Hi,
Decided to have a break from painitng, and didnt want to lose a whole day working on the French walled town today (thats going to be Thursday/ Friday with any luck :D ) so I decided to try my hand at making a covered wagon battering ram to represent my Engineer units in my Hundred Years War English Army.

Looks much better in the flesh....looks a bit dumpy here!
Anyway, more details of what, why and how are on my blog, http://wargames.blog.co.uk/2013/05/27/project-10mm-hundred-years-war-french-english-armies-part-16061497/ (http://wargames.blog.co.uk/2013/05/27/project-10mm-hundred-years-war-french-english-armies-part-16061497/)

Nice!
Why can I hear the words 'Grond! Grond!' in the background?
Thought Grond was more of a Petard.
Building Siege gear is fun...

Cheers - Phil.
looks really good 8) maybe 4 wheels on each side would look more balanced?

Grond was the battering ram used by the orcs to break the main gate of Minas Tirith.
I KNOW THAT, but it seems to go BANG !!! in the books.

Now finished with a few extra wet hides made from greenstuff, and a suitable paintjob:

No, the explosive device in the storm culvert was what the orcs used to bring down the wall at Helms Deep.
In the film, Grond had a ridiculous fire-basket at its nose, which would have crumpled like tissue paper at first impact.
The finished article looks the business, Craig. Nice one! 8)
I'll second that ! :-bd
Great job Craig.
Cheers - Phil.
Nicely done Craig 8).

Awesome work! I´ll made one on my own ^^
That looks really good. Must put that in line with my projected Leornado tank for my phantasy (sic) DBA later condottieri.
