Warhammer Handgunners

"Rank on rank they stood, presenting to the enemy the arms of Nuln and the roaring cry of the gun-lines."

This model is intended for use in warhammer maps, but I imagine given the flexability of a handgunner, it can find a place in almost any medieval-renaissance or warcraft themed map.

Uses in-game textures.

Great model - Nice use of textures and great edited animations. Good job.
That is news to me, I was under the impression that while the rest of the Empire had access to basic firearms, Nuln produced the highest quality ones due to their association with dwarves.

I suppose the only excuse for the lack of repeater handguns is the sort of lame "Well everyone can use it now" thing - BUT - I also intend to make either pistolier cavalry or repeater cavalry to finish off the Reikland model set.

Ideally I'd like to make some night goblins and chaos, but I'll need a good selection of 3 units before I go ahead on those projects.

*Edit
I think I might remove the fin on his helmet, while it is warcrafty, it doesn't match with the bascinet of the models I was using for reference much. (Though, they were wearing barbute helmets)

I used a quote and the pants from the Total Warhammer game, the rest has been inspiration from the miniatures - I find those to be significantly more creative and charming.
