Yes, he actually is in the same scale.

But I am not finish yet with the scene. The handle at the back is still just a
placeholder, and you also don't see the small crane for loading yet. I however
added already the ammunition box.

This is a One-and-a-Half Roman Talent ballista. A Roman talent equaled to 50 kg.

The largest ballistas ever built (by Archimedes) were able to fire 3 talent
ammunition.
