Here is a battering ram from MiniArt. All ready to demolish the castle gates - what castle?
The figures were poor to say the least, lots of flash, hard to remove on soft polythene figures.

I didn't know you knew any Klingon phrases! Anyway re the mould lines on soft plastic I read that you can use Tamiya Extra Thin brushed on to remove them.

More of the awful figures, again poor detail and lots of mis moulding.
Medieval pike man, again they came with the MiniArt Castle.

Here is the castle from the "Assault of Medieval Fortress" set.
Extra work has been done and I am still waiting for the moat to dry completely before I add another layer or two.

This was not a particularly great kit, but maybe I was having an off day.
The kit contains knights, soldiers, and so on. I am not sure of their make but they are really poor mouldings!

Very nice Zak.
I always like your attention to detail and getting the correct figures, equipment, setting right.
Another modelling incursion into another interesting historical period.
Another one to look forward at a future meeting.
