Your cast
We pulled these characters out of your story. Approve the portraits or try another — we'll use the same face in every illustration. Add each person's birth year too, and we'll draw them at the right age on every page: little at the start of the journey, grown by the end.
Give each person a face. We drew a portrait for everyone in your story — we'll use the same face on every page. Approve the ones you like, or tap “Try another” for a different take, and add a birth year so we draw each person the right age. Nothing is painted yet and nothing is final — you can change any face later. When the cast looks right, continue to the scenes.
Wayne Wilberg
Young Marine and truck driver aboard a transport ship
- Age
- early twenties, looks older than his years from hard work and wartime service, a settled calm in his posture
- Build
- broad-shouldered and sturdy, built for hauling heavy loads, medium height with thick forearms
- Skin
- tanned and weathered, ruddy across the cheekbones from outdoor work
- Hair
- dark brown · short regulation U.S. Marine Corps cut — clipped very short (high and tight) on the back and sides, short on top; a strict 1940s military cut, never a civilian side part or long, floppy styling
- Face
- square jaw, straight nose, pale gray-blue eyes with fine sun-squint lines at the corners, a small scar on his chin
- Wears
- U.S. Marine Corps utility uniform — sage-green herringbone twill jacket and trousers, with a single corporal's chevron on each sleeve, worn dog tags visible at the open collar, heavy lace-up boondocker boots dusty from the packed-dirt yard
- Details
- Period WWII USMC headgear ONLY — bareheaded, an M1 steel helmet, or the soft HBT utility cap with the stamped eagle-globe-anchor emblem; NEVER a modern knit beanie or watch cap. The left sleeve of his jacket carries a faded grease stain near the cuff from truck maintenance — his one consistent signature mark.
