Drawing: USAAF macho man with AN-H-16 & AN-6530 headgear


Hi all!

I was drawing the USAAF macho man with AN-H-16 and AN-6530 headgear yesterday. First I wanted to wear the USAAF uniform on his body, but his body drawing was nice, so I didn't add shirts and jacket. Well, It is not the erotic implications. it's the sense of an artist who like the sculpture ;-)
By the way, The record player in my head is playing the tune, Village People "Macho Man"...

Liberator crew


Happy Holidays!

I painted B-24 Liberator crew. He is wearing B-3 sheepskin winter jacket and B-6 sheepskin winter helmet with AN-6530 goggles.
I didn't draw any nose arts, so I'll leave it to your imagination :-)

Especially, I will devote this to wonderful film maker Evan from UK!

Sonderkommando Elbe documentary and my little memory

Hello all,

It's August. Time is too early. I can't believe that.
After the exhibition, I have to check the address of guests for greeting cards,
but I haven't done it yet. Days are busy. No, I'm a poor time manager, lol.

Yesterday and today, I wrote the continuance of my novel.
I want to write the scene of the Stuka pilot soon.
He never agree with N**i party, but he think we have to fight to protect their country.



WW2: Sonderkommando Elbe 1, 2, these links are English version)

I was watching Heinrich Rosner and Klaus Hahn episodes of Sonderkommando Elbe.
B-24 Liberator heavy bomber crews and Elbe crews had fought so hard time.
I can't imagine all Liberator crews' experiences.
It's possible for me only to imagine it. Both experiences were fierce.
However Elbe's fighting methods was reckless. yes, like the Kamikaze.

When I was child, my classmate showed me her grandfather's photo. He had clothed pilot suits and after he drank a shot of last sake for his life, died. He was Kamikaze pilot.
It was shocking for me. Though he was early twentysomething, looked like admirable adult. I will wager that he never wanted to go. However, it was an absolute order of the countries. It was an unhappy event. so he had to grow up early. August 15 is the day World War II ended.
