Thinking about things that are popular interpretations but not really ‘canon’, Amestris is not ‘literally Germany’ and trying to parallel everything only with Germany or critiquing it on the basis of how good it represents (historic) Germany comes off as.... tunnel vision, in my opinion. Even in 03 were they actually interact with Germans, Amestris is still it’s own country with a different history. It’s another country in another universe, not a parallel version of a real one.

Yes Amestris has European aesthetics as inspiration, that does include Germany too. Yes Arakawa researched early 1900s and WW2 era political situations around the world, including Germany. But also, in a large part Japans history and politics which she has talked about in interviews.

Even on the European aesthetics of Amestris. It has a more broad inspiration too. They canonically speak English, they have London style telephone booths, their military wears blue uniforms like France in ww1. Their military has an American ranking system (at least some of the Dutch military ranks don’t have an english translation so ranking is not always universal). A large part of Amestris is covered by desert and (bryce) mesa/badland biomes or open grasslands. They are land-locked. Despite it being 1914 they dress in modern western clothes. The population is multi ethnic. The life-action movie was filmed in Italy (iirc). The Armstrongs being an old noble family implies a past monarchy. Go wild!

I saw that people were liking this drawing that I made a long time ago, and I thought I’d redo it because I didn’t like how it looked. I still don’t really like how this one turned out but I feel like the composition is an improvement at least!

Hawkeye moves to Central as part of Colonel Mustang's entourage. Someone who is already (in)famous there for being an unserious manwhore, who would rather spend his time flirting with the female staff and procrastinating than work for the position he only got for being an alchemist and does not deserve. They definitely have rumours floating around about him and Hawkeye.

Then, within weeks of arriving, Hawkeye is transferred to Bradley's office. To his private office as his personal assistant. Being that close to the leader of their country is a significant and high-status position. Most people in Amestris regard Bradley positively, so it should be a great honour to be there. But Hawkeye did not do anything to deserve that place. She did not even get promoted for it, remaining just a first lieutenant.

No wonder Rebecca accused her of sleeping her way to the top lmaaaoo. She is probably definitely not the only one who thinks she's Bradley's new mistress. I wonder what his wife thinks lol.

today is my boit'day birthday :)

youve asked this at such a good time because i had just had a harper design explanation idea and i wasnt sure if i should make it or not:

it's come to my attention that I do not in fact remember what kosm is supposed to look like, because it isn't this. but also it's cosmic horror so maybe I can do what I want to visualise the indescribable, my source is It Came To Me In A Dream, etc. etc.
