Description

Following [link] and [link]

After the Krauts and the Tommies, meet the Poilus. Before you ask, I did use a reference (not for the faces, obviously). I'm not that good yet, sorry.

So yes, what to say about this piece. It took me only 3 days, that's a lot of improvement since the last two ones took weeks. I did not get lazy this time. I wanted to do another kind of group picture (two ranks of soldiers became a boring idea.)

I don't think I'll make other WW1 groups now, let that serie die on a high note.

In these group images I always seem to find one of the soldiers that remind me strongly of the style of Martin Brown, who illustrated the Horrible Histories series. And it makes me very happy for some reason.
