Description "Snoopy Vs. Red Baron"

After the turn of the century
In the clear blue skies over Germany
Came a roar and a thunder men have never heard
Like the scream and the sound of a big war bird

Up in the sky, a man in a plane
Baron von Richthofen was his name
Eighty men tried and eighty men died
Now they're buried together on the countryside

Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty or more
The Bloody Red Baron was rollin' out the score
Eighty men died tryin' to end that spree
Of the Bloody Red Baron of Germany

In the nick of time, a hero arose
A funny-lookin' dog with a big black nose
He flew into the sky to seek revenge
But the Baron shot him down "Curses, foiled again!"

(Course)

Now, Snoopy had sworn that he'd get that man
So he asked the Great Pumpkin for a new battle plan
He challenged the German to a real dogfight
While the Baron was laughing, he got him in his sight

That Bloody Red Baron was in a fix
He'd tried everything, but he'd run out of tricks
Snoopy fired once and he fired twice
And that Bloody Red Baron went spinning out of sight
........................................................
In art class we had to choose a 1960 song, for pop art in the 60s. Of course I grew up listing to the oldies station and this song I always blast on the radio and sing with my mother, also along with Snoopy's Christmas. And in this art piece art drawing or icon represents each part of the lyric to Snoopy vs Red Baron. Enjoy!

I like the mix of pieces from the song.  I haven't heard it yet, but now I want to.

 

I also like how well you drew Snoopy's expressions.  Adding the Red Baron's would have been nice.

sorry for not replying right away. I was on a Missions trip in Haiti, with my church. I just got back yesterday. The Red baron is the Plane, I did drew, at least two of them in there. But I am not that great at drawing planes or people. And Snoopy was pretty easy to draw. The song is by the Royal Guardsmen, it is a 1960s song, which fit with the era of this piece of art i had to do for the assignment in my art class. I grew up on listening to the 60s and 70s era, bc that is what my mom normally plays on the radio when I would ride with her to go to places.

hehe...thanks! I've been wanting to do this picture for awhile. Ever since I first saw the assignment in past years of advance art students. And I always wanted to do Snoopy vs the Red Baron, to match each part of my drawings to the lyrics to the 1960s song.
