Purple Heart!
 

Here's a body Zach.
On the hood is a Purple Heart medal with the words:
The President of
Has Awarded the
PURPLE HEART
To
Staff Sergeant Zachary Olmeda
I painted the words in a "ghost" style so you'd have to really look to see them.
Zach was awarded the purple heart for wounds received in action in Iraq on 06 April 2004.
Also on one side is the Logo for the Wounded Warrier Project.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the compliments. Each image takes about an hour to paint. the most time consuming are the letters on the hood. Needed to design convert to my plotter, cut, weed and apply etc.Over all about 5-6 hours. As you know all the images are painted by hand with a brush and of course they are painted backwards or in reverse. Can get a little confusing at times.
