This is reflecting on the fear, and visual images that were left in the minds of the veterans of world war II. I respect them with the utmost respect, and I hope that you do too… I was inspired to make this wp after talking with nitsuj-ex(a great deviant here, and creator of great WWII WP’s)… he shared some of his insight with me, and I decided to whip this up, thought he might enjoy it, and I like it a lot too. Make sure you get the full view on this one, so you can see the reflection in the eye… it is quite memorable, and struck me deep when I saw the final product, enjoy

Daily Deviation

Given 2001-10-27
Those vivid memories by jedeye459 is a touching and beautiful piece. A tribute to WW2 veterans it captures an almost frightening moment. I stared at the reflection in the eye for a good minute completely captivated. Great style, brilliant work! ( Featured by $devart )

There isn't an A+++ option!!

Great work! This really captures the sad atmosphere during the war, and the pain the soldiers and families went through. The colors are great.. they add a lot to the mood. I like how the eye is slightly looking upward.. The reflection is great.

The tentacles.. I think they are imaginative, very well excecuted, and I like the idea.. but they don't really have much to do with the war.

Other than that, I love the texture and the roughness of the eye and background. Very emotional piece. Congratulations on DD!!
