    A set of 8 new pencil drawings by David Pentland, featuring Knight's Cross winning tank commanders in the German army of World War Two. These new pencil drawings have been signed by the tank commander shown in the drawing.


    Warning: The prices are not for the faint hearted :D

    marcus69x I love WW2 meah!!!

    Some excellent art work there like, although you're right, nearly had a heart attack when I saw the prices.

    How do people manage to charge so much for drawing and actually sell them?

    Wish I could. lol.

    Hi,

    A lot of good artists rarely earn back the time and effort they put into their art.

    If you thought about what you would charge per hour of your own time and then multiply that by the hours spent researching, doing sketches, and then actually painting ... a lot of the time the piece of work is under-priced. But the clever ones sell signed prints.

    Having said that, originals well out of my reach, but I do covet some of them. One of 1 IG in Anzio @ £2,400, a snip! ;)
