1/10 Scale Ballista!

Here's the only piece of 3d art i made this semester.
We were covering medieval and roman culture in humanities class and were required to do creative projects, and what you are seeing is the project I chose to take on.

Made of poplar and measuring 20x20x10in, this is a fully functional ballista siege engine. It fires a 5.5x.5in bolt about 40 feet. It's historically accurate in construction, featuring a real skein torsion rig and winch.

because of its small scale I've decided to name it The Hobbit. Enjoy!
