Hello! This video is very old; I made it when I was 15. There are many historical inaccuracies, and some things that may be unintentionally offensive or outright incorrect. 15 year old me meant well, and had I made this video today, certain things would be more accurate and handled differently! In any case, thank you all for watching over the years and giving love to a passion project I had made in high school.
Each frame of this video was drawn by hand on individual pieces of paper, with inclusions of mixed media and video footage. I worked on it between classes, IN classes, and in my free time. Though the outdated art looks like a bit juvenile to myself now, I believe the love and effort I crafted this video with still shines through... YOU can draw, YOU can create! You don't even need a proper art program or expensive editing tools. The effort and love you dedicate to your work is invaluable above all else. YOU can create. You SHOULD create. I'm so glad this old autism-driven passion art project I made in freshmen year is still inspiring creatives online. In a world where the current state of AI is poisoning creativity, discouraging artists, and stealing opportunities, I hope this silly video proves to you that there is something AI can NEVER take from you. Something deep in your soul, in the hand you draw with, in the mind you write with, in the heart you create with. Go exercise that.
Go draw.
Additionally, I call for a FREE Palestine 🇵🇸! Free them from the genocide being comitted upon them.

ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
These are characters from the early 2000's anime Hetalia, and fanmade characters for the series I had found online.
This project was started on December 8th, 2021 and finished at 5 pm on January 16th, 2022. The final stack of papers is about as tall as a can of Coke!

I also liked that you didn’t draw anything too unsettling or uncomfortable. It’s very mature of you.
This is beautiful!!
