Evolution of a Trebuchet - Part 4 (Redux)

Post by kelderic »

First attempt at this ended up being an 8x8 vignette because of lack of of pieces. However, I wasn't satisfied, and I finally got a couple bricklink orders in yesterday. So, here is the re-done part 4. :)

Nice mountain, very nice and convincing foliage. I don't yet see a Trebuchet though.....

Speaking of the Trebuchet, Gunny (Lee Ermey) did an excellent TV episode on them within the last few years on the History channel (Mail Call) which we most enjoyed. You can watch it here on Hulu, great stuff for Castle fans:

Or there are these fellows who are very serious about throwing things with LEGO:

Enjoy the movies, -Ben

Soon soon ... you have to have iron ore to make the metal fastenings. :) And Mail Call is a great show. Medieval tech for the win.

On a different note, part 5 is going to be a long time coming, because I'm now back at school, and I have no LEGOs here. Will be getting some in the next few weeks, though.
