He-111 drawing

[Violator]

Hi guys -- Here's a picture I drew of Willi Kriesmann's He 111. He flew with KG 53 on the Eastern Front but was shot down by fighters after 80+ missions. After crash landing in a wheat field, Willi and his crew were rescued by Panzer crews. An interesting note about Willi--the Arado 234 on display at Udvar Hazy? Willi flew that very aircraft. He's alive and well and was kind enough to sign the drawing...he's a super-nice guy!

I really love pencil drawings and this one is fantastic. My father is an artist and has similar profiles of vintage motorcycles and cars.
Cheers

Thanks A4K and Pong. Much appreciated! Hey Pong, I notice you've got a Roy Grinnell painting in your sig. He's going to be giving a talk next month at the Museum of Flight in Seattle. I can't wait! I met him once before and spent a lot of time talking to him about art. He's a great guy.
