Tinkering around the other night trying to recreate the compound bow... whipped up a heavy crossbow instead.

How it's built:

I'd have to say that that looks pretty sweet!

Agreed, I think the angles in the arms make it look sort of Dark Elven. This is a good bit of weapon experimenting.

I think you're on to something there Warhead. Dark elf weaponry!

Hey thanks guys!

The bits are really easy to come by as well. Only thing that's non-Lego is the monopod on the front but that's optional really.

I suppose you could use the same part he's holding the crossbow with.

or make some other attachment using a stud with a clip. This looks like it has a bunch of different uses, well done!

Nice crossbow! I like the sword as well. Where did you get that?

Came in the new Brickarms chrome blade pack.

Totally worth the price!

That's pretty sleek, I'm on my way to make on for my rangers right now!

The underside of the droid body has a peg which means the heavy cross bow can be mounted on athe turret for a light ballista effect.
