Very nice job. I really like the complete story you have embraced with one simple figure. Well done. I like the base and how it echos the strong stone feel of the patio.
Well done.

Sorry the photos came out so "grainy"... i did the opening shot in a B/W Grain effect on purpose, to make it look like a documentary photo, but did a terrible job on the rest.... thanks to TinCan for doing a nice salvage job with what little I gave him to work with... but ... just today i went out a bought a new 4MegPix Kodak camera... better photos are coming!
Thanks TinCan!
Thanks TinCan!

No problem Keith. If you send me more pics I'll try and get them swapped out with what's in the article if you want.

Keith, GREAT work. Just one thing, by 1934 Hitler was already in power and had also managed to purge any rivals (the SA). He certainly would not have been hanging around Bavarian Biergartens by this point. Maybe it would have been better to have titled it "Der Bier Garten 1924" (or maybe 1928).
Just some anachronistic insight.

Just as good is the Profile picture of Mr Mcgee and his son. Looks like they just got arrested and assuming the pose for a body search
