Random thought of the day: modern day Ralph Lanyon would really enjoy Amyr and Tamara Klink’s books (and in Tamara’s case, her Instagram would make him buy a sailboat and winter out there in the Artic as she’s doing now)
#I mean.#tamara made me want to go off to the artic and live in complete isolation#not sure if her books are translated to English yet but her father’s surely is#(I need to read#100 Days Between Sea and Sky and I guess it’s a book I would enjoy but more nowadays than when I was 16#like all quiet on the western front#ANYWAY#random thoughts#the charioteer#????

i didn't appreciate the last AQOTWF adaptation from a storytelling point of view, but that movie's visuals are the core inspiration for my project and the reason i started thinking about it altogether.
here's a gouache study i did approximately one month before starting to work on the comic book (so probably january or february of this year)
#art#all quiet on the western front#ww1#im westen nichts neues#history#paul baumer#stanislaus katczinsky#painting#gouache#this was one of the only scenes that felt like aqotwf help#the colours in this movie istg

I saw that you were looking for ideas again. I’ve got another one for you.
Take a scene from your favorite piece of fiction or fanfic and draw that. Or at least your favorite character from that piece.
It's not actually my favourite but it's what came to mind when I saw the ask 😅
I had a sketch of another book but struggled too long with it so I retried 👍
Book is All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque
#Hmm#all quiet on the western front#yeah#i dont know that seems like a funny thing to tag 😅#considering what my blog is usually about#thanks for the help as usual#Had a total blast with it 😋💗#oh btw looks are borrowed from the movie#cuz Im just that bad at visualizing

Some people have normal hobbies, and then there's me crying over WW1 soldiers for the second day in a row on a random friday.
#LIKE FML#THOSE WERE SOMEONE'S SONS#BROTHERS#FATHERS#UNCLES#AND THEY ALL FAUGHT AND DIED AND SUFFERED FOR ABSOLOUTLY NITHINGZ#ONLY FOR THEM AND THEIR STORY AND THEIR CAUTIONARY TALES TO BE OVERSHADOWED BY WW2#LIKE I CAN'T BE THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS HOW FUCKING TRAGIC THAT IS RIGHT!?#ww1#ww1 history#all quiet on the western front

more historical fiction needs to be set in ww1. bonus points if you fag it up
#every time i check historical fiction books its like the year: 1943 and like OK geez#either ww2 era or like the 60s or 20s or some shit#can i PLEASE get a story set in the goddamn trenches of verdun thats mean and nasty about killing characters#sorry theres no easy “bad side” in that war ?? make the bad side the governments cuz thats what it was#my god. can i read about our protag watching some guy die horrifically from a gas attack#and then fuck one of the other soldiers to find any form of intimacy+comfort#read one book set in ww1 but it focused mainly on the russian revolution. still a good one i love u martha hall kelly#but they made this one random dude enlist in the air force and i was SURE he was dead walking corpse u know#but he SURVIVED i was mad. kill this bitch#pilots at a certain point in the war i wanna say 15-16 had such short life expectancies KILL HIM !!!!!#anyway if u have recommendations of queer ass ww1 books i will take them please and thank u#dont even have to be queer just want some all quiet on the western front type shit

I am half way through all quiet on the western front why did none of you tell me that bäumer was very gay for kat? Was I just supposed to find out myself?
#what the fuck was ‘I love him; his shoulders his angular slightly sloped frame’#and ‘we have a greater more gentle consideration for each other than I should think even lovers do’#and ‘his gigantic distorted shadow falls across me like home’#that goose scene was a dinner date y’all I will not hear otherwise#not that i’m complaining#this is like german in memoriam except written decades earlier by someone who actually experienced the front#anyways#all quiet on the western front

look I completely understand that Paul sees Kat as a family/mentor/father (??) figure but ch. 5 had me raising a singular eyebrow for a second
#comrade is the best descriptor tbh#yk times have changed when some sentences sounding a little more than platonic#what's stopping me from considering them is the 😨😨😨 age gap (obviously) and the fact a few sentences later paul states kat is like#a brother#LMFAO#all quiet on the western front#teacher literally brought this up in class 😭😭😭#paul baumer#stanislaus katczinsky#i love them sm if kat dies ill kill somrbody
