ITPSV Leopard 2 Marksman or as we like to call it: Ilmatorjuntapanssarivaunu 90 Marksman  

Hyped clockwork gun. 

Really exciting to see the real gun on a clear video. Only part missing is the shooting, but that won’t probably happen ever. Unless one day caseless ammo  makes a comeback.

Gun Jesus finally takes a look at the unicorn of assault rifles, the last step forward in self-loading firearms, Kraut Space Magic, better known as the G11.

Do you think if the airplanes at the Intrepid or any Aviation Museum were sentient, would they have good stories to tell about their career in the military or some kind of great achievement in their lifetime?

Probably, though I haven’t put much thought into how the living vehicles would interact with people. In my paintings they are just doing their jobs and the people around them are unaware of them being anything other than planes.

If we think about it a bit: the vehicles at a museum would be old and bored for sure though. In a sense a museum is close to an elderly care home, where they just sit around while we come and visit them.

If they could talk they would be glad to have visitors, just as would be the old pilots who flew the DC-3′s and other planes. But I like to keep the vehicles in my paintings just indifferent and the people around them unaware. 

So for real stories it is better to go and visit the real pilots, as most would probably enjoy telling about their careers.

Hey, are you ever planning on opening/taking commissions?

Been considering about doing so but I don’t have much time or energy to paint after work. Might open them at some point but not sure when. 

I regret nothing

North American F-100 Super Sabre testing the experimental zero-length launch system or zero-length take-off system (ZLL, ZLTO, ZEL, ZELL), a system whereby jet fighters and attack aircraft were intended to be placed on rockets attached to mobile launch platforms for a quick take-off without the need of using a vulnerable airfield. 

Hey man, just to let you know, I got both your eva videos, thank you! But since I don't see a place for them in here, I won't be posting them.

No worries I suspected as much when I submitted them. Thought that sub box was a better way to share video links than PM’ing as I can’t tell when you have time to watch them -> they get forgotten easily. Interesting topics nonetheless and good to hear you saw them.
