				<title>Third party bits manufacturers size reference pictures: here's some Old Crow</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ OK, I put in an order with Old Crow models recently, and it arrived. It was a little slow, but they have a disclaimer on the main page indicating they are backed up, so fair enough - no harm, no foul. <br /> <br /> Here's a terminator with one of their assault cannons:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/186132-Old%20Crow%20AC%20with%20Terminator.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/2/16/186132-Old%20Crow%20AC%20with%20Terminator.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> Please note this terminator was one of the first models I did and the paint job is pretty poor. The <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(5);'>AC</span> is a good match as far as caliber goes for infantry, but will look too small on vehicles, I think. Maybe OK on a land speeder. Good base for a scratchbuilt terminator <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(5);'>AC</span>.<br /> <br /> Here is Sgt. Telion with some Old Crow gunbarrels:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/186133-Telion%20with%20Old%20Crow%20barrels.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/2/16/186133-Telion%20with%20Old%20Crow%20barrels.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> I never understood why the Space Marine's premier sniper is holding a standard boltgun, so I wound up adding a barrel extension out of brass rod with a suppressor out of a coffee stirrer. The scope is from a devastator lascannon. I'm kind of digressing here; point is, if you wanted to mod your own Telion, some of these bases would make a good barrel extension, <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(72);'>imo</span>.<br /> <br /> As so:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/186134-Telion%20with%20Old%20Crow%20barrel.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/2/16/186134-Telion%20with%20Old%20Crow%20barrel.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> Here's an Old Crow Splinter with a landspeeder:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/186135-Old%20Crow%20Splinter%20with%20Landspeeder.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/2/16/186135-Old%20Crow%20Splinter%20with%20Landspeeder.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> Good matchup on size. Scalewise I think it's maybe too small for marines, but I plan on using as a terrain piece\objective anyway. If you're doing a homebrew army that's counts-as space marines, it's nearly an exact size match, and at 9 bucks pretty cheap.<br /> <br /> And, the one I cared the most about: the multi-missile turret for making a cheap Whirlwind. Here it is on a <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(148);'>WIP</span> Rhino:<br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/186136-Old%20Crow%20Multi%20Missile%20Turret.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/2/16/186136-Old%20Crow%20Multi%20Missile%20Turret.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.dakkadakka.com/gallery/186137-Old%20Crow%20Multi%20Missile%20Turret.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/2/16/186137-Old%20Crow%20Multi%20Missile%20Turret.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /> <br /> The collet, as you can see, is too big to fit in the turret ring for a oem whirlwind\predator. The scale is a very good match, but I think the actual missiles look maybe a little too small for <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(3);'>40k</span>. Of course, in the real world, they're about right, but of course in the grimdark world of <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(3);'>40k</span>, the smallest caliber is "canned ham" - kinda screws up otherwise good matches. I'm going to go with them as is. <br /> <br /> They also <a href="http://www.oldcrowmodels.co.uk/25turrets.htm" target="_new" rel="nofollow">make, among their many turrets, one with larger missiles</a> which would probably make a better Whirlwind match. <br /> <br /> Overall, the quality is quite nice with Old Crow: the resin is very smooth, no air bubbles, minimal flash, and well packed. I'd give them the thumbs up on both price and quality. <br /> <br /> I've also got an order in with Bitspudlo, and hope to update this thread soon with some of their stuff. ]]></description>
