Definitely something that could grace the pages of the Burleigh & Stronginthearm catalogue :-D
Best wishes

A very well modelled piece and an interesting subject.
What would this have fired? A giant arrow or a big rock? Possibly molten oils?
It's a really nice model in any event.

Great work, KP that has turned out very nicely indeed. Indeed what did it fire I wonder? Those look like giant crossbow bolts in the rack at the side but I wouldn't be surprised it could fire other munitions as well.
Doing - Tamiya 1/35th Universal Carrier.

Work is the curse of the modelling classes!
