Civil War Cannon

I rendered this view of what looks like a 12-pound Napoleon field gun for a customer in the Gettysburg, Pennsylvania area, to be used in multiple applications. I scanned my original pen-and ink drawing into Photoshop and then Illustrator, converting it to a vector image.
The view of the rear of the gun suggests the sense of looking out over the historic battlefield. I thought it would be a more solemn, elegiac image than a front view of a cannon.
