New Trebuchet
« on: 01 February 2013, 09:01:48 PM »
Hi everyone!
Probably for some of you this is not a great new, since i actually finished sculpting it since quite a long time, and i've been selling it on Roundtable of Bretonnia since a couple of months, but... here's the new trebuchet!



More infos are on the related article on my website, but basically it is available for purchase! :)

How much is it and how do I go about ordering one? ???

Nicely sculpted, but I can't shake off the impression that the 'rack' holding the working parts is too low for the contraption to work (if it was a real trebuchet)? Wouldn't the counter-weight hit the ground before the arm (and payload) reaches the top point?

I'm no expert on medieval machines of war, and there might be something I'm missing?
