The lion's head is interesting. It does indeed look like it could be modeled
as a heightfield (no undercuts--kind of like a vacu-formed shell.) I seem to
remember coming across an interactive heightfield modeler app somewhere on
the 'net, but can't remember where. Allowing one to paint an image and to
see the resulting HF in real-time.

Nice work on the catapult so far. (Was this a real weapon?)
