Belarus & Ukraine military uniform versions

Now that I think of it, there are plenty of pictures that aren’t in the gallery.

Speaking of Belarus, upon looking at it’s history, it’s often said that the Belarusian language and Belarusian history resemble each other.
If you think of gathering some data, Wikipedia has some very detailed books.

Nordic


【Denmark】
A big-brother type who extremely vigorous. He’s pretty funny.
He likes his childhood friend Norway and believes that Norway thinks of him as a best friend too, but the truth is…


【Norway】
A mysterious young man that seems like he has little who depends on him and has an atmosphere like he had fallen from Ukiyo.
He somberly picks on Denmark but that guy never notices.
No matter what he says, Iceland is his little brother so he takes care of him.

[T/N: Ukiyo]


【Iceland】
A mysterious young boy with a cool exterior and a hot interior.
(Iceland is made up of ice on the surface and a volcano underneath, so the hot spring industry is pretty popular)
You can’t really tell if he yields to his older brother, and he’s pretty fantastic too.


【Finland】
Moi. It seems like he’s the really troubled one within these 5.


【Sweden】
……..

While I drew these, I was listening Fredrik Swahn’s version of “Du Gamla Du Fria” (the Swedish national anthem) that I bought off iTunes.
It’s a really good song!
I usually have “jana gana mana” (India’s national anthem) playing in my list.
This calms me down, too.
You can listen to either of those on iTunes so if you’re interested please check it out.

Unbelievable, America

Hello, it’s the corpse Himaruya Hidekazu.
I think you could mistake me for one right now.
I finally put together all my notes about the Meiji culture, so I want to draw the manga and put it up as soon as possible. Japan from this time period is so interesting.

That and my internet connection didn’t work, and as I went to look what is wrong with it and traced the line, I found it neatly cut in half, most probably bitten by a squirrel.
One is really thankful for Starbucks with internet connection in times like this.

The cables are often laid outside in American houses so it happens from time to time that a squirrel, a woodpecker, or a storm destroys the line. American squirrels are are pretty strong…

Answering a few questions again.

北欧の雰囲気っていいよなぁ (The Nordic atmosphere is nice, isn’t it!)


幻想的に不思議の国フィンランドと現実的に不思議の国スウェーデン。
この二国の国旗の青はどちらも湖をさすそうです。
 Finland, the wonderful country of illusions, and Sweden, the wonderful country of reality.
 The blue colour on both of their flags apparently symbolizes the lakes.
