A fine drawing indeed. I think the scale is well represented, as well as the foreshortening. I really like his shoes.<br>
<br>
I also find McBride to be a bit on the squat neanderthal side, but he captures the spirit of a lot of these men. Lets face it, they are usually having a @#*& time when portrayed. He is also showing the effects of a very hard life. Lucretius sketch here also captures the essence of a soldier, momentarily at rest, but completely alert and ready to go kick ass at a moments notice. Bravo<br>
