Superb, I was wondering when you'd get around to painting some of these. ;D

Wonderful brushwork!
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio năo tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeăo mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

I should add that a recent radio interview about the Batallón de San Patricio, Irish immigrants and US army deserters who fought for Mexico has fired my interest in this conflict. I find their story rather interesting and a little moving.

It´s an interesting story:

I saw a movie about it: One Man´s Hero - pretty ok
