Nice. It will certainly resonate with some U.S. Americans.

Nice work. How long did that picture take you? I like the
chain maile, that came out well. Ever been interested in doing that sort of art work for a book?

Hehe, thought it was a fun parafraise on the marine theme, totally unhistorical though.

It took about 1 hour to do. It is done with feltmarkers from touch, many designers and graffiti artists use them for schetches.
That would be fun. I have worked professionally with art work a few years back.

Funny how it could almost be interpreted as the man on the right being chased by the others up this rocky top, wrestling to keep his flag :)

If yes from here, then perhaps we can PM back and forth.
Those "art books" are awsome, but there is only pictures...
I love to write books, but I dislike writing description of how things look; rather I like describing the emotional description of people and things.
I am capable of self publishing.
A partnership of writer and artist having a book with as much story as there is illustrative depictions would be a neat combination.
Your drawing style is very appealing. Would you be interested in giving it a test run? The story does involve knights and the like.
