The Red Baron's cameo in Ottoway Volume 2. I might repost this on his birth and death days. Landscapes are my weakness, and bird's eye shots too. Thank George Barbier for the Autumn colour scheme.
Major Isenstein's red 1915 Chevrolet is on the road below.
@tristandelarkadien for landscape art exchange!
Vincent visited by the ghost of his departed wife. Lines vs colour. From Ottoway vol 2.
I had so much fun writing the Feldmaschall mothering his Oberst that I will be writing a prequal that’s at least 50% Von Ravenmarck and Vincent Odinkirk stuck together. :3 This is from Ottoway Vol 2, Von Ravenmarck was invented to explain how Otto’s older brother is considered and Officer and a gentleman, while Otto is a lower-middle class Private. He also shows that Vincent has a very different relationship to authority than Edwin. Ottoway is Otto-centric so Von Ravenmarck and Vincent’s relationship could only be explored to the degree that it effects Vincent’s attitude towards Otto within that work.
Ottoway vol 2 is now about 50% drawn up, my goal is to have it ready for release by next remembrance day.
-Parodying the 'He's watching you' anti German poster. -Major Siegfried Isenstein in nothing but his boots and helmet.
One of the most uderrated artists on tumblr... Don't change my mind!
Ottoway Volume 2 - Otto vs Tank
Passionate, biased, political. Events where millions of innocent people (mostly boys) were killed make me feel things, call me a bleeding heart. Zero-Dialogue scenes are my favorite.
Edwin and Otto in the tunnels beneath no-man's land.
WIP; Otto and his twin sister Brunhild in Pomeranian folk dress w/ golden apples. Block colours done.
Inked (yet to be coloured) panel from Ottoway volume 2 of unnamed French soldier caught in barbed wire, pose taken from 'The death of Laocoön and his sons'.
Peter, Kineko (the kitten) and Siegfried, lines.

Because one thing has become clear to me: you can cope with all the horror as long as you simply duck thinking about it – but it will kill you if you try to come to terms with it.

GRAAAAA AWESOME WW1 COMIC PROJECT, ITS LITERALLY SO COOL BCS THERE IS SO FEW CONTENT ABOUT WW1 AND WAAAAAAAAAAAAA
A few recent concept art pieces of Konrad.
Konrad was a later addition to Shell Shock so there was at least one named antagonist in the main story, but he has quickly turned into one of my favorite characters to draw/write for.
He may come off as stereotypical evil German character, but I promise I’ve got a little more baked into him than that.
