CCCXIV Bull's Attack

Post by Purple Wolf »

My entry for the "Siege Warfare' category.

(this is more or less based on the "Bull's Attack" set from 2000)The Bull Knights ready their siege tower and ballista as they head to battle. Also ever wonder how those big towers move? Easy cow power!

Very fitting siege weapon for the Bull Knights! I like your use of the dark bley flags all over, and the palm tree trunks used for the ballista are quite clever as well.
And of course they needed some cow power :lol:

Though the siege engines look reaaally powerfull, I'd suggest adding some details to the green baseplates, so the high quality of the tower is not dimished by the presentation

Thanks! However the unfortunet truth of the matter is when I got to this entry my supply of landscaping parts had kinda run out. I was thinking of not having a base at all however I feel I needed it to show that it fit in the size restriction.
