Mordheim: Captain, Blunderbuss Marksman, and Warriors

More characters for Mordheim! This first picture is my captain and a marksman with a blunderbuss.

The man on the left is the captain. He's a figure from Reaper Miniatures called "Jakob Knochengard, Human Ranger." I got the figure in the Dreadmere expansion box from the Bones 4 Kickstarter. It's a great model that I've wanted to paint up for a while, and this project gave me a good reason to do so. I filed off a few of the bits that made him more "vampire hunter" and added some feathers to his hat to make him more Mordheim. He's armed with a sword and a brace of pistols. He's also a bit taller than the rest of the warband, since Reaper Heroic Scale is taller than the Perry Miniatures or, especially, the Warlord Landknechts.

Case in point, the marksman body is from the Warlord Games Landsknecht Missile Troops box. The main weapon (a nock gun standing in for a blunderbuss), arms, backpack, and head are from a Wargames Atlantic British Riflemen sprue. It took a little doing to get the head to work with the body, but it turned out nicely. I also included a bow (wrapped up to protect it against the weather) so that the Marksman isn't literally a one-shot threat.

Every warband needs a few cheap bodies to get stuff done, so here are three Warriors armed with a club/mace/hammer in one hand and a knife in the other. They're not pretty, but they'll get the job done (hopefully). The bodies and heads are Perry Miniatures Agincourt. The weapons are mostly based on that sprue as well, but with beads for mace-heads and a few knife-hands from Frostgrave boxes.

I'm still not 100% on my warband composition, but there's a good chance that most of these guys will be included. The only one that's really iffy is the blunderbuss marksman, since he's extremely expensive... but I do like the model.
