The Great Waldo Pepper card ...
not sure about general charcteristics.
If you have good ideas about this, or if you like the card, thanks for advices.

I like the idea and the cards. Nice work! I also like this movie. It is being re-released on DvD here in the USA in wide screen format. I have ordered a copy which will be here next week, can't wait to see in widescreen.

Eric!

That is great!

They played that two months ago on one of the Digital Cable Channels! First time i had seen it in years! No matching Ernst Kessler card?

Most excellent! And a great movie.

Cheers,

Do you know that Ernst Kessler character is based on Ernst Udet german ace ?
we just have the "wrong" plane for him ...like the Rolling tones said, just have "painted it black"

my next one will be Bruno Stachel card...

**het** · 08-05-2010 03:55

Bruno Stachel, from the Blue Max great movie.
this is not the DR1 he flies in the movies,( with unapropriate hexa graphic design) ...
or do you prefer with pin up, like I did for wwII fighters ?

**gregbond77** · 08-05-2010 14:16

Again nice work, keep 'em comming.

**het** · 08-05-2010 15:45

thanks a lot...from my "personnal collection"...the same card with some rude german pin up...
(the pin up is nor mine)

**richard m schwab** · 08-05-2010 16:44

Eric!

Another great card!

What Bruno`s plane is missing is the message he had painted on the top wing in English!

Have you read the book?

Rich

**het** · 08-06-2010 00:57

hello
don't know if the book available in french...i only saw the (excellent) movie.
what was the sentence on the plane , do you remember it ?

**richard m schwab** · 08-06-2010 13:55

Eric!

In the book Bruno is drunk a lot! He asks the ground adjutant who speaks English to translate an insult! This he has written in white on the upper wing. In the book he flies a few missions and does not get the reaction he wanted from the RFC pilots. He brings down a observation plane and is introduced to it`s crew. They really want to met the pilot with and this is a guess on my part, since they never say what it is. F**K ME on the wing instead of F**K YOU.

It is described as two short words! He has it painted over immediately!

He also does not talk to the ground adjutant, much after that!

**het** · 08-07-2010 03:36

well, it's perhaps too "hard", guess we have young fellow there ...
ask if you want me to remove picture.
but, i made some changes on the plane, add some "details", remove pin up (more wwII style) and add picture.

**richard m schwab** · 08-07-2010 04:17

Eric!

Keith may object, only time will tell! You might try EAT ME instead!

Rich

**het** · 08-07-2010 04:29

sounds good...any other idea ?
meanwhile, i've change wording...

**richard m schwab** · 08-07-2010 06:57

Eric!

Ursula Undress seems to be over dressed!

But that is just me!

Rich

**het** · 08-07-2010 07:35

the right way to fly

**gregbond77** · 08-07-2010 15:01

**richard m schwab** · 08-08-2010 05:51

Eric!

Have you done a JU-88 card yet?

I need one for a convention next weekend!

Ursula is still overdressed!

Rich

**het** · 08-08-2010 06:04

Ju 88, not yet

**Oberst Hajj** · 08-08-2010 09:45

Very, cool cards as always. You should upload them to the Files section as well. You can upload the "bad" where if you like. Just put a warning in the description.
