Great stuff!
Definitely something that could grace the pages of the Burleigh & Stronginthearm catalogue

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Unfortunately the wood is too frail (the metal bows would probably work but i couldnt get them drilled i broke 5 carbide drills to get 3 holes drilled
Re: 1/17 Lo Scorpione
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.

Re: 1/17 Lo Scorpione
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.
