part 347 dimensions of sight and sound

and of mind. Do do do do do do do do do do do.

How was your end-of-December-into-January time, meme? Did you make any New Year's resolutions? Or light a candle in your window in the hopes that Himaruya would update again instead of leaving us behind like an 19th century light house keeper's wife whose husband has gone off to sea? ... Did you?

Enjoy part 347!

Yup! It needs a sharp angle and a slight curve to the eyelid to make it attractive. Flat ___ lines don't look appealing at all with ___eye brows. It makes the face/eyes look too 2D. Prussia + Germany looks best with sharper features.

And same! I remember being very thrown when I saw this. He looks very delicate in these, but I think Himaruya wanted to show how really young he was. I'm sure these have a translated version somewhere. But I think there's a tidbit where Germany is modeled off the standard German propaganda youth...fresh faced or something!

Where Germany is youthful, Russia and England are supposed to be very baby-faced, like childish round features. Without the scarf his face looks longer so he looks older is what I think is going on, but Himaruya also doesn't know how to draw full frontal jawlines well, the side views are where we get any hints of a facial structure. So he looks different a lot of the times, because he's drawn totally different @-@ On the bottom left, his cheek is drawn too sharply, he looks super thin and almost guant in the face.. but I can kinda tell what he's going for??? Sorta... It's all up to headcanon too which is something i kinda like too...


AND I KNOWOWWW RIGGHTT. H-He at least draws denmark really consistently i noticed. I think he will return but I hope he stops doing longer events and just focuses on doing small things. He obviously had more fun with the doodles and the nordic strip than he did the event, stupid guyyy. Fingers crossed for a fast return.
