Those cannons called Lombarda as far as i remember from my history book and were huge indeed. I will try to find some links
I found a nice pic for you guys
Fall of Constantinople-1453
Ok some things about those cannons they could throw 650pound round stone balls. Yoy can imagine the damage they could do. Their range was aboyt 1km but they couldnt target very easy, So in most cases those cannons were not good for siege.

The Rage of Gods will soon appear again on this earth and Twillight Knights will walk again the Grounds of Durandar
That's really really really and really nice 
. And it's great to see another Constantinople MOC. Those walls are really nice and the tower tops are just like the real ones. Also as I mentioned before the Janissaries are executed in an innovative way.
That cannon is huge and looks like the real thing, but my only gripe about it is that it's too close. However since there are limitations, the reason in doing that is understandable.
Also, I wish the ground had more greens. All that gray looks a bit odd. And more uniform Janissary might have looked better.
It's much much better than my try a couple of years ago. Here
Really nice. If you can state the brick height of the walls, I might come up with something that compliments it. Keep up the great work my brother.

thank you snicker too, as soon as i am free i'll look for the brick scale.
the reason i put that cannon that close is obviously the contest limitation.
@asterios; and i wish i had your great siege tower and all those troops now that would be near perfect
making those janissaries is not a hard thing, i already uploaded close up shots so you can see how they are done.
