Yep i need to work on the colours overall in my renders - will try to rework
JPS - In my defence – in a pseudo medieval world of RPG’s a siege weapon would have to be new at some point 
All valid comments - taken on board

Nice work AE and you didn't share with me this model? You might want to add a bit of bump to it but set it at .2 to .5 Nice job......

Very nice AE, but that's a catapult, not a trebuchet. A trebuchet is the whip siege weapon that pulls its arsenal through itself. I saw a documentary on trebuchets on Discovery once, and they launched a small car one half mile downrange with the thing. Heh.
Here's a trebuchet:

Fair cop.... I just used the name from the model i purchased, although the mechanism to swing the arm is a "drop bucket" affair so i don't know as to which group it belongs as a catapults don't seem to work that way. I don't want to get into an argument as to be honest i know nothing about seige weapons

Ok this is a re-rendered version. I just hope JPS is happier with it . Still new I suppose but a tad more worn / out in the elements. There is a couple of little things I need to re-render again - but I will just repost to this post (not gonna re-render this time of night  )
Anyway here it is (p.s. thanks Blu for the tip)
edit - slight rework on rope and rust - Ae

I was happy with the first one
but that don't mean I don't wanna see more Variety.
I am sure others would too
