Very cool. Is that the TGM scorpion?

Is there a thread on how you made the fort?

Yes, it is TGM. I'll have to look a little bit.

Thanks

pretty awesome Steve...
that probably cost you around $100 or so to make...
and you probably had a lot of fun creating it...
where you could of spent 5-10 times that much to buy one...
yours looks fantastic...
both inside and out!

Thank you, Mike. Yes, like you and others, I like to build and my money can't go towards both buildings, terrain etc. and figures. Two updated pictures.

Wow! That’s seriously cool. What inspired you? Did you use a blueprint or guide of some kind?

Well first of all, I love forts. I was reading when the Romans stopped from their days march, they would build a earthen rampart and add their carry-along stakes. if they continued to stay they would just keep reinforcing it. I've seen pictures of towers and palisades, so I just went from there. I did draw up a design to figure out sizing. Just a note; Romans liked building ditches at a 30 degree angle.

Love your fort Steve. Must be really satisfying to having built that and as Michael said at a fraction of the cost of a bought one. Like the mix of your barbarians and outside landscaping as well. Regards Greg.

Yep a great one off piece Steve that I think would sit nicely in any Museum ! :salute::

The alternative to building is owning one or part of these. Not as rewarding but very happy to have such a great piece. Greg.
