Looking for nice Italian wars guns and crew. Landsknecht looking crews; other crews. But what makers make the nicest looking cannon svulpts? |

start with the "Casting Room Miniatures" you have plenty of choices. Remember this is wear you got me started! also Front Rank has some beautiful artillery pieces |

Foundry would be my choice for some

olicana; what rules do you use? |

I second Olicanas Foundry gun recommendation |

Those Foundry crews are very nice for Landsknecht-style look. For some other styles, I would suggest also checking out The Assault Group ranges; notice that they sell guns and crews separately. |

I use Pike and Shotte with period amendments or my own rules based on the mechanisms used in Piquet / Field of Battle by Piquet Inc. The battle above used the latter, from memory. |

olicana; you have some great looking miniatures. "TAG" I forgot about them. |
Griefbringer | 13 May 2019 10:53 p.m. PST |
Regarding TAG (The Assault Group) crews, I should have mentioned that they have open hands and come with a mixture of equipment for serving the gun. Leftover crew members can also be armed with halberds or pikes. Old Glory also does a selection of guns: link |

You have left over crew members? |

For overall beauty and heft of castings which makes are best? Foundry, TAG and Old Glory? Maybe I should get some of each? |
