyst (Not Overcooked)
Holly Blue Agate
Steg Fusion
Snowflake Obsidian
Jasper
Smoky Quartz
Watermelon Tourmeline
Crazy Lace Agate Fusion
Topaz (Fusion is same size)
Sun Stone
Pink Diamond
Rainbow Quartz 1.0 (Rose and Pearl)
Ruby Fusion (x5)
MegaPearl Fusion
Corrupted Jasper Fusion
Opal
Sardonyx
Flourite
Corrupted Jasper Fusion (Full Standing Height)
Blue Diamond
Yellow Diamond
Sugilite
White Diamond
Malachite
Flourite (Full Standing Height)
Malachite (Full Standing Height)
Alexandrite
Godzilla Steven
Obsidian
(Unfortunately I could not find an appropriate scene of Malachite at 'standing rest' with which to compare, so I did not include her in this chart)
EDIT1: it occurs to me I should mention that all individual character art used for this graph is from the wikia. (See EDIT3.1 below)
I make no claims to having actually drawn them, only to having pasted them together into an image.
EDIT2: updated to include new smol Peridot.
EDIT3: updated to include Blue and Yellow Diamond.
EDIT3.1: The Blue Diamond image is from xxvalrosxx.tumblr.com and is the only full body standing image of Blue Diamond I could find that at least similarly matched the style of the other images used. Obviously I do not claim to have actually drawn the image. Please go to xxvalrosxx's tumblr to support their art.
(Reverted: See EDIT8 below)
EDIT3.2: It seems xxvalrosxx's Tumblr no longer exists. I dunno if they changed their Tumblr name or was legitimately pulled down. Ill leave the link up for archive purposes, and in case it is temporary.
EDIT4: updated to include Malachite. Both on "all fours" and at full standing height. ("all fours" Image obtained from the wiki, full standing height is the wiki image edited by me)
EDIT5: double checked Sardonyx's height. While her height fluctuates between scenes and on average is shorter than Sugilite, Ive noticed both their proportions are a bit odd. Even scaled up to match the taller of the fluctuations, Sardonyx is still shorter than Sugilite. It seems Sugilite has some short legs compared to the rest of her body, while Sardonyx has very long legs as compared to hers. Coincidentally Sardonyx's position on the chart has not moved.
EDIT6: updated to include Bismuth.
EDIT6.1: forgot to add Bismuth to the description list.
EDIT7: updated to include Smoky Quartz.
EDIT7.1: forgot to mention, I re-adjusted Jasper's height. Smoky Quartz and Jasper are about equal height(I think Smoky edges her out a bit), and Smoky comes up to about Sardonyx's knee. My old placement had Jasper well above that, so I had to correct Jasper.
EDIT8: Updated Blue Diamond with artwork from the wikia. Updated Yellow Diamond with the most recent artwork from the wikia.
EDIT9: Updated to include an Amethyst Guard, and Holly Blue Agate.
EDIT9.1: Corrected a minor Blue Diamond placement mistake, from Edit 9.
EDIT10: Added Aquamarine, Zircon, the Rutile Twins, Rhodonite, and Topaz. Also changed the Diamonds size based on comparisons in The Trial. All added artwork is from the wikia.
EDIT11: Added Pink Diamond. Artwork is from the wikia.
EDIT12: Added Rainbow Quartz 2.0, Sun Stone, White Diamond, and Obsidian(She a taaaaalllllll grrl).
Rainbow Quartz 2.0, Sun Stone, and Obsidian art is from the Steven Universe Wikia.
White Diamond art is from the Villians Wikia. ( villains.wikia.com/wiki/White_… )
EDIT13: Added: Pebbles, Earth Beetle, Larimar, Bluebird Azurite, Carnelian, Chert, Flint, Spinel, Jade, Teenage Connie, Teenage Steven, Nephrite, Bixbite, Yellow Jade Fusion, Big Pink Steven, Orange Spodumene, Steg Fusion, Snowflake Obsidian, Watermelon Tourmeline, Crazy Lace Agate Fusion, MegaPearl Fusion, Corrupted Jasper Fusion (normal and standing tall), Flourite (normal and standing tall),
Godzilla Steven, Ruby Fusion (New fusions disproved my previous theory that same gemtype fusions were just numerically scaled up)
All new art is from the Steven Universe Wikia.

