Who ever said its all painting Pt. 2


So we have a how its going to be carryed but do we know the what? well the only way to find out is to build it and pray to god it works.



So we have the main body


This is the front which looks like a wooden verson of the Red barrons plan from ww1 but its not and maybe some of you may have figured it out or just scolled down and looked.


The two added together. 


Ok this part needs some explaining as you can see on this there is a little bit of dowl with string around it now this was rather intersting to do because I had to set it up so that I was able to make the bow tight and still had movement in it so hard to do!


You are able to see more here.


With the bottom done as well.





The back mechanism as well as the strings on the bows.

So you all by know must have figured out it is a balista!

And here it is Finished and together. 





The best part is it works and fires as well! So much fun to build and I would highly sergest it to anyone.

  2. Nice build! Isn't a mobile Ballista a Scorpion though? My history isn't what it once was, haven't played Rome Total War in years :)
