It's certainly a wonderful piece, very full of feeling. Although I must also point out that it was not American troops, it was British soldiers who played football with the Germans as at this period America had not joined in WWI. A very well executed piece altogether.

Yeah, it's just a drawing about christmas truces in general at war time.

I love the work!
I'm doing a project in social studies on the Christmas Truce and was wondering if I could have permission to put this on the artwork for the disk that me and my partner will hand in.

I find it necessary to point out that no americans were part of the Christmas truce because they had not yet joined the war

Oh DAMN, this is lovely! It's so animated and touching, and your sense of detail is so sharp!

I like how you draw expressions and how just a few lines can completely change the age of a drawn person =3 your detail is always amazing

Aw this is one of my favorite scenes of yours. I really love all the expressions, again, because there's something so natural to it. The way the one character is breaking the fourth wall, it makes it look like a photo snapshot captured at just the right moment. You seem to have a knack for that.

This reminds me of the story (and l'm not sure if it's true) or an allied forces regiment who were set right across a flat field from a German regiment, but on Christmas day they put down their guns and played soccer (or football, depending on where you're from). lt has that feel of wartime cheer.

I watched a bit about that on the television the other day on one of those history-minded channels.
Very interesting stuff, and that's what I thought of when I first saw this.
