Description
I've been playing a lot of Command and Conquer Red Alert 3.The lowly Conscript unit of the Soviet Empire continually amuses me. They're the weakest, cheapest infantry type but have so much personality you can't help but be cautious in their deployment. I love their animations (casually swinging their rifles to bat at stones when idle, trying to drink their molotov cocktails) and their quotes are some of the best in the game if not the series.
"Just like training video!"
"This is nice clothes!"
"They have guns too...?"
"As child, I have always dreamed of torpedo attack on dolphins!"
I've actually always had a thing for a Soviet-punk, especially clothes: thick gloves, long coats and fur hats.

Dude...I'm not sure how
I'm not an artist. I'm barely a cartoonist. I've tried several times and nothing came together. I'm very sorry, especially since you've been so patient.

Sure (and thank you!), but your backer reward wasn't me making artwork XD
I can try for figure art similar to this. What would you like?
I'm sorry: more complex stuff is just beyond me. It's why I hired another artist to do the motion comic

Well one is rather mundane
And its for my kaiserreich fanfic
thatnerdwithglasses.deviantart…
One is drawing what one if the internationle soldiers look like. Though it ultimately boild down to looking like this
cdn.britannica.com/700x450/99/…
Mostly to avert the cliche of “alternative history=advance technology” and keep it (relatively) realistic. but one idea is drawing that the qing’s “ceremony gaurds” (read basically the Chinese/Manchurian version of these guys en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen%27… ) would look like
Another idea is to do photoshop similar to these generalorder4.deviantart.com/a… thatnerdwithglasses.deviantart…
And i can provide references
Or just a simple poster (and provided details)

Thatnerdwithglasses In reply to Generalorder4 [2018-05-07 06:44:11 +0000 UTC]
Well like is said
I generally try to keep things (pseudo) realistic
I mean theres a reason why green or kahki is the defult color in military wear
Hence why i going to make it interesting and designing ceremonial guards aka the guys who would dress conspicuous

So just to establish: do you want a ceremonial guard in a realistic style with elements of cultural garb but maintaining a practical camo pattern?

Since time immemorial, the forbidden palace has stood as a symbol of imperial glory. Not much has changed really, today the palace houses the current emperor Jin Yuzhang. Though out he 20th century, it would exchange hands multiple times. From the Xinhai uprising to the japanese occupation during the 2nd sino-japanese war.
Every yeah the palace attracts millions of tourist with only the great wall surpassing it in guests.
Laws regarding the status of allowing it to be open to the public was changed in 1970 under emperor Pujie. With the first foreign head of state being president Bayard Rustin of the Amercian Commonweath of Labor in 1976.
Also heres a a little game look up the names i listed

Pro Gus Hall infomercial
As a public speaker in Chicago Gus Hall helped rally the workers to the call of revolution and saving America from Reactionaries
As mayor of Milwaukee Gus Hall closed a billion dollar budget gap and returned money back to the pockets of the working class and created jobs for the unfortunate.
Gus Hall wants to save our country and gave power back to the people
Isn’t that what we need for America today?
Gus Hall for President – he can save our future.
Anti Gus Hall infomercial:
Narrator: Who is Gus Hall?
Gus Hall: I am a man of the people
Narrator: fact! During his time as mayor of Milwaukee, incarnation rates rose up by
5%
Gus Hall: we have made sure that crime is dealt with in a civilized manor
Narrator: Fact! Under Gus Hall Milwaukee reintroduced the death penalty, the first City to do so since the 2nd civil war.
Gus Hall: I think that our duty, as a nation, is to maintain peace
Narrator: Fact! Gus Hall has used his own funds to back hawkish agitators
Narrator: So who is Gus Hall?
Gus Hall: a bit old fashioned
The 1977 election was one of the most hotly contested elections in the history of the American Commonwealth. One mar d by the tragic assassination of Leading candidate Harvy Milk. In the end, Gus Hall and the vanguardist part won.
Input and questions are more than welcomed

But yeah. Funny enough japan still went all banzai but this time had to face a (relatively) more unified china. In addition to a ultranationalist russia wanting Vladivostok back. The 2nd sino-japanese ultimately ended in a rough victory for all.
Russia and china got their lands back (Vladivostok and Manchuria respectively) and while japan lost the above fore mentioned territory in addition to korea, it controls Indonesia, the Philippines, and Hawaii. (Though they would loose it in the 1960 Hawaiin revolution)
Today (2018) both Qing China and Japan are having their own little nuclear arms race over the Senkaku Islands (japan never got nuked and article 9 never happened)

A Homeless man Asks a Teenage Boy for a donation. The Boy replies:
“Comrade Dellums says I don’t have to help you. He says I can do whatever I want, and I don’t have to tell you or listen to you.”
The boy starts beating up the man
“Is this the right future for the America? If you don’t think so, then contact your Union Representative and tell them to vote to remove Justice Ron Dellums today, before he makes this a reality.”
Boy: “Ron Dellums says I can also take any cash you have when I want, and I don’t even have share it.”
