[Question] Official Scotland Design?

[bahbahla.livejournal.com]

Everywhere I look there's fanart of the nation Scotland. At first I thought maybe they were just explosions of OCs, but they all look alike! How did this come to be? I checked Himaruya's blog, and I don't see anything on it, but maybe I missed something?

I'm sorry if someone already asked this!

I agree, I feel the rage. I said the same thing in the original thread about this OC. This idea of England being abused by his brothers, man I don't know where it came from (I guess it was the 'bullying' comments Himaruya made), but it sure is scarily inaccurate. I think japanese fandom loves making England into a poor uke. >:(

I wish so much that the fans would stop making England out to be a poor uke. And I wish they'd stop drawing him so short too! He's only 2cms shorter than America, yet you'd think he was four inches shorter in some of the US/UK fanart out there ~__~ Also, I'm a firm believer that England can kick some serious ass - he was a pirate in the past amongst other things too, so he definitely knows how to put up a fight and win too... I just can't see him as being helpless or being 'abused' by anyone lol

Yeah, all those uke-style fanarts where England is tiny and moe piss me off XD. I agree with you with the kicking ass thing. If I ever want to read an England fanfic, I look out for ones where he's dominant or aggressive or whatever, because the alternative is usually whiny uke England, which I hate with a passion! XD
