[MOC] Burning at the stake, Jeanne d'Arc

Hello Eurobrickers

Well I'm back into the Castle theme again, thanks to new Brickwarriors products. So after making some custom minifigs, then building some Medieval hoses and after a brief trip through France including a visit to Rouen, I got some inspiration for this scene. 

On 30 May 1431, a young 19 year old girl, who had inspired the French in a renewed fight against the English during the Hundred Years War, was captured by the Burgundians and handed over to the English. They promptly had her tried and burned at the stake in Rouen.

Love the architecture. And great details in the scene - the bundles of wood are a nice and realistic touch. I really must visit Rouen!
