Very nice. Really like the rubble. Working on something similar myself. Nice composition.

This is really well done! The figures each have a war-weary appearance to them, and even the horse looks tired. Thanks for sharing!

Gives a strong sense of atmosphere of war just being an unending slog through rubble, men reduced to walking next to a horse as it pulls an improvised desperate device for the hopeless task of fending off always numerically superior forces.

Got to agree with the comment about the rubble, you really have managed to get the colours and textures right- I've just made a mess of one of my dios by over painting the rubble till it became too uniform in colour.

The way I do my rubble is to firstly stick it down with watered down PVA. Once this is dry I give it several washes of earth tones and black.I then finish with dry brushing in different tones of light gray.
