Thread: By request - artwork.

What about the pope in America, he appeals to masses.

In another lifetime he also appealed to fleeing NAZI's....for their cash!!!! Now, isn't this one an ex SS Trooper??

A picture of him....More chance of me waking up tomorrow with my bottom lip stiched to the bedside rug!

Hi all
Just to let you know my website's updated and there's yet another Chieftain on there with another on the way. Oh yes, there are ARVs on there too now by popular request from REME chaps. Thanks.

Can't be a 3 RTR one then. It's static and you can just make out the driver sat on his arrse with a brew by the right sprocket.

Hang on...sat on his arrse with a brew? Maybe I was right the first time. It is a 3 RTR panzer!

Biscuits mate

1. Surely tis better to be sat next to the right sprocket than....the wrong one???
2. The only times 3RTR Panzers were static were:
a. In corps reserve at the start of FTX.........Chosen because we were the only MBT Regiment trusted to get from A to B when Corps needed a long distance Counter penetration without stopping............for anything.
b. In a hide.
c. In a hide while having a smoker.
d. When the driver fancied a brew sat on his arrse next to the right sprocket............oh damn!!!!!

Just in case anyone's interested, shortly on my website, I shall be placing my original works on sale so people can use paypal to buy them if they want. Cheers.

Okay an update.
My website now has originals which are for sale on it. If you go to the art collection page and click on the page where you see Original Artwork written you'll find yourself in the right place!! I've just put 'Battle for Sibbesse Gap' in there. It won't be a print and is simply a 'what if' picture.
Fair to say, I'd be doing well if everyone who'd hit this thread and then bought a picture from my site. Either way, it keeps me occupied. Cheers.

All members of 2RTR, this is a print I've done of the main vehicles your unit served on in WW2.........Commissioned by an Hoocifier.

This by aother Hoocifier of his Telic panzer.

Just for those of you who don't know about or d know about but don't visit it.........here are a couple of my latest works to show I've been busy.

Firstly a montage created from the TINYEST snapshots to make a 'memory picture' for the commissioner.

Then my little lad.

and my stepdaughter

Was that a Major Sm**h you did the Telic 10 drawing for?

No, the initials are RM of Cyclops?

Now then
I'm branching out and making clothing, this first design (silver on a black shirt) is obviously aimed at my 3RTR brethren and is therefore only for sale to them but, I will be bringing out designs as and when aiming at all Armoured but, it could be any unit or organisation, some of them will be humorous. A CR2 one will be out as soon as I can afford the costs. If any of you guys want T Shirts designing and making for your units or reunions/Associations give me a shout, it costs the price per shirt + P&P. This shirt costs £14.50 +P&P. It is truly unique as it's my artwork and can only be bought from me so beware, my artwork is copyrighted and 'Still Part of the Crew' is now trademarked.

Very nice Arthur, is their a minimun order on the shirts?

Scarletto me ol' chum.

An interesting question that, obviously the bigger the order the better price I can get on the shirts. If it's a design that I offer for general sale and an individual wants the shirt then no but, for a unit or organisation then I'll need to enquire at the printrs. I knew how many of these I wanted but, some organisations may not have such a large entourage as 3RTR. So I'll make the enquiry and get back to you asap. Generally speaking I have to pay a fairly significant setup fee up front along with a piece prce for the finished article, the more pieces ordered the better the price.
Obviously if a unit/organisation wished to buy from me in bulk to sell and make profits into their fund whether it be a PRI or Regimental Association then we'd have to talk min order but I'd also build in a discount to maximise profits for that good cause. I would not however, do that for an individual, it would have to be on behalf of an organisation. Also, if someone had definate figures on qtys by sizing for that shirt it would be a great help. I do intend to contact each RAC Regiment's PRI in due course and if anyone could help me to get their PRI contact name and address and PM them to me I'd be grateful, access to that info is, understandably difficult to get hold of. The 3RTR theme is just the start, if someone has an idea then give me shout and I'll see what I can do. I will, from time to time design a shirt and post it on here or at least draw people's attention to my website.

Now then, moving ever onward, here's my latest piece, none other than our new world champ, Lewis Hamilton.

The newest prints I've done of real tank aces/heroes albeit one was German. All now available from my website.
