Inspired by the Illustration Friday theme, Subtract, and the book Taken by the Enemy, in which a teenage boy is subtracted from his family by the Confederate army…
Yes, it’s a bit of a stretch on the theme.
This particular image is an experiment in working with a very limited colour scheme – no fun rendering or special effects.
(in)accuracy note: Major Pierson should be wearing a blue uniform, but the Confederate Army was known for wearing grey, and i figured i’d go with the Colour Which the Most People will Recognise as Being Confederate, instead of the Right Colour.
