I want to show my cart and cannon limber I have made for my small Landsknecht army.

Cart is from Perry miniatures with some added elements to make it fit more the landsknecht-theme of my army.

Cannon limber is scratch-build from primarily a GW cannon and matchsticks.

Hello Garder,

Great unit you have there a job well done.

You write that the limber is selfmade? Could you do a tutorial or maybe post a few WIP pictures?

Cheers,

Henerius

Thanks for the nice replies

The landsknecht was suppose to be wounded but I guess a landsknecht sleeping of a hangover is more in keeping with the theme.

The cannon limber is very simple. The two wheels from the GW plastic cannon is mounted on an axel made from a matchstick. A longer piece of matchstick was glued at a right angle to the axel. This is in one end connected to the yoke, the other (shorter) end had the tip of a cocktail pin glued on top, where the gun is connected. A short bit of matchstick was glued next to the axel on top of which a box (from a WW2 tank storage kit) was glued on. The dolphins and rings from the GW cannon was added, and finish... Unfortunately I have no WIP pictures, but it really is very very simple.

Very characterful. The roadside sign is also nice.

Excellent work, some marching crew would finish it nicely perhaps?

Great stuff - not enough logistics in most armies !
