Veronica Lake, 1943
— Known for her iconic “peek-a-boo” hairstyle that fell over one eye, Veronica Lake was propositioned by the U.S. government to participate in a promotional shoot that would glamorize practical hairstyles — ones that would be safer for women to wear while working in factories during WW2.

Been swamped with other course work but I finally cleaned up that rough animatic for my final exhibition!
We Have Always Been Here is based on the heartfelt love letter of American WWII veteran Brian Keith, this poignant moving storyboard imaginatively brings to life his relationship with a comrade known only as “Dave”. The animatic sheds light on the relevance and impact of forgotten LGBTQ+ history during this current wave of political hostility.
Watch my full short film on Vimeo!
#honestly this entire project has been a disaster from start to finish so I’m glad something mildly presentable came from it#putting on my Intentionally Very American accent for this one#but yeah It’s Rough cos I don’t have the time for something polished but we move#maybe one day I’ll come back and revisit it!#illustration#animation#animatic#short film#lgbtq+#lgbtq history#ww2#wwii#my art

The Sturmgeschütz is and always will be my favorite German armored vehicle. I made a lot of models of this versatile German piece of mechanics, and they never bored me. Only 1 I made had a 1:16 scale, and with that one I finished my hobby...



Not quite figured out which I like best, the 3 or 4!









It's just fun to mess with these vehicles, mangle the side skirts, and add stowage racks on the back... so much you can do to it!


Even made a fantasy version...
The below version is the 1:16 one!


Please leave a comment if you are a STUG lover like me!
