Current mood:  working
The time has come where I need to start getting things together to put out my art book. Your help here would be greatly appreciated. I know there are countless tattoos, art prints pinned to barrack walls, and shirts being worn on patrol. I would greatly appreciate good pictures, and testimonials (read below) from any of you that dig the gals that I create. I want my first book to be as wicked as possible and I need you guys ad gals. Thank you all in advance.

I first found out about Andrew while I was over here the first time in 2005 - a friend ordered me the "WWII Marine Girl" t-shirt as a surprise. I went to the website as soon as I could after that, and ordered some posters and another shirt, because I already knew I'd wear that one out in no time (and I did).??Andrew came through bigtime, sending several little extras - postcards and a couple of autographed smaller prints. I handed most of it out to other Marines, and before long we had an inspiring and highly motivating pinup staring at us all over our tiny camp in Ramadi. ??There's something about Andrew's work that does stike a perfect balance between the traditional pinup art from generations past and modern artistic technique. I can't quite put it into words (I *am* a jarhead, after all!), but when I see his work, I know it just *belongs* slapped up on a wall in these shot-up buildings and plywood shacks here where we live and work around the clock. ??Got here again this past February for another year, and sometime this summer I checked the site - again, I found some kickass Marine art (and a lot of other kickass new art) and ordered up some more. Finally got another mail call today, and the posters are going up as soon as I get back to my little base. It's a fucking SWEET gift for Veteran's Day!??I can't tell you enough how much it motivates us to see Andrew's stuff - not just a drawing of someone sexy (which you can find just about anywhere), but high-quality artwork tailored to our lifestyle, our Tribe, and with an eye for detail that belies his passion for creating.??Once again, thanks - keep doing what you're doing, because it helps us to do the same.??Jared?SSgt USMC

Yeah, I am trying to get a japanese merchant to make me a SEAL GIRL as a t-shirt, but I would love to get it as a patch. Overseas is still hard at times.. I love the shirts. Will take pix of shirts in action/garrison..
