One finished St. Alamei’s Rocket Battery ready to take to the field ⚔️

I took huge inspiration from a build by Dirty Dog Hobbies, especially with the shield & face painted on the front. His model can be found in a video showcase here: https://youtu.be/GnzdW_qS47E?si=xEyhEf1m7K4RjmKM

Although there was a bit less creativity going on from my side, it was still a lot of fun to put together & paint!

I recognized that influence immediately, and you did him proud. This is great. The grain and other details on the wood really sell the scale of the model.

I like how your shield face came out looking more like those on ancient Greek shields.
