I spent the model day making the Zvesda Trebuchet, lots of sanding to get the joints flush.
I will post some pictures later.

They are great - just let me attack Sir Neil, and my day will be complete
I thought that you were already doing that.
He is only following orders you know! Whose orders though?

Sir Martin is preparing his siege engines, he just needs a castle to assault (or maybe insult!).
Siege tower.
Ballista
Arkbalista
Battering ram

Started this yesterday, but was so enjoying the build that I forgot to take any pictures.
Here it is undercoated.
Made from card. string and strip wood, a sort of mangonel /ballista /trebuchet.
No plans, out of my head ( enough left to build a sideboard as my grandma used to say!).

GREAT work - for the siege, how about Avaricum or going back even further how about Rhodes in 304BC (will not make any jokes about you seeing both of these in person - hohohhoho )
I have a trebuchet to build - maybe on Sunday and some other siege engines to scratch build, before the sidetracking gene takes over again.
Maybe I should change the heading?

Just remember, you are older than me, so you would definitely have been present at all these ancient events.

Undercoated, ladders added, paining soon, mainly dry brushing.
Martin the Mean just needs somewhere to attack now.

A labour of love. Lots of fettling going on.

I forgot to say, this is scratch built from card and bits of strip wood.
Progress so far.

No the armour was a special one off!
But my spelling may be better than yours.!

Martin the Mean prepares for his next siege, something harder.
The Ballista Boys have been constructing a siege tower for his next adventure.

When Martin the Mean is having trouble with a siege he calls in the "Ballista Boys" (well actually it is an Arkbalista, but it didn't alliterate as well as this!
These are from MARS FIGURES. they are fairly basic and quite ugly and badly formed!!
I think I may stop there.

There were 4 in the pack, I have a spare so will bring it on Sunday for you Martin.
