Too skinny, not angry enough, to dumb to even use a sword coupled with the obsession many Americans have with guns. Anything for America to be pride of has long since been lost, nothing noble about America right now. With a history of oppression, exploitation, capitalism and consumerism on the backs of every day citizens. Especially after the debacle of our last president, his narcissism and immaturity, in trying and failing to rig the election in his favor. Where the only accurate details is perhaps America looking young and naïve. At least if representing everyday Americans who don't realize how badly they are being manipulated, deceived, and controlled by their government, politicians, and corporations.

All the people that are angry about SJW’s make me kinda sad.. this is literally a country founded on shockingly liberal ideas (for the time) and also a country of immigrants.. like, there’s a reason the US was thought of as forward-thinking. Anyway, I think the young face is really cool, especially because that combined with the torso area & cape (not sure what it’s called but y’all get the gist) sorta makes a picture of that idealistic revolutionary, and yeah I may be thinking personally here, but that seems to be the good heart of America. Also, the boots? appropriation (what we did to mexico when we were manifesting our destiny? ouch), check. ‘murica, check. Kinda out-of-place, kinda flashy, and that’s a pretty accurate bit of us right there. Also, I was both bracing for and looking forward to this and although it wasn’t what I expected, I really like this picture of us. It’s less political than I thought, and it just strikes me as really sweet. The artist here did really well. 💛

I agree. The first few designs were so creative with the colors and props but still stayed true to the flag. Afterward, the designs just became robes/armor with the flag stamped on them, along with a pretty plain weapon. I just think that the designs themselves had so much more potential (e.g. turning India's wheel into a shield, giving Singapore a weapon based off the moon on his flag, etc).

4points

Fixin'Ta 5 years ago (edited)

Maybe. But almost EVERY country that hosts the Olympics seems to do some take on the attending countries' traditional outfits. I like that Japan went for something different and decided to do styles based on Japanese traditional clothing. Now, that does make it a little harder to be entirely original for each one, and you do get some monotony, but at least they're attempting to NOT be like every other country who hosts the Olympics. EDITED: I just realized these are not official illustrations, just a group of artists' work. I'm really disappointed. They're so cool they totally should be official.

3points

Alexander Fretheim 5 years ago (edited)

I partially agree. I think the basic style of the clothing should say something about the country. Traditional can be a good way of doing that sometimes, and in particular I think America and Brazil as cowboys would have been better, but for instance I actually thought Canada's worked perfectly and so did Germany's even though both were in more of a Japanese anime style, and although Argentina has never had knights, I think the Argentinian one as a knight would have reflected something beautiful about Argentina's culture. It's worth noting too that not all countries really HAVE a traditional dress - South Africa is in such severe flux right now that you can't really describe ANYTHING as a South African tradition, and Indonesia is a patch work of different ethnic groups and cultures with basically nothing in common that were hastily stitched together to hunt pirates. Overall, I think these were a little too formulaic and could have done with some bolder and more expressive choices.

Anime might be Japanese, but you have drawn every country’s rep as Their culture; not our own. There is nothing Japanese about my ancestral culture. — You are a good artist, for how you have shown the way you wish to represent each country. Samurai is very much “your” forte. Unless it is traditional with anime portrayals, perhaps you could balance the size ratios of the feet and heads with the body sizes.

1st - they're not white. Those are pallets of combinations of brown, red, yellow and other colours to help you give the impression they're alive and human. 2nd - they are not "skinned", don't be so gore. O_o (I know you meant to make an adjective from "skin", many do so, but see, it sounds very ugly. Sincerely, a linguistics major.) 3rd - in anime there is not an "always" looking this or that way. The industry is too big for only one stereotype. The stereotypes themselves are so numerous they became, ironically, very various, and additionally there are just as many artists with unique styles and amongst these there are artists whose styles get so well accepted they create new stereotypes.
