1/722 - The animal of death

Les premiers pas sur mon nouveau dioramas consacré une nouvelle fois au Moyen Age.
Le bélier est un engin de siège dont l’origine remonte à l’Antiquité et qui était utilisé pour enfoncer les murs des fortifications ou les portes.
C'est une arme classique du Moyen Âge. Grâce au bélier, les lourdes portes des forteresses assiégées sont défoncées. Il sert également à ébranler des murs d'enceinte, soit peu épais, soit mal entretenus, et à y provoquer des brèches plus rapidement que par la sape.
Historiquement le bélier a été utilisé dans les circonstances suivantes:
- La destruction de Jérusalem
- Les Croisades
- La chute de Rome
L’utilisation des béliers a eu un effet important sur l'évolution de la conception des murailles et des fortifications.

Le matériel provient de la gamme Green-Line de chez Fredericus-Rex et les murailles sont simplement composées de plaques de papier plume trouvé sur le marché.
Les figurines seront de ValdemarMiniatures. Mais avant, montage du décors de base avant peinture.

Translation with google ***
The first steps on my new dioramas devoted again to the Middle Ages.
The ram is a siege engine that dates back to antiquity and was used to knock down the walls of fortifications or doors.
This is a classic weapon of the Middle Ages. With the ram, the heavy gates of besieged fortresses are potholed. It also serves to undermine the walls, either thin or poorly maintained, and will lead to break more quickly than in the sap.
Historically the ram was used in the following circumstances:
- Destruction of Jerusalem
- The Crusades
- The fall of Rome
The use of rams had a major effect on the evolution of the design of walls and fortifications.
The material comes from the Green-Line range of home Fredericus-Rex and the walls are simply made ​​of paper plates pen found on the market.
The figurines will ValdemarMiniatures. But first, the mounting base before painting scenery.




Il reste beaucoup de travail... La suite, prochainement.

There is much work ... Next to come.

Looks awsome! The only thing is the position of the ladder. I think it would be nearly impossiple for a knight in full armour to get from the ladder on the walls

@Ben90,
Where do you see the full armor ?
No they are not in full armor !
They have only the coast of stitches !

Shield, weapon and chainmail. The distance between the gap of the pinnacles and the end of the ladder seems a bit too far to me, but that´s just my opinion.

@Ben90,
Les soldats ne pouvaient se battre tout nu !
Ils devaient avoir un minimum de protections...
Comme tu peux le voir, le set est complet avec les protections et armes nécessaires pour l'assaut...

@ Ben90,
The soldiers could not fight all naked !
They must have a minimum of protection ...
As you can see, the set is complete with guards and weapons to the assault ...

I haven´t said that they should fight naked! The only problem is the gap in the red circle (look at the image). I think there´s no way to get on the top of the walls for the attackers. The ladder must only be attached a bit more to the left.

Hi freinds,

Well I do think that it is correct that the ladder should be a little more to the left in order to give the knight some better access to the wall. That said then I would like to say that Mich ones again have done what will be a fantastic diorama, I do not know how you just keep coming up with diorama after diorama and all are so individual?

Superb work my friend!


Best regards
