Very good example. I got frost bite looking at it. I like the way you have the fresh snow and you show the foot prints of the soldier pulling his wounded comrade. You have captured the dismal situation straight on. Bravo. and three cheers

Charles, you have created another masterpiece!!! I love the cold feeling I get just looking at it. It sends shivers down my spine. The dio on the whole is excellent. The painting of the figure on the sled is what really catches me though. Cheers to a job well done. Kevin

C, the moment I saw it on the other website without even reading who made it. I already knew it was yours, as always my good friend, outstanding and original. Hope to see you in 2 weeks. Still working on mine, painting begins tomorrow and should be finished in time. Take care bud.
