Hey all
I was thinking about Green-stuffing some Handguns for my dwarves,I was just wondering if anyone else has ever attempted this or has any tips about it? I'm rather lost as to where to start.
Thanks all

I'm no sculptor, but my sense is that weapons are some of the hardest things to fashion (hence so many greens of models with prebuilt swords, guns, etc.).

You're probably better off carving the handguns out of sheet styrene (plasticard), or looking for a set of handguns on the intrawebs, but that's just me.

Thanks,but I ended up chopping up the pole from a standard and using that as the base of the gun,then I green stuffed straps,turny bobs and other bits on.

Thanks

By"handgun" do you mean a pistol or a "handgonne" (early medieval musket) ?

Hasslefree Miniatures have a good variety of weapons on sprues.

For my Dwarfs,thanks all but I think this one will turn up well.

they also make styrene in hollow tubes in various diameters as well as also in aluminum & brass that could help w/the barrels. I've used different sizes for heavy bolters & lasguns. Espsecialy when I try to drill out the end & wreck it.
