    Your best point of reference is, without being facetious, the movie A Bug’s Life.

    You probably could with small enough woody materials, but at that size they’ll incinerate pretty quickly unless the density of the woody material in your campfire was equivalent to that of real life to support similar fire behaviour.

    Density generally doesn’t scale with reduction in size, so what would usually be a solid tree log that burns slowly at 1:1 scale, would probably be equivalent to dry straw or grass blades at 1:200 scale.

    (scale numbers spit-balled: no science behind them)
