Illustrator Victor Ambrus has died. I used to watch Time Team just to see his work. Best known for his history themed work he could also draw sweet cartoon ghouls and monsters.

I would love to be as brave an artist as Victor Ambrus was. His illustrations were pure fire to the imagination. I’m lucky to own one of the books that got me obsessed with military history. A legend now gone the join the pantheon of great history artists.

Very saddened to just hear of the passing of Time Team artist Victor Ambrus. A fantastic artist and a huge influence on me. I think he influenced and brought more to Time Team than may be realised.

RIP Victor. Here is some of his stunning work below.
