~~
The Germans in the North African campaign, 1941.

According to the reference photo description, this shows the 15th Panzer Division led by Gen. Erwin Rommel ("der WΓΌstenfuchs") wandering through Libya. The guy on the left doesn't really look like Rommel, but ...oh, well.
~~

This time i also used mechanical pencils with thin mines in addition to my old B2 and B6 pencils. I'm sorry that the details aren't visible, i've put some effort into them. If i'll get a better shot at this, i'll post some close-ups. Do i have to remind you that i don't have a God damn scanner?!

EDIT
Close-ups: [link]

Ach, why do they look like zombies with those dark eyes? o.O

It's great, I've never seen anyone draw that pic before. I love how Rommel subtly poses whenever he sees a camera.

Thanks!


About the zombie eyes... Well, if you don't count the fact that this is a photo and not a scan (no money to buy a scanner, sorry...), thus resulting a very blurry image, than one can say it's the sun, or the shadow from their cap peak...

And yes, that's right, i love that Rommel was always posing! But he's nothing compared to Himmler, who was definetly a cam-whore.

Himmler was always magically posing in front of tanks in a provocative manner. It's hilarious.

I see. Eu fac la liceu din plin germana si se presupune ca stiu, dar nu e universal valabil ...

Its fits the clubs theme perfectly.
Turn the tulip lens on the camera when taking photos of drawings. Use photoshop too. Gets more detail than scans.
Well drawn, especially the car. The birds in the background add to the image as well.

Thanks for the advice! I'll try that. And i do use photoshop to enlighten them, but still...

Great job... I actually don't think the blurriness detracts from it much, it kinda gives it an "old photograph" feel. Nice work.

This might sound a little funny, but i must wait till daylight to take photos again. Natural light makes them look more clear. I know, i live like a cave man .

And thanks for the fav!
