It's Maslenitsa tomorrow! So I wanted to make some folk outfits for Performance troupe. But I couldn't think of perf's and stagehand's costumes. (read as: I wanted to play dress up with my fav chars then got bored at school and drew musician too)
Get a rest and eat blini tmrw✌️
🥞 Happy Maslenitsa everyone 🥞
In honor of the holiday, I present you with the new artwork for the series of "RWBY characters in Slavic folk costumes", sponsored by @carn-project.
The week of Maslenitsa has just started! It's a delicious Eastern Slavic folk holiday, especially famous for blini, syrniki, and the burning of the Lady Maslenitsa's effigy on Sunday.
Adam is wearing a Belarusian costume. And look, the ornaments have even moved to his mask! He's holding a mug of kvass, a traditional Slavic low-alcoholic beverage made of rye bread.
And Cinder has a very unique outfit – the traditional costume of Bistra, the region of Croatia. I managed to find this outfit while looking for an interesting winter version of the Croatian costume. The ornament on the eye patch is the red checkerboard, one of Croatia's national symbols.
Croats don't celebrate Maslenitsa, but they have a similar holiday called fašnik or poklade.
As always with this series, I want to focus on the friendship of nations and the appreciation of each culture. ❗ Please don't try to see any hidden meaning or message here because I'm drawing RWBY antagonists, ok? Consider them actors playing their roles, and do not associate any crimes from the series with the country in whose costume the characters are dressed.
