Yes. We just like the thought of doing a WWI German. But hell you could do a German barbarian with a bow if you wanted to. ;D

Creative direction on my part. I like the pose. There were a few Six shooters used during WWII. The most famous were the Pearl handled ones used by George S. Patton. You appreciate that he would probably have gutted you and fed you to Italian POWs for saying that! They were ivory grips. As Patton viciously told some Stars and Stripes correspondents 'Only a pimp in a New Orleans whorehouse would have pearl grips.'

I know I forgot to correct it here. After making sure I had the right material... DOH He was the man, the Pimp, The General.

An uncle and a grand-uncle both served under him in the war and said Patton was at once the biggest SOB they ever saw and at the same time, the bravest SOB they ever met. He didn't ask his men to do anything he wouldn't do himself and was always right up there at the front seeing for himself what the situation was.
My grand-uncle was also under MacArthur after the ETO wound down. His opinion of Mac was decidedly different and I think the thing that always grated on him was that MacArthur was more of a traditional general - the kind that stayed at the rear and issued orders without taking the kind of chances men like Patton or Bradley took.

When you think about general's and their idiosyncracies I always think about that quote from the movie Gettysburg, "Generals can do anything. There's nothing so much like God on earth as a general on the battlefield."
ANYWAY, I'm ready for the Occult book to come out. Looking at all these samples is painful!

I must admit I was a bit unsure when I first saw a zombie reindeer tagged as a Wendigo, but it's really starting to grow on me. Certainly as some kind of spirit of feral hunger, yeah it looks pretty cool so it does. Proxy?
