[Fanart] Hogan's Heroes (lots!)

I can't believe I haven't posted anything here since November! Time flies :o) Well, since then I re-discovered Hogan's Heroes - caught a few episodes on (French) TV, and I remembered how awesome it was, so naturally I headed over to the Internet to watch the show in (mostly) English :o) Funny thing is, it kicked my writing bug into life again, and boy did I needed that. Turned out I actually could finish a story after all! (I'll be posting Soul Food shortly, I think - for the moment I'm trying to continue another one. I'm on a roll :D)
In the meantime, I doodle. A lot.
So here's what could be a snapshot, I guess: Corporal LeBeau cooking something that looks and smells kind of yummy, and Sergeant Schultz hoping he'll get a helping of it :o)

The next drawing is still very much a doodle (I didn't even clean all the pencil strokes) but I'll (probably) colour it one of these days. It's based off a still from the end of "The Great Impersonation", which is one of my favourite episodes; Newkirk, Carter and LeBeau have been caught and sent to another Stalag, so Hogan talks Schultz into impersonating Colonel Klink and spring them up. He ends up performing admirably (schnapps helped a lot) and the boys triumphantlyride into the sunset drive back to camp in a truck... And Schultz faints :D

There's a blank HH meme, and I did what I always do when I fill one of these things: I drew the answers :o) LJ wouldn't let me post the whole thing (too darn long, I suppose) so I broke it down to one picture per question. If for some reason the picture is cut (LJ does that), right-click on it and choose "Display picture/image".
1) So, soldier, how did you get into Hogan's Heroes? Answer, schnell!

2) Who's your favourite character? Draw them. It better not be Colonel Crittendon, old chap.

Used reference for this one, and it shows. Turns out LeBeau without his beret is slightly less difficult to get right than I thought. LeBeau does mention he's from 14th Squadron in (I think) "Reverend Kommandant Klink". So far I haven't been able to determine whether it was a real squadron or not :P
3) Why do you like that character?

4) Alright, reason enough. Now, what's your favourite episode? (I know there's a lot of good ones. Pick your ultimate fave.)

5) BAH! If Major Hochstetter started yelling at you in that very shrill voice of his, what would do/say? Draw it. That's an order.

I know a lot of people are Hochstetter fans, and frankly the character makes me laugh so much, but IRL I'd shake in my boots. I mean, really. The man's Gestapo, for Pete's sake :/
6) Draw what would happen if you were stuck in a caved-in tunnel with your least favourite character.

7) Draw one of your favourite scenes from the show.

From “That’s No Lady, That’s My Spy”. That scene always gets me, no matter how often I watch it — heck, I watched it again for postures/colours reference earlier and felt that familiar twist in my gut. Too bad the guys’ postures are wonky - Hogan and LeBeau are completely out of perspective in their relation to space. If that makes sense. I'll probably re-do that one :o)
8) What would be your codename for the Underground? (i.e. Goldilocks, Papa Bear...) Don't worry, I won't tell.

9) How would you make Schultz lose weight? Let's face it, he's too fat.

10) Almost done. What is your favourite catchphrase from the show? Draw the character(s) saying it.

When you think of HH catchphrases, you think of “I know nothing!!”, “Nobody escapes from Stalag 13” or Hochstetter’s “What is this man doing here?”… But the one that I prefer is the countless times Schultz catches the boys out of camp/doing something POWs should definitely not do, and they greet him with a cheerful, “Hi, Schultz!” Hogan looks a bit underfed in this one (damn, I can never get the head/shoulders ratio right, can I? :D)… Ah well :o)
11) Newkirk or LeBeau?

12) Last question. Would you rather go on a date/be friends with Klink or Burkhalter?

Klink is a Cloud Cuckoolander (of sorts). Burkhalter most definitely is not. And incidentally, Beethoven's Ninth Symphony is the one that has the famous "Ode to Joy" (An Die Freude) and yes, it is one of the most awesome pieces of music ever written :o)
And one more doodle for the road! So to speak. I coloured decently (I hope) Question #2.

The drawing itself was too small for me to scribble "France" on his insignia - hope he doesn't mind :o) (Oh, who am I kidding - of course he'd mind!)
That's all for now :o]
