Samurai drawings

Attached is a sketch that I am working on and may develope into a full color painting. It's a Japanese samurai that's supposed to be in the Momoyama period ( about 1600 AD ) . The armour represents the bare torso of the starving Buddha. Also, I had done a painting of Takeda Shingen 2 months ago ( see below ). The painting depicted him just before the Fourth Battle of Kawanakajima in 1561. Bigger image can be seen at : Takeda Shingen

Tiger 1313 military art print finished

It's been a hectic week as I was busy working on a comissioned project of a French Char B1 tank. Finally, I can find time at the weekend to finalize the detail of the German Tiger 1313 of LSSAH. The LSSAH Division Marking is added as a background design. I am planning to produce it as a limited edition print ( about 300 piece ) in very fine velvet art paper. Size will be 13in X19 in with image roughly 17 inches wide. Shown here is how the print will look like and detail of various part of the drawing. Stay tune for the releasing date and price of the print. German Pz Kpfw III Ausf M, Kursk 1943 .

Another Big Cat on the Russian Steppe

Apart the LSSAH Tiger 1313 profile, I am also working on the Das Reich's S33 Tiger I. At this point, I've only painted the dark yellow base coat and the green camouflage will be added in the next couple of days. Shown here is what I'd done so far.
