Just bought a print that came in over the counter of some German Tiger 1 early style tanks. Got the website site and it has some other nice prints on it.
The one that I bought was "The Wedge of Iron" and the print has been individually signed by six Knight's Cross holding Tiger tank commanders
Check it out.

Art work some WW2
Re: Art work some WW2
He has some nice work however, his historical knowledge is a bit lacking.
For example:
"Waffen-SS Panzergrenadiers fire from the cover of an abandoned King Tiger near Jameppes, Belgium in October of 1950. A limited edition of 1000 prints with 50 artist proofs signed by the artist."

Re: Art work some WW2
I noticed at least 2 or 3 typo's in his website also. Don't know who did the proof reading on his website but that 1945 - 1950 error was done at least twice. Of course I look at the typo errors on my website and his looks great and his art work even better. After a proof read of this short note even with the error correction and spell check I still had to fix several things. But at leeeeeeast I fixxxxxed themmmmm before I finished this.
But nice artwork with some German autograph's. Like on mine, it was signed by six Knight's Cross holding Tiger tank commanders. One of whom wrote a book that I read several months ago and now I have his autograph, Otto Carius. If you get the chance read his book, Tigers in the Mud. An interesting read.

Otto Carius is still alive. I keep meaning to look him up when I'm over there or send him a copy of the book to sign. I should hurry up and do that soon.

Re: Art work some WW2
I agree with the above-a very talented warrior! The book is currently availlable from Stackpole Books,part of a series on WWII. The Micheal Wooten print series is also excellant,why he would have such poor proofreading is beyond me! ---bil

Good Art,,, poor proof reading....
Thanks for the link, maybe next time that I or my son is in Germany we will try to stop.
Thinking about framing the Tiger print and putting it on the wall.
