As a civil war historian, I can say that this is the most beautiful sketches I have seen. The midst of the civil war was a terrible place to be, the men dying, and murdered. But they fought and since have been honored to be a Yankee or Rebel. I already imagine the pain of being shot in battle, but the real pain was the realization of your family in the news that you are dead. My spirits soar for the reason you have made this picture. Glory Glory Hallelujah and beyond! In the good grace of the Union! Hallelujah!

Excuse me,
I think it's a really good job and I want to ask you if I can use your artwork for a poster of the school that speak about of Buffalo Soldiers ?

This reminds me of Glory. The Cononel was named Robert Shawn, and he looked very much like this. Lovely picture

All is inspirational but I think this one is the only one is the o only one I feel comfortable attempting at my skill level.....practice practice practice and you are at the top of my list of artists! Totally awesome...

This piece is amazing, and it only took you two hours? That's another amazing feat. It takes me hours to finish my work lol.
The use of color, the great details, and even the fading of the horse's body are very clever. The scene makes it look as if they are in a sun setting field. I really like it. It always brings a lot of joy to see art from this era, I think you captured it amazingly.
Reenactments are as fun to see as they are to participate in. If you ever have the feeling to do one you should, they are great.

Very impressive - the use of the oil tool in Artrage combined with your adeptness with Photoshop produced a piece which has an excellent historical feel. Nicely done!
