Welp, I was supposed to work on a USUK pic I've been thinking of, but instead I decided to draw the Spamano pic that's been floating around in my head for a while.
So yeah, some sort of Renaissance masquerade thing. As you can see, this doesn't take place during the actual Renaissance, since Romano's not Chibiromano in this. Unless he hit a massive growth spurt, I dunno.
Clothing reference came from this picture:

I gotta say... drawing something while looking at Higuri-san's work is very... depressing? Intimidating? X_X It's like you're trying to recreate the universe and God's standing behind you like "Oh, don't mind me, I'm just watching and JUDGING YOU"
And she does that all by hand, too. With actual airbrushes. /sigh
One day I'll be that great, I hope.
Anywho, Romano's head is weird. D: I dunno why, it just is. And his outfit... obviously it came from a woman's outfit, and I just MANRY-fied it. Can I even do that? I can now, I guess.
Spain's mask also came from a Higuri drawing, except the one here is simplified by 1000. Romano's mask is something I pulled out of my ass, and it looks like the Phantom of the Opera at a gay club.
Also, BACKGROUND? IN
MY PIKTUR?
Oh my.
By the way,have you seen the Romano Funimation DUB clip on youtube? XD
Yeah, ages ago. xD It started the greatest wank in Hetalia history, but it seems to have died down a bit.
