For each of these images I wanted to create a sort of physical embodiment of each nation (an allegory, if you will). In their outfits I tried to replicate as closely as possible not only a traditional costume from their countries, but also the colors and patterns of the national flags.

If this looks similar to the outfits on the Scandinavian pieces, it's because the Viking Maker program is designed to create sexy female viking warriors, and this was the only outfit (as far as I could tell) that had any semblance of historical accuracy to what a woman from those regions would actually wear on a regular basis.

I love your concept here. Were you by any chance sort of inspired by Hetalia? Anyways, this is cool. I like your designs with this whole series!

I don't really know anything about Hetalia, but to be totally honest I was never as enchanted with that whole "anime-esque" (if you'll pardon the expression) style of art and media as some of my contemporaries were (one of the major fads when I was in high school). Unless it's relevant to the content at hand, I try to keep styles like that in their proper places.

I'm glad you enjoy the series and feel free to view all of them .

I was only referring to the concept (countries as people) and not the art style. To tell the truth, none of my characters are in the anime style, but a lot of people who do them for me do use that style.

Anyways, still, nice picture.

Thank you. I tried to make the expressions on all my Scandinavian pieces slightly different from each other.
