Does anyone know of good makers/sellers for sci-fi tank and APC turrets in 15mm? Mainly I'm looking to put them on 1/72 modern vehicles to make science fiction ones. Does anyone else have experience doing this sort of thing, with any pictures of results? Thanks. |

Javelin has some on shapeways: link Old Crow sells some too IIRC. |

And Brigade too sells them seperately (I think!) Email them and ask them John T |

Brigade and Old Crow most definitely. You'll need to use wayback to see pictures of the old crow range, and you'll likely need to wait a bit longer for the product, but he's legit and a nice guy. Brigade are great folks too mind you, and their range is lovely. On mobile, otherwise would link for you. |

Old Crow Wayback: link Brigade Models (I don't see any separate turrets, so you'll probably have to contact them): link |

Old Crow & Brigade models will happily sell you separate turrets i have bought more than enough in the past from both of them, GZG, CMG and Combat Wombat will also sell them to you if you ask them first before placing your order, if the company cast there own items they don't usually mind selling individual parts to you. My most recent turret swap can be found here. TMP link |

Also CMG has it's mech shop and there are some interesting conversion bits in there. |

I think you can ask QRF to do a separate order of turrets (I need to order a few T70 turrets from them…) |

Khurasan has a couple. But they do not sell you any individual or separate items from their product range, the previous companies that have been mentioned are more flexible as they mold and cast their own products. |

RAFM Miniatures makes a couple in their 15mm sci fi line: link

Rebel Minis have few separate turrets. |

Combat Wombat has always been amenable to bits sales, in my experience. |
gregmita2 | 04 Sep 2014 4:31 p.m. PST |
Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I'll look into some of these manufacturers. |

Combat Wombat also makes some superb turned brass or aluminum gun barrels in different sizes, making conversions and upgrading a real pleasure. CW also makes several static ground mount gun turrets, which IMHO is a two- fer for kitbashing projects, as the turret can be used for turning a container or such into an AFV, while the ground mount structure can serve as the passenger compartment on a kitbashed APC or C-cubed vehicle, etc. Leland R.