Can u add flourite and topaz (fused) in your chart
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
From a previous comment:
"My policy so far has been to only do fusions that are made of different parts, since up until Topaz all single type fusions we've seen were just proportionally bigger times the number of gems involved. The Topaz fusion is the first Ive seen that deviates from that."
Ive been thinking about whether to keep that policy, but have been holding off on a decision until we can see more examples of "same type" fusions.
The reason is Topaz's ability to absorb other beings into her body. It suggests a malleability that could potentially account for her fusion not following the "proportionally bigger times the number of gems involved" precedent the Ruby Squad set. If a new Gem type we've not seen yet fuse and don't follow the "proportionally bigger times the number of gems involved" precedent it would mean the precedent is wrong and I may have to add the Ruby Squad Fusion as well. But if they do then that is unneeded redundancy and extra work.
If your asking to know were the fused Topaz would fall on this chart:
From a previous comment:
"The Topaz in my chart, is infact, based on comparisons to the singular Topaz Gems. I compared and observed many scenes through out every episode in which Topaz was featured specifically looking to compare both her fused and unfused states, and there is little to no height difference between the fused and unfused Topaz."
The Topaz fusion was about the same height as the unfused Topazes.
As for adding Fluorite, it is planned. I just haven't had the time, as I got a new job that is taking up more of my free time.

Alexandrite could just look at aquamarine and shatter her jeesus

I would like to point out that the diamonds are SUPER incorrect in this size comparison, if you check these two videos you can see why.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_3zuh…
www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQhWE2…
As you can see if you pay attention, when blue diamond has a close up to Stevens body, his body doesn't even fill her whole face.
In the other video you see that when Alexandrite is holding Steven and Greg, they are sitting on her shoulders and fill up her whole face sooo, the Diamonds should be at least the same size or BIGGER than Alexandrite.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The second video you linked has been copy right claimed, and I cannot view it.
If you are referring to the scene in "Fusion Cuisine" in which Steven and Greg are sitting on Alexandrite's shoulder, that scene was already used for comparisons for Alexandrite's current placement.
I always try to use every comparable occurrence from any episode I can just for the sake of consistency. Because when dealing with shapeshifters, frequency and consistency are going to be the best bet. Alexandrite's size has fluctuated as compared to Steven in nearly every instance we've seen her(which makes sense considering the implied instability of the fusion). There simply is not enough evidence to counter current placements of the Diamonds as compared to Alexandrite, and one or two outliers are not going to be enough.
Just to drive the point home:
Shapeshifter comparisons require frequency and consistency.
EDIT:
Also, a few examples of how shapeshifters can mess up comparisons:
Sardonyx's legs are much longer in proportion to her own torso, than Sugilite's legs/torso.
Blue Diamonds head is much more elongated than Alexandrite's.
Topaz's legs are significantly shorter in proportion to her own torso, than almost every other known gem.

I think how rainbow quartz should be taller than opal or same height for somereason
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Rainbow Quartz and Opal are fusions who's placement Im pretty confident in.
They both have comparisons that can be consistently tied back to a surprisingly large number of other characters. Thanks to the Temple Door and the Temple Warp Pad they can be compared almost directly, and even Rose can be compared despite never having been seen on screen with either Fusion. And through Rose comparisons of the fusions can more consistently be made to Greg, Garnet, and Steven as well.

Depends what you mean by "share".
I am aware of the kind of chicanery that can go on with things that are "shared" on tumblr, and how the person sharing can end up with more views/notes/ect than the original artist. If you are going to share it I would prefer not reposting the actual image, and a direct link back here so as to avoid that kind of thing.

I know she have not shows up yet but I think White Diamond would be the same size like Alexandrite.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Meh.
There may not be any evidence against it, but there equally isn't anything that would even remotely suggest it either.
If White was that much more of an imposing presence than the other Diamonds, I don't think her mural would have been the same size as the other Diamonds.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
All we need to do now is just wait at see White. I looking forward at see her.

I wonder if Sugilite could beat Malachite. She IS a strong fusion, after all.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I would wager no.
Sugilite has an advantage over Alexandrite, in that she is technically more stable.
Its not a healthy kind of stable but unlike Alexandrite, Sugilite won't be unfusing very easily.
That said I don't think Sugilite has anything that would be able to get around Malachite's mobility.
The only reason Alexandrite won is because she had Opal's ranged attack, and even that only worked because Malachite made the mistake of flying away from the water she was using to defend with. Sugilite's flail wouldn't be able to reach Malachite if she flew high enough, at which point Malachite could take the time required to fully control the ocean. At that point Sugilite pretty much wouldn't be able to do anything to stop her.

