Now in thinking mode - ok, I know you didn't think I did any.
Well its wet, the allotment is too puddled and so I will just have to model.

I think the diorama may take this shape, some selective compression, so the trebuchet is really not far enough away - artistic licence maybe?

Isn't artistic license how most of us build models anyway?

Do you mean Keep?
But maybe he is inside the Castle?

Thanks Chris.
It had been my original intention to put two Trebuchets on the second board, but it looked too crowded.
I went with the Zvesda one and added some figures round and about to complete the scene.
I think there may be more figures to go on as and when.

The first two photos show the second board and the last two the complete scene, so far.

Great Stuff Zak.
You certainly portray history in scale so well.

I hope my next is always better
