Nice pieces!

That blue orc/hobgoblin/whatever... where's that mini from? I sold one recently, just curious who made it. =)

Hei phreedh,

the base of the fig you sold names Grenadier as manufactorer

Looks cool to me.

Great stuff - they look lovely!

As for price I'll have a go as everyone else seems reticent - I warn you though - I'm no expert!

Try having a look around for similar stuff being sold by other companies - had a quick trawl round and found an onager going for £18 at warlord games, although that does seem a bit pricey for my moth-eaten wallet!

Somewhere around £10 sounds good to me

but I don't know much about the costs involved in sculpting and casting and how much you'd need to make the whole exercise economic!

Hope that's not undervaluing your lovely work too much!

The Grendel/Scotia Trebuchet cost 15,00 Pounds.

ok i was thinking about 8£ for the unassembled and without the copper parts... in the package i can add some copper wire and rope, but nothing of manual by me...

if you want the trebuchet already assembled, it should be around 15, cause is a very long work to assemble everything!

you think is accetable?

Thantsants · « **Reply #20 on:** June 13, 2010, 06:04:31 PM »

Is that 8 euros or 8 pounds for the unassembled?

Either way its a very reasonable price!

Good idea to charge a premium for the assembled piece!

Sangennaru · « **Reply #21 on:** June 13, 2010, 06:07:24 PM »

pounds, 10 euros should be honest!

the main problem for the assembled one is the shipping: it is pretty much expensive... :-\
BTW if someone is interested I could also think about painting it!!!

I'm asking to you all, just because this isn't a selling forum, and i trust you! tell me what you think!
I need to have an idea!

Ok then I'll start the ball rolling with this idea:

http://www.manticgames.com/Shop-Home/Undead/War-Machines/Product/Undead-Balefire-Catapult.html

Plastic, with crew and optional bits and pieces £8 you can buy a pair for £12.50.

Yours: resin with no crew or optional bits I would suggest the same pricing recognising size etc....

Just a suggestion.

Doesn't seem so.
But it's bigger than yours.

And it's not structured all around

actually, mine is 3 times bigger than this, and i can't compete with those companies, of course. But it is a good suggestion, even if I can't afford to ask too few! i'm not planning to cast many catapults, it is just for fun!

Can you send me a PM or post on here how much you want for 2 of them plus postage to Australia. These look too nice to pass up on.... (providing the price is right)

rabbits, if you are still interested, i've prepared 2 trebuchet in plastic bags, plus addons, like copper, rope and a few resin crates... waiting for your pm!

Sorry didn't look at your original pricing, but at least my idea was around what you were thinking.

I'll take 2 or 3 off you definately.

And if you really want to be busy I can post it on the LoTR Last Alliance and The one Ring sites for you if you like?
