Description
Title says it all. Germans in a trench. Probably in November, or some other cold month of 1915.Drawn at school and at a friend's appartment. I listen and communicate better when I'm drawing.

There is something so fantastic about WWI imagery. It feels like such a surreal war, this strange transition in how warfare was waged. It also just seems insane. The whole chaotic world at war. It certainly has a strong mystique.

A mix of middle-age strategy with modern weapons, it was a slaughter.

Really good job. Shows their expressions well.

"I listen and communicate better when I'm drawing":
I used to think the same while I was at school but now I feel more the contrary because of how I am concentrated while drawing... Pretty strange change for me!

YES BECAUSE I WANTED TO SCREAM LIKE THE GERMANS
BY THE WAY I LIKE THE STYLE OF THE PICKELHAUBE SOILDER.

Germans can really screw you up! Love the "Deutschland Uber Alles" banner on the trench wall. They look really serious and tired. Poor lads. Well done!
We would have crushed the Allies, but our Schlieffen Plan was not carried out by the commanders, and we were a tired army. Then the Americans randomly joined in and battered our tired troops. All this mayhem, plus the impotent British and French with their Treaty of Versailles. They, right then and there, brought on WW2 and the rise of Hitler. Thanks a lot Allies, you started this war, then berated us into depression and starvation, opening the door for Hitler to step into Germany's gov't battlefield. All your fault! Wunderbar!
Great Piece, mein Bruder!

So this is really well drawn, I like the poses the men are in.
Now I've got a question: what is with the numbers on the helmets?
I'm not getting the joke.

If I may interfere... I'm not sure if the artist has a specific number joke in mind, but German infantry units (with few exceptions) displayed their regimental numbers in the front of their cloth helmet cover (as well, as on their shoulder straps) in the early part of the war.

Gott ist mit uns!

Cool! Fine drawing, you can really see the weariness on the German soldier's faces. Well done!

I was at a Gunshow recently, and I saw a couple of those WWI German caps for sale (as in, the kind that fellow in the middle is wearing).
Good stuff.

Jeez, I want one. But nobody sells them near me.

I'd imagine so...
Though, this was at a Gunshow, bear in mind - I dunno if that sort of thing is that common up where you live...

Nope, not at all... in Canada, we aren't crazy about guns like in the United States.

I figured so, what with your stricter legislation on firearm ownership. :\

Nicely done and your German is pretty good (not to poke but Deutschland not Deutshland). Nice work with the wood and shading especially. =3

Great drawing. There never seems to be that much World War I art. Even less of the German side. So great stuff!

Ze Germans, they're not amused.
The french trench must look the same, but with white flags attached to their bayonet attachments

Epic, but political totaly incorrect answer
I am always amused seeing the facial expressions you give to your characters.
Keep up the good work
