Compact cluster of dock workers (longshoremen) in HO (1:87) scale — ideal for waterfront dioramas and model railroad layouts. The group shows adult figures in rounded flat caps, simple work jackets, straight trousers and practical shoes. Poses include a conversational pair, an upright watcher and leaning stances that read well on quays and wharves. The sculpt focuses on silhouette clarity and print reliability at HO scale rather than fine facial detail.
What you get: One 1:87 (HO) master STL. The file may be a single connected scenic base or a grouped mesh; separate figures in a mesh editor if you prefer individual parts for pinning and support optimization.
Printing tips: Resin printing at 0.05–0.10 mm layer heights preserves hats and clothing forms; orient the cluster to limit supports on faces. If printing on an FDM machine, separate figures and use pins for secure attachment to scenic bases. Finishing: primer, wash and drybrush for convincing grime and cloth highlights.
This set suits HO model railroaders populating waterfronts, diorama builders creating busy quay scenes, and painters practicing speed techniques. Note: legacy MeshRef source; manual review recommended.
Available railroad scales: Z (1:220), N (1:160), HO (1:87.1), S (1:64), O (1:48)
