Description Lest we forget.
N'oublions pas.

Ah well, it's all fuzzy and lightly drawn, don't have much free time nowadays. Gotta draw dudes more often lol

Proper version should be done in a few days~

11/12/12 Edits: Shaded and tweaked the lineart, along with conflict dates above each character. Digitally shaded, played around with opacity levels and colored that poppy field (In a somewhat rushed and terrible way~)

11/13/12 Edits: Sheesh, I know it's late but it's the intention that counts.

Are you aware that the 33 CBG Wellness Group, currently uses this as their picture on Facebook? Not sure if it's credited, since I'm not a member of the group but I thought I'd let you know. Really love your work btw

I just wanted to thank you for creating this. Someone on the Royal Canadian Legion facebook page posted it and I wanted to thank the OP.

Chimo!

I like this just as is. It's perfect! 
Thank you for not only remembering

Those who've left us, would also be proud.
I know I am.

The red flowers (dots) has me thinking of the In Flanders Fields poem. That was one of the parts of our war-literature unit I remember from high school. My class was shown this video among others.

Man, the song actually touched me. There is the annual parade from the Black Watch of Canada and people wearing the poppy during that day here. Sadly, it doesn't get much mentioned during school classes, from my junior to college.

The Germans knew that if it was the Canadians or the Scots coming then they were in for hard fighting.

The same thing still happens in Afghanistan, it has been said that the Talibans would take the US or UK troops head on, but never against the CF. x)

Thanks man! Well, the unique part probably comes from the fact that I just color over a pencil sketch. I'm such a lazy person.

awesome pic definitely loving the detail! As a side note, I was looking at this pic as I listened to "Amnesia" by Dead Can Dance. The song has relevance to the imagery. It fits :3

Thanks, I actually had the theme song of Band of Brothers playing in my mind while drawing this. Yours fits pretty well too.

Technically, we were a non belligerent country during this conflict, but we did sent some troops to Vietnam to enforce the Paris Peace accords. However, it did have some impact on us.

Never forget those who died for you're country. Correct me if I'm wrong, Remembrance day, isn't that the Canadian version of Veterans day?
