Dan, they would be about 3/4 of the size of the 1/18 stuff.

is it off enough to look bad in a shot, or can they pass, Craig?

I suppose you could put them in the background and use forced perspective to make them look the same size.

The Countach and the Reventon are about the same size in real life. The Countach is 1/24, the Reventon is 1/18
Hope this helps. Maybe throw some forced perspective on the picture.
