I am thankful to have a piece of his work also. He's really gooooood.

That's another good one.

Merry Christmas (late) and Happy New Year bro!

Very nice. Much like Dick Kramer.

Who is "Jim" and does he do cop stuff?

I be Jim and I would do cop stuff. :D

Glad you guys like the artwork.

To tell the truth, Dick Kramer is my idol as far as artists go. Plus, he's a super-nice guy. His work amazes me, the detail is insane.

Wow, if that's "doodling", what does earnest "drawing" create?

I drew up a SEAL Trident and had prints made. Dick Marcinko then autographed a bunch of the prints for me. I gave him a bunch of prints for his time and trouble, so now Demo Dick has some of my artwork.

Some other celebrities that I've given artwork as gifts to include R. Lee Ermey and about a half dozen of the Easy Co. paratroopers from the Band of Brothers.

Here's a B-17. I'm acquainted with a gentleman who flew in the ball turret during WWII. He was shot down over France and captured by the Germans and spent time as a POW. He was kind enough to autograph some of these for me, and I gave him a bunch for his kids and grandkids. He's a wonderfully nice guy who lives about 15 miles from me.