why aren't Carnelian, Skinny Jasper, Padparadscha Sapphire, Fluorite and the Ruby Squad Fusion on here?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
There isn't enough to compare Carnelian to for me place her.
The Carnelian we met appears to be the same body shape and size as Amethyst, which makes me wonder if she is also overcooked like Amethyst.
Which means I probably won't be including her unless we get to see other Carnelians, and 1) get more scenes to compare her in, and 2) confirm what a non-overcooked Carnelian looks like.
I think Skinny Jasper was also not enough to compare to.
IIRC, She was in just one scene and didn't have much else to compare her to.
(Also did the scene even show her full body? I seem to recall it was a close up that cut off at her lower body... Ill have to re-watch the episode..)
Padparadscha is presumed to be a type of sapphire. So technically she has already been placed.
Same for the Ruby Squad. They are all the same size, there is no need to be redundant.
As for Flourite... I just haven't gotten around to it because of other priorities.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I meant the Fusion of the 5 Rubies.
also, Carnelian is Slightly taller than Amethyst.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
My policy so far has been to only do fusions that are made of different parts, since up until Topaz all single type fusions we've seen were just proportionally bigger times the number of gems involved. The Topaz fusion is the first Ive seen that deviates from that. Im still thinking about the implications and whether I should change my policy. (my hope is to see Homeworld again and see another example of single type fusion)
"Carnelian is Slightly taller than Amethyst."
Im aware. Doesn't change that I need to confirm if she is overcooked, and what an non-overcooked Carnelian looks like first.
If Carnelians end up as being another type of Amethyst, then like Sapphire and Padparadscha, I won't be including her as Amethyst and the Amethyst guard are already there...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, of course.
Unofficial because they draw the characters as different sizes every time.

Why is malachite on there twice
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
it's her standing on her back legs.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sugilite should be taller than (or at least the same size as) Alexandrite. Sources: goo.gl/jaoeZY goo.gl/G3Dq2k
Also, the Topaz you have there is the size of the Topaz Fusion, not the singular topazes.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
I'm sure you haven't seen I Am My Mom yet, as in that episode Alexandrite is nearly twice as tall as Sugilite was in Cry for Help.
Source: imgur.com/a/sJTbJ
Note: Before you would mention how my edit is inaccurate, I made sure that the Stevens on the picture are the very same height.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you Rookyaoi, That image helps prove my point.
If you look back at Fusion Cuisine, Steven is quite clearly much larger compared to Alexandrite than he is in I Am My Mom.
It is those kinds of fluctuations, and the fact that they are shapeshifters, that make consistency and frequency more important.
Example of size difference in Fusion Cuisine: (from wikia)
vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/s…
He is almost the size of Alexandrite's entire face in that image, yet in I Am My Mom Steven could stand on her nose like it was a diving board.
This is why I never take a single outlier as impetus for a change.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
May I ask exactly how you estimate the height of a character when you need to add/edit one? Do you pick a scene where they are at their shortest, then one when they are the tallest and try to calculate an average?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I try to remember(or look on the wiki) which episodes the character in question is in, then check each scene in which Steven is also in the scene(as well as cross reference scenes in which other objects or characters of known consistent height(as compared to Steven) are in the scene(like the Temple Door when comparing Steven and Rose)).
I typically throw out scenes in which the perspective, distance to Steven/compared object/character, or camera position make it too unreliable to make an accurate comparison. (For example: I threw out the scene for Alexandrite in DaviDark's first image, because the the camera angle is too low to the ground and too far away, causing Alexandrite's height to be too sharply effected by the scenes perspective as compared to the Watermelon Steven in the scene)
I then determine which scenes are similar enough to be grouped together into the same "height range" and use the group with the most scenes.
I do not calculate averages. I simply take the most frequently consistent "height range" then eyeball that into the chart making sure the characters match up in the chart the same as the determined "height range".
Its not exact, but its not meant to be. The Show's crew doesn't use exact measurements, so I don't either.
I just make sure X is taller than Y, and get it as close to accurate as I can based on the above.
EDIT:
I should say, thats what I did when I was first making the chart.
Old scene's won't ever change. At this point all I need to do is compare new scenes to the determined "height range", which cuts out a lot of work. The only time I should need to re-do the full cross-reference work is if I feel I made a mistake somewhere.

