Up to your usual excellent standards, Michael. Your attention to detail is second to none. I like the thug ripping the poster off - excellent touch! :th:

Oh WOW!
That's out of this world Mike! Jeez buddy... and there's no mud....
Seriously, it's a beautiful piece that captures the moment as well as the emotion of the times.
I love that you did the brick dust where the bricks smashed into the tank. The washes certainly did their work on the brick and cobbles too.
I'll make a note of that one. Great idea and use.

The Pissed Off German looks a bit like Daniel Craig. haha.

I noticed those metallic specks/chips you've talked about before - very subtle but they do add a lot! :th: :th:

So on the 17th June 2014, I can really say well done Michael on a truly brilliant viginette.
Its is such an emotive subject.
This morning on BBC Radio 4 was a piece on the up-rising and the comment was made that Communism in Russia's satellite provinces started to crumble after the Hungarian up-risings and not when the Berlin wall came down.
Its a very moving subject and you have really pulled it off.

Now who is up for the Tank-man of Tienanmen Square?
