Mortarmen of the Zhongkui Battalion

Captured Heretics, or whatever remains of them, are stripped of their heads and lungs. A light mortar is fitted into the torso, so the carcass can move, deploy, aim, fire, and reload all on its own, giving invaluable fire support for Chinese infantry against regular Heretic units. But if they don't relocate quickly after a barrage, the Artillery Witch will call down retaliatory fire...

This was a fun piece of Trench Crusade fan art I did, experimenting with how to create horror-looking characters with Chinese Daoist elements.
