Another redraw. For some reason I am not happy with how it looks. Not the art itself, but the effect. I always apply noise and a blur filter over the art to it looks more old-ish. But for this one it didn't turn out very good for some reason. Well... next time. Probably have to update the method a bit to make it better... Anyone who wants to compare this to Cartoon Network in the early 2010s, yes. It is my biggest inspiration

As always, more to come... I plan on posting my colony/native tribe characters after this, so stay tuned for that

Happy 250th America 🇺🇸 🎆 In honor of this, I drew Hetalia America with Liberty Kids George Washington. I need history fandom people to talk to badly... anyway!

In honor of 250, I included my own characters. They're personified US colonies: Providence Plantations (Rhode Island), Massachusetts Bay II, and North/South Carolina. Uhh the outfits I don't think are perfectly historically accurate, but I will get there at some point. I hope you like them. I'll make more of them later on.

I'll get into the details about them at some point. But here is just a general introduction:

Providence Plantations: "Rhode Island" is a different character (Aquidneck) as that is the actual name of "Rhode Island." Providence Plantations is the name of the colony established on the mainland in the Narragansett territory. They are two different characters. I will introduce Aquidneck later on

Massachusetts Bay II: There are more than one iteration of colony/state/tribe. This is the second Massachusetts after the first one dies after the Salem Witch Trials

North/South Carolina: They are both identical twins (of course), but do have their separate quirks. North Carolina speaks less due to his stutter and South Carolina is more outwardly arrogant lol.

As always, more to come. I'll be glad to share my characters here. Its about time I posted something colonial history related

Pirate England here. I do really prefer flat coloring over anything with shading/lighting, but I thought it would be fitting for this. I am also experimenting a bit with his face being sharper as opposed to rounder. I do like him with the rounder face, but the sharper face I think captures his personality better for drawings like this, so idk lol. Maybe I will just keep the angles for detailed head-shots.

For comparison, if you want to see what I mean, here is another one with the angles, and here is one where its rounder. I like both honestly, but perhaps I will spare angles for more detailed stuff. I seriously need to make character sheets for consistency, because as you can see, this drawing is sort of a mixture of elements in both... it's fine for what it is, but I do want to keep things consistent. He's going through a phase...

Anyway, as usual, more to come.

"House you can't just turn us into a stock image meme!!"

"Too late, Wilson."

Honestly, in terms of my AU lore, somehow House could actually do this. Also because of 4th wall breaks in my comics and such. This House comic is an example. Gives you a tiny insight into the lore there. Oh, and I made the roses sparkly because the art was lacking something...

As always, more to come.

I had no idea what to draw, so here is an England reaction image. Feel free to use it. My signature is in it, so I don't mind. I should do more of em.

Tried to be a little more detailed with this one to capture the full essence of the original. Normally I just color flats because I don't care for shading or lighting, but this was simple enough. Also the style is a bit more mature looking than usual. Again, all for the sake of conveying a specific emotion properly. If you look at this comic, America's face is the same to drive home the "vibe" he is giving off. And this one here is a comparison of what they usually look like front-on. Expressions were exaggerated, so I didn't feel the need to detail them more than usual...

Anyway... as usual, enjoy.

A picture can say a thousand words, or something. But do three pictures say three thousand words...?

This is how they met in my game. I have a bunch of screenshots from this game that I want to make into redraws. I found this one funny because it unfolds a whole story in three images and I think it works for these two wayyy too well.

As always, enjoy. More to come

After a month, I have returned. I got a back injury early last month and soon after had to study for finals. Now I can finally do art again... Enjoy another meme redraw with France and England. Someone probably has done this already, but I'm rarely on the web for long, so I wouldn't know.

As always, more to come now that I am not in constant crippling pain and overwhelmed with class work.

Dr. House visits the White House! It's these three again... I wanted to do a mock screencap set as if it were actually a cartoon. Someday I would love to animate these, but for now, comics are the best choice. The idea was inspired by this tweet.

More Hetalia America stuff is here and more Dr. House stuff is here if you wanna check those out. A larger comic with all 3 of these guys is here if you wanna delve into the lore of this cross over AU.

I think I will do AU character intros at some point. We will see... I have to do more comics with more characters beforehand to have references to look back on. Anyway, enjoy

[protestantpirate]

Pinterest gives me some good fuel for stupid art ideas.

Enjoy. As always, more to come

Side Note: I love drawing England's eyebrows. Big fan of the monster ones.

The President's Request - Part 1

Part 1 is finished! We're getting into the AU lore now... Valentine has requested Dr. House's help with something he is deeply curious about. What will House and Valentine discover in part 2? More to come...

This AU still needs a title, so I am working on that. "Cross-over Chaos" is used by Cartoon Network, but maybe I can work around that. Anyway, Part 2 will be postponed. I want to take a break from the full blown comics and work on some art or simple skits.

I uploaded a shorter version a few days ago but I took it down because it was awkward and too short. So if you see that floating around that's why.

As always, enjoy the comic

[protestantpirate]

good LORD your comics are HILARIOUS IM GIGGLING SO HARD RN

Hey thanks! I'm glad you like em. I have another one I'm working on currently that will be a 2 part comic, as well as a WIP for a screencap redraw and some head shot sketches I intend to post when they're lined and colored.

Here is a sneak peak of the upcoming part 1 comic. I would show more but I don't want to spoil, haha. I will say it is a 3x cross over (so 3 franchises)

And here are those WIPs I mentioned earlier.

Anyway, thanks reading my work. I hope you stick around to see more!

[protestantpirate]

America, Italy, and Japan* screencap redraw this time. I have no idea where this is from. My entire supply comes from Pinterest. Maybe the movie, though I never watched it. I heard it sucked? Can't say... The dart board was cramping my style (literally) so I omitted it from my drawing.

First time drawing Italy and Japan. Japan looked like a freak when I colored in his eyes white. I have to make certain decisions about their features when I translate them into my style, and the white was practically illegal with how awful it looked. I'll draw some other characters soon

House is an analog horror enthusiast it seems!

While making my last comic with a bit of analog horror, I got this idea of Wilson yelling at House about releasing eldritch horrors in the hospital and this is what came of it. Dr. House is now a part of my cross over AU that I have to rename because "Cross-over Chaos" is already used by Cartoon Network. Aren't I creative...

AU head canon: House loves analog horror

Note: I do not take any of these head canons seriously at all. They're just for goofs and laughs. As I post more you will see some pretty stupid ones. All for fun

[protestantpirate]

I wanted to redraw this screencap but with an eldritch-like horror being. Struggled with that because I am terrible at designing those. Then Gabriel came to mind. Who better than Gabriel? No one. I also ended up extending this into a comic because I saw this situation vividly in my head and had to bring it to life. SO in the end, more cross over stuff. This was inevitable, I think.

[protestantpirate]

The Doctor is in the House. This idea randomly dawned on me yesterday. Big fan of goofy cross-overs.

[protestantpirate]

Moments before disaster... Austria is about to hear the news about Archduke Ferdinand...! Another redraw. Probably the only thing I will actually do regarding Hetalia because I really like doing it.

[protestantpirate]

Redraw with the four of them. This is older art. Around summer of 2025. The style has updated quite a bit. Last post is recent for an example.
