Long time since I made something serious. It was fun to make.

This picture was taken a few days after D-day, in 1944. It represents two american soldiers playing with a young french girl's puppy. I don't know anything more.

It's a realy touching peice of art, and one of the best I've seen in a while. The shading and expressions on the people are amazing, not only does everything look real, the detail in this is incredible. I would have to agree with this 100%.

They might've bombed the French towns to smithereens... but at least they spared the puppies.
You did a great job on this one.

The pencilwork is a wonder.
