Hello. Thought I'd post a painting from my friend that I work with, Derek Lamparter. Here is what he had to say, "last two seat recon plane to see mass production from the L.V.G. Armed with one fixed Spandau gun firing forward and one parabelum flexible mounted on a rotating ring. Many allied pilots found the L.V.G. a tough customer, even though being slower than a fighter". Hope you like his work, he is very talented, the photos don't do them justice. Thanks for looking, Wingman out.
