Description
Yeah... Funi's work on the dub irritates me, (Before you complain about that statement, I just want to say I'm entitled to my opinion on the dub and you are entitled to yours, capiche?) but I'm not going to let that stop my one chance to send thank you art to Himaruya! :3 I really only had time to do two of 'em, so I gave those two my all.America's face looks awkward, but I was too lazy to fix it. His card was very painful to cut out. That flag is actually pasted on top because I colored the strips wrong the first time.. ._.
And the Russia card was my first time using a copic airbrush. I'm pretty sure I killed three of my markers and the small can of air doing that. D8 Those buildings in the background are from a stencil I cut out by hand. NEVER DOING THAT AGAIN.
The scans and photos do the shiny ink no justice, it looks much cooler in person.
Materials: Copic markers, multiliners, Copic airbrush, and sparkly gel pen

MAN, I love the way they are cut, like in America's you can see clearly. It makes 'em pop off the page! Original work.

Thank you! I wish I could have thought of some more interesting shape to cut Russia's into, but it would've taken away from the background. :/

Those designs must have been hell to cut. >< But the results are fantastic!

The fact that I'm not particularly skilled cutting with an X-Acto knife didn't help either. orz Thank you!

It was incredibly difficult to cut! I hated myself for designing it that way half way through cutting it out. ;A;
Sparkly gel pens, first time using them since I was a kid! XD Remember when those things were the coolest ever?

They were terrifying. ._. I was about to go crazy cutting out that eagle. The bristol I used doesn't work well with scissors, so I had to do all of that with an X-Acto knife. *sob*
What kind of artist doesn't love shiny ink?
