Looks small.
It looks small but it is not. I found a photo montage with Saturn V. The size should be approximately correct from what I can tell.

This is from a live feed just after the stacking point. Humans in monsterously tall cherry picker for scale:

Gigantic!
It looks like one side of the Starship is coated in some black material.
Is it some form of thermal plating or just kind of "no-scratch" thing just for stacking?
Thermal tiles, they’re waiting for the rest to arrive
I think this one represents the scale the best.
Someone on reddit photoshopped both StarShip and Saturn V on their respective launchpads next to each other.

You could link to the post itself so the author gets credit
Yes, its so hard to get a sense of scale, our brains just don't have a reference
To note, there is a human standing in every picture except for one as far as I could see. While it isn't too good of a reference since the size difference is so big, it's at least something.
I found a human in every picture.
The last one was hardest, but in the white cherry picker in the air, and beside the orange cherry picker on the ground.
