1/700 harbor / dock accessories set

Post by Hen »

Hello!
I have finished my first own set of harbor/dockyard accessories in 1/700 scale (probably also works for other scales):

Do you think there is a market for this? What would be a realistic price for this 48 pcs. set?

Hey there - Definitely a market. Black Dog has some dock accessories, at about 12.00 EUR that seem to sell pretty well from what I can tell from ebay listings and seeing them on several dioramas. https://blackdog-model.com/kategorie/1-700-ships/

Yours has a better selection of different types of cargo, so better than mixing a bunch of other sets. I've seen come Black Dog knock-offs from China on ebay, so I'd ignore their prices.

Are you casting these yourself? Pretty neat, if so!

Thank you for your feedback! I know the Black Dog accessories and have bought all of them. But since their parts are rather large (e.g. big stacks of stuff), I wanted to create smaller bits and pieces for my dioramas. I don't have a vacuum box so I get the stuff casted by professionals :cool_2:

I have also seen the Black Dog knock-offs from "Snake" on ebay (~15 USD) - let's see if they also copy mine once it's on sale :big_grin:
