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.

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.

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
