A very interesting subject, are some of the drawings based on real photos or are they just creations of the designer's imagination..? :?

I own some of the Osprey paperbacks, and many of the drawings are reminiscent of historical photographs.

Volstad's art looks as if it should be on boxes of model soldiers...

Ron Volstad, Mike Chapelle, Kevin Lyles are Ospreys best illustrators ever
