Gunnery School of Nuln (Update: Pistolier painted)

Here are the first assembled Minis of my Nuln Warband.They were made out of the new Hunter sprue and parts of the Outrider Minis.
Two Pistoliers to the left, Senior Gunnery Officer in the mid and two Underclassmen to the right:

The Spear arms of the Underclassguys are from the Warlord Games Pike&Shotte ECW Sprue and fit quite nicely

Next are a Senior Student with a brace of pistols, an Instructor with Rerpeater Handgun and a Marksman with Pigeonbombs...

Stay tuned...

Very nice. I'm really looking forward to the Pigeonbombs

These new kits seem all so useful, I think I will have to get them

wow!! cool !

Where you get those uber long pisols from?!

I've seen Eliazar use them, are they new?

The pistols are from the outriders/pistoleers boxed set from WHFB Empire

Thanks Guys!

Paluke, the pistols come from the Imperial Pistoliers/Outrider box! Indeed, they are überlong, they could pass as Handguns or even smallish muskets!

Eliazar, you really should get these boxes, they are awesome! GW has really improved since I bought my last Minis from them 10+ years ago

Edit: Not fast enough

Yeah, I was just a little afraid at getting the new boxes at first because I loathe the new state troops, their bodies suck so much and the quality of the casts was not that convincing, either (I am still looking for a box of the old one ). But as I need some models for my new warband anyway, I can just order a couple of other miniatures alongside

VERY NICE START! I haven't a clue what's involved with the Nuln, but the minis ARE cool & give the impression of a War Band with TREMENDOUS modeling/painting potential. Keep up the GOOD WORK!

Nice! Very cool!

Like how the look is going. I dig your pistoliers very much.

Painted my first Gunman, hope you like:



Somehow my new Vallejo Model Color Matt Varnish isn't as matt as my Games Color one

Nice but what's with the bottles?

VERY NICE! The mini looks GREAT & I LOVE the way the base turned out. VERY WELL DONE!

They recieved a layer of gloss varnish, they're glass after all!

Or are you wondering why someone would take two bottles of whatever to a streetfight? Don't know

Hell yeah! Love it! The face looks particularly great! Very nice!

Can't wait to see the rest of them!

Alright!

Nice start man. I was never too sure about the length of pistoleer pistols when using them, but your guy pulls it off nicely! The black Nuln uniforms are always so slick and your take on the classic is no exception. The bottles are a great detail piece and I understand the use of the gloss. I'm quite hesitant to ever use the stuff myself.

Looking forward to the rest, spearmen especially!

Wow, nice models man, strange thing is, those are the colors i was thinking of for when i make my gunnery school, but i guess there isn't really much variation you can use with nuln. Nicely painted.

wow! awesome! love the bottles! you did a great job on them

wonderful rich brown on the surcoat, and the bottles are a great touch!

Nice work, the bottles look a lot like real glass.

Well thank you my friend! I think I am going just might make some Nulners my self!
Oh and are you going too play with thes guys? If so what rules are you useing?

Well, thanks a lot guys!
I'm sorry, I haven't posted in a while, but I didn't do any painting or modelling for the last two weeks! I'm just don't feel like it....must be the sun or my job atm!

dwi, I do intend to play these guys using some rules I found on the net, I think they are in the nemesis crown supplement!

Surely two good sized bottles of wine are the perfect medicine for when a shooter needs to keep his handy steady during a street fight!

Great work here all round. The Gunnery School may not be my bag! If you enjoy firearms this is your ideal warband!

Big up to the warriors of Nuln though. If this first completed miniature is anything to go by, then we would like to see more when the weather suits you better sir.

Regards,

Stuart.

B-)

Great looking miniatures! Makes me want to put together a warband of my own
Indeed, the Gunnery School of Nuln can be found in the Nemesis Crown Supplement.
