First, let’s make this clear: I did not make any of these up. They are all old national personifications of countries that I just re-drew.
I wanted to see what they looked like next to each other.
From left to right: Lady of the Mountains (Iceland) Ola Nordmann (Norway) Holger the Dane (Denmark) Mother Svea (Sweden) Finnish Maiden (Finland) Adelita (Mexico) Uncle Sam (USA) Mother Canada (Canada) Jock Tamson (Scotland) Kathleen Ni Houlihan (Ireland) John Bull (England) Dame Wales (Wales)
I tried to give them individual personalities as I see them from their pictures.

This is really quite interesting. I love the outfits, and the way you drew the people representing each country. Lovely poses. And... I will always love your style!
brave?
