This is breathtaking, and I agree to leave the faces blank, or have them walking the other way with their backs facing viewer. Thank you for taking on this touching project.

i agree on the blank faces and the suggestion of different colors of each face

I was thinking the same...

No. It's not someone I know. But, My cousin was killed in Viet Nam. And, my brother was wounded and now is battleing cancer from the agent orange that was sprayed over there. I remember that funeral very well even though I was just about 10 years old when it happened.

I hope I can accomplish what I envision for it. And I'm still trying to find the perfect flowers and fern leaves for the wreath. I've got ferns in a light shade but none the color they should be. I may have to get some green fabric paint and do a little shadeing. so far, this has been a fun project, even though a little stressful. Thanks for the comments. So far, looks like the faces may be blank. But I might swap for a blender if I can find the right shade.
