Illustrations Update
I have been rather lethargic and distracted these days, hence, the lack of postings of illustrations. Scanning can be quite a chore at times.
Anyhow, I have more or less recovered from my cold and will soon be scanning new stuff to put up.

No need to bring your guns

Hi Chuang,
Hope you'll be feeling better soon. Are you a military modeller, seems you are interested in the AFV stuff.
Cheers,

Hi Vince,
Well, I'm not a modeller. I am just someone who reads a lot of history, from Byzantine history to warfare on the Eastern Front. I have read my Guderian, Manstein, Liddell Hart a decade or more ago.
I am an occasional wargamer. Beyond that, yeah, I dabble. I draw. Nothing like the fantastic stuff you have on your blog. Those are splendid work! I am staggered. Are you a staff artist for Concord Publications or some other professional journal?

Hi Shyue Chou,
Nice to have your feedback:-)
I did worked on a number of DML boxart and a Panther book for Concord but that was ages ago. Now I am working freelance for Trumpeter (which include some of the recent Russian KV series) and another NZ wargamming company.
I like figure sculpting and military modelling and this slowly evolved my interest in doing military art. Like you, I am also addicted to history stuff and my recent interest is the Japanese samurai armour and Polish Winged Hussar.
cheers,

Hi Vince,
I have seen the Trumpter model kits around town. Wow! You draw for them!
New Zealander wargaming company? May I know which one that is? I am curious because I haven't heard of any NZ wargaming company. The ones that I know are:
GMT Games.

Decision Games http://www.decisiongames.com
Avalanche Press
http://www.avalanchepress.com
Multiman Publishing

OSG

Figure sculpting. Okay, I saw those on your site. Wow! Did you construct them yourself or are those model kits?
May I know how long you have been doing military art?
For Japanese samurai armour, I assume that you are speaking of the elaborate 16th century samurai armour?
The Polish winged Hussar, okay, I have seen those. European cavalry from the 16th century to the 19th century are fascinating. I have been interested in the Thirty Years War, the Seven Years War, and a few other periods. And I have been reading up on those.
In addition, I am pretty interested in the wars of the Renaissance. Hence, the reiters, organ guns and other strange things from that period.
