Description
Inspired by a photograph inside a history book I had in high school. I DO NOT SUPPORT THE NAZIS OR WHAT THEY DID. In fact, I hate their ideals and am thoroughly pro-Semitic. But their uniforms are so cool... so cool to draw. This is a historical picture not meant to promote Nazi ideology or racism or anything Hitler-ish. SO BACK OFF, PLEASE.One of my old submissions from another (deactivated) account that I'm re-posting for the heck of it.

It looks absoloutley amazing, there are a few things that you could improve on here. The helmet. Flatten and the top and sharpen the front and it's all good.

Nice drawing. I reenacted as a German soldier before, and I can agree, their uniforms are very cool to draw, but even cooler to wear.

You drew this perfectly it actually looks like you took a photograph and wiped it clean of colour and background. i also love how his face shows confidence with a bit of stress.

This actually isn't nazi, this is the average German soldier, big difference. You did a really good job on this, the details of the uniform, the person and even the helmet are really really nice.

Great illustration, and I agree with ~EmirHamam When illustrating military of Nazi Germany, artists always start apologizing and going all defensive, convincing that they are not "evil nazis who did all the bad things to all people". History is history, and all this bashing doesn't change things.
Of course, we have tons of art depicting Red Army and NKVD troops, but you don't see them apologizing the death toll of Soviet Union.

Drawing a german soldier is FAR from being a nazi, people should learn some history before starting to bash the others

It's hard not to like the uniforms, they were designed by Hugo Boss after all
Hope you don't get mobbed, I swear, the amount of times I've had to explain to people that one can admire the German war machine without supporting their racist ideals . . . *rolls eyes*

Thanks!
And yeah, I hope I don't get mobbed either *shivers* In my defense, I AM part Jewish on my great-grandmother's side, after all.

Wow, you're just as good at drawing people as you are at your characters. Fantastic job - especially along the pockets and the cheek/jawline.

Why thanks!
I should do more of these, more often, but in the past year, my responsibilities have siphoned my ability away
