Alright, I've always been fascinated by the two World Wars. The events leading up to the wars, the players involved, the motivations and, in this case, the costuming. This image was a costume study of a Canadian soldier, circa WWI. Now, I did take a few liberties -- the jacket is based on an Australian soldiers, and the collar is based on a Russian. What fascinated me most when reading up on the Wars was that soldiers had to carry upwards of 40 kilos worth of equipment when running into battle -- thus, the enormous backpack.
I would like to include some more smoke. As well, perhaps some phantoms chasing our good soldier through the graveyard. Regardless, enjoy!
