Firstly well done to everyone who has taken part thus far in the previous two months. Secondly, an invite to everyone else who wants to have a go, the more the merrier.

So, after much deliberation...and a bit of thinking too :D ...this months topic is:

Moving Up the Line

This can be in any theatre of war or, indeed, time of day, the choice is yours.

All the best everyone and I look forward to seeing your contributions as they are posted.

With regards,

Tim

Finally one I can handle with no artistic talent at all.

This is my interpretation of moving up the line - at night! :lol:

Is there a prize for first submission of the month?

Oh, excellent - that light in the background that they are heading into - scary. And the faces limned in silver...I like night scenes.

A creditable, stereotype-busting offering; although I fear we may have to 'massage' the voting system in order to be victorious, Soren.

Soren

Out of pedantic curiosity, a) why Seaforths? B) can we tell they are Seaforths from your drawing? c) are the wounded Aussies in the ambulance?

No not from looking at them, generally I just portray soldiers without rank or regiment... the wounded Aussies are in the distance, two figures limping back as the re-enforcements go up.

Unless the Seaforths did not wear kilts. I like to feel that I know what I'm drawing, but I'm always a student of the great war and I must admit I get confused about who wore kilts and who did not.

always a student

Soren :D
