Obsessed with military nerds who are willing to risk a court-martial at best and accused of treason at worst because their favourite tank/aeroplane is ever so slightly wrong (often to the degree that 99% of regular people wouldn't even notice) in a video game
Entartete Kunst, 1937
I wanted to say that I love your art! I think its super cool and that when you do finish your graphic novel for All Quiet I will be shelling out money for it <3
Thank you so much for the kind words, all support means the world to me, and I appreciate all the positive feedback everyone has given me since I started sharing my process. As far as the publishing the novel is concerned, I really hope it gets to see the light of day, especially since I am taking care of everything myself, but hope dies last :')
Historical funfact! The person who Made best prosthetics for veterans was a woman, and the guy who did first restorative plastic surgery on their faces also did gender affirming surgery for trans people
thank you for mentioning this topic, anon!! anna coleman ladd's work is an extremely interesting research ground i got to explore a while back, however i'll have to dig down the surgery rabbit hole, as this was not known to me
sidetopic is that i did a painting with the face casts last year which is actually the reason i'm going to my first physiotherapy appointment for my chronic wrist pain tomorrow lmao
happy holidays once again guys, have the obligatory xmas truce card
oh artemy we're really in it now
i aim to view historical events and topics objectively, openly, and dispassionately.
my main project is based on an anti-war novel, the publishing of which caused the author to flee his country, escaping punishment by the regime.
MY FIELDS OF INTEREST IN REGARD TO HISTORICAL RESEARCH DO NOT AND NEVER WILL INFLUENCE MY BELIEFS IN ANY WAY. research and engagement with historical topics of any kind, as well as their portrayal in my work IS OF PURELY FACTUAL ORIGIN. imposing or promoting any kind of doctrine or radical political views is completely out of the question.
therefore, I WILL NOT TOLERATE PEOPLE WITH SICK BELIEFS AND/OR WEIRD FETISHES. i ask everyone who's into re1chblr and any other of their equvalents (including those which apply to ww1), to NOT interract with my posts or follow my account. for those who already have, i advise you to leave willingly. you will be blocked unless you unfollow me for good.
thank you for reading.
concept portraits of albert kropp
i read somewhere random that his earlobe gets shot off in chapter five and i swear didn't see it anywhere in the book but it was a cool creative liberty to take with his design, i think i'm keeping it for a little more character
