Ronald Volstad
RONALD VOLSTAD was born in 1949 in Alberta, Canada, where he still lives and works. Like several of Osprey’s leading military illustrators he had no formal art training, though he did work in a TV company's art department - before spending 15 years operating heavy machinery in the oil industry. His first illustrations were published in 1970; since then he has become widely known for his work in Squadron and Osprey publications and for Dragon Models, and has also worked as a courtroom artist for TV news.
