[Fanarts] America + Canada

Title: Follow Me as Children, Growing up, Magnet, Pancakes and Hamburgers,Eat it Darmmit.
Author/Artist: Mikokume Raie
Character(s) or Pairing(s): America, Canada, USCan for one and the rest if you wanna see it as such.
Rating: PG (Most likely...)
Warnings: None I think.
Summary: I have returned from my crusade of making more USCan (or just America + Canada pictures) with 5 pictures!

Previous Fanart postings: 1 2 3 4 5

DA link - Follow me as Children


DA link - Growing Up
Soo... the "progress" of America and Canada in all their "phases" of growing up! IT'S CHOCKFULL OF SYMBOLISM AND STUFF. My DA page has more explainations (and my rant) for it but the gist of it is:
Colonies together first, grew up just a bit too their "teen" years but America is always looking ahead (and I know cowboy suits prolly didn't exist then buttt it's his "teen" outfit so I am like WHATEVES), then American Revolution + War of 1812 happens and America is rushing ahead and leaving Canada behind who is still a British colony, then Canada is alone (aww) and at the end, America comes back to help Canada up. Notice Kumajirou growing up with Canada!
And I prolly drew/colour the uniforms wrong but I DON'T CARE - I only care for the point to get across!
THIS IS WHY I LOVE America/Canada SO MUCH. But I so sad that not a lot of people see it T__T. Blarg...


DA link - Magnet
Inspired by the Magnet song and because I felt like it! MANLY NAILPOLISH that's right, nailpolish is TOTALLY MANLY! XDD. They are not wearing glasses because I can't draw and colour sideview glasses well and I am just going to say they're wearing contacts >.>...

The remaining two pictures were done for this FUNimation Hetalia Fan Cards Campaign thingy that someone suggested I should do(they thought I was American ahaha) and that I am totally not sure if Canadians could enter as well as I don't even know if they accept like.. printed digital pictures because like... how do they know that it is MY artwork and not ripped off someone else's and printed? BUT ALWELL, IT WAS FUN DOING THEM ANYWAYS.


DA link - Pancakes and Hamburgers
This is actually two in one (Canada is one and America is another)


DA Link - Eat it Darmmit
Because I had no other idea but I wanted to do three because THREE IS AN AWESOME NUMBER.

These pictures were all done (100% digital - except the first picture which I drew a sketch on paper first) in photoshop + use of my oh so loveable tablet (but I terribly mutilated the nibs). Turns out, I colour better on Photoshop than on Sai Paint Tool, go figure XD. BEST STICK TO PROGRAMS I KNOW BETTER.

Alwell, that is all (for now prolly) AND I SHALL GO BACK TO THE HOLE THAT I CRAWLED OUT FROM. Thank you for looking~~! (and your comments should you leave any.)


I have said it once and I shall say it again: NEED. MORE. USCAN. Or... you know, just Canada in general >.>...

This post is full of win and maple.

I love your style! These are all so pretty, especially the Magnet one. <3 *has a very soft spot for Hetalia-Magnet crossovers*

Tis beautious!! You draw very nicely and the color and background are really cool-looking!

USCAN deserves so much more love. You are right

This was just oodles of awesomeness and heartwarming. My favourite one has to the progress of Canada and America's relationship. Me being me, I love symbolism and I think you did an amazing job portraying it.
