Photo of a Ger/CB/1911 battlecruiser
This is a photoart piece of one of the Ger/CB/1911 battlecruisers. They were to be 750ft long and would have 6-12in/50 BLR and 8-6in/50 QF guns. The armor basis was just 6inches. The speed was 30 knots.
I spent 11 years on active duty in the navy. Half was as an enlisted man and half as an officer. My Dad had interested me in the navy and ships, when I was young. I found that I was attracted to doing research, regardless of topic, although much of that research has been in the fields of naval and military history. My Dad was also an artist, and got me drawing and painting since I was three. Much of my work consists of portraits of military and naval historical figures, as well as ships and tanks.