1.
Both images fail to take into consideration the placement of Steven in relation to the fusion he is being compared to.
In the first image the Steven Melon is standing some unknown distance behind Alexandrite, while Steven is standing a seemingly closer but still unknown distance away in front of Sugilite. Where as in the second image, while Steven is standing directly next to Alexandrite, he is(similar to the other image) standing an unknown distance away from Sugilite.
I try to use comparisons of the subjects in which they are standing as close as possible to each other. Otherwise it would be impossible to account for the resulting perspective and distance.
2.
The Topaz in my chart, is infact, based on comparisons to the singular Topaz Gems. I compared and observed many scenes through out every episode in which Topaz was featured specifically looking to compare both her fused and unfused states, and there is little to no height difference between the fused and unfused Topaz.
3.
Even if you had presented an unquestionably definitive singular pic showing a height deviation from my chart, it takes more than one or two pieces of evidence for me to decide on a Gems position in the chart. Ive posted it here before and Ill do it again:
"The Gem's ability to shape shift makes consistency and frequency more important than a single outlier."

I wonder if by the end of the series all three diamonds will fuse into one "perfect" gem. I can imagine that and imagine who and why will kick her ass.

Wow, thanks for putting this together and updating it!! I have a question, though. What are your thoughts on the absolute heights of the characters? I've seen some people speculate, and on reddit someone said that Greg mentioned that Rose was 8 feet tall.
Going off of that and comparing heights on this website would put Jasper in the mid 8' range and Pearl at about 6'? Steven would be in the mid 4' range. At least, based on this image, Rose's height, and the use of the height comparison website. But what do you think? Any ideas?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't like to speculate exact measurements because even the SU Crew doesn't do that, and absolute heights are meaningless when dealing with shapeshifters.
Greg DID say Rose was 8 foot tall, but its just Greg saying she was. Its not like he took out measuring tape and checked. Still, Id say its good enough to take as true since its a cannon statement and literally the only blatant statement of height the show has made.
If you want to extrapolate the other Gem's heights as measurements based on Rose being 8 feet tall feel free, but personally I don't really see a point to it.
As shapeshifters they can be any height they want.
EDIT:
Oh, and that height comparison site may not be the best to use, since it is comparing proportional human silhouettes.
Many Gems, especially fusions, are not proportionally accurate. For example, Topaz's legs are proportionally shorter than the rest of her body, while Sardonyx's legs are proportionally longer than the rest of hers.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks for the reply with your thoughts about this!
I would agree, I guess it's really not set in stone because their bodies are mostly an illusion and their proportions aren't very accurate to anything irl (well, maybe with the exception of Connie and the other human characters).

This looks about right I think. It's when I get to Sugilite, Malachite and Alexandrite do I start to wonder. And also I just realized that they're all "-ites". Huh.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wonder in what way? Too short? Too Tall?
There has been some questions about Sugilite in the past, but Im pretty confident about their placement.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I feel like Alexandrite was closer to Sugilite's height from what i remember of Fusion Cuisine. But then i remember when Alexandrite grabbed Aquamarine's UFO, then i start to wonder again.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Most of my comparisons start against Steven, and I always try to use every comparable occurrence from ANY episode I can just for the sake of consistency. Because when dealing with shapeshifters, frequency and consistency are going to be the best bet.
Where I have them now is consistent with all instances in which Steven was close enough to compare to. In Alexandrite's case I also had Greg to compare against. Remember Greg, a full grown adult, was riding on Alexandrite's shoulder and didn't even reach her forehead.
In the future, we may see episodes that show Alexandrite and Malachite to be a bit shorter, but for now its fine. The SU Crew doesn't use exact measurements either(makes sense with shapeshifters). So while I try to get as close as possible, when it isn't possible I tend to stick to who is taller/shorter and leave out the exact-itudes.

One comment chain down:
"Ill add Fluorite eventually. She has the same problem I had with Malachite, but to a larger extent. I need to find out how tall she is on her "hind" legs, and how tall she is down on all six, then edit two separate images since the existing Wiki artwork won't work with either. And I can't just rely on those scenes when she gets her face right up to Steven, because her body is not uniformly proportioned. Which is going to make comparisons super difficult."
Not forgotten.

"I don't add Gems or make changes until the content demanding those additions or changes is part of an officially aired episode(I don't count the App because not everyone has the opportunity to watch it on the App). Promo's can be misleading, and I do not want to be party to spoilers."

Sorry I hadn't seen that reply when I posted the comment. The episode should air later today and I fully suspect we should get a lot more comparisons, though personally I feel we've gotten enough shots of them to this point to suggest they are indeed much bigger than shown here, either way there should be plenty more comparison shots later this afternoon.
