For the all class cosmetic item, see Brimstone.
...I'll be waiting on ya with a whiff of the ol' brimstone. I'm a grim bloody fable... with an unhappy bloody end!
The Demoman on his old-timey bombs

A Whiff of the Old Brimstone is a community-created cosmetic item for the Demoman. It replaces the Demoman's six default grenade projectiles with four old-fashioned, fuse-and-gunpowder bombs, which are strapped to the Demoman's chest.

This cosmetic can't be painted.

It was later contributed to the Steam Workshop, at Valve's request.

The backpack icon was contributed by smash.mn .
