12th August, 1759. Aftermath of the battle of Kunersdorf.

aka, Austria, Russia, and Prussia should be the real Bad trio (because everything about it is awful, and yet wonderful)
aka I just wanted to draw Ivan call Gilbert a cockroach

aka have you ever drawn something and one panel in already realize that you have made a grave mistake

Prussia keeps the beat with his foot while Germany feels mostly inadequate

I was real lazy about this one, oops

tfw you almost get ur ~~weird family pet~~ nation killed

Not pictured: Fritz making some shit comment about Gil crying like “so u recovered from ur childish lil fit”; Gilbert almost punching him in the eye (but not doing it because he knows Fritz, and he knows he is just an ass & makes dumb unnecessary comments, and loves him anyway)

Anyway, I watched a documentary on my train ride back home, and it mentioned how the Seven Years war put some really heavy strain on the entire Prussian population so
have a moment of weakness from Gilbert

Gilbert is thinking to himself that this wouldn’t have happened to his East German team!!!!!

Which is a shame because it’s among my favorites ;o;

You can read the story here
The illustration is for the last chapter, Prussian Blues

Since we were talking 1920s, here’s a stylish Gilbert.

Bonjour everyone, it’s time for my claim for @aphabriefhistoryoftime! My claim was the German revolution 1848/1849, and instead of focusing solely on the bloodshed that came with it, I wanted to portray Prussia’s personal struggle some more and the hopes projected on him – which he would go on to not just disappoint but crush. So slightly more “abstract” approach that I took here.

The historic background is that in 1848, many German states had their own revolutions, including Prussia, in which the German people demanded a unified Germany. Chiefly among them was Baden which held out the longest with democratic demands alongside the national ones, but others were quite accepting of constitutional monarchy and looked towards Prussia as the leading force of this ‘Germany’. And for a moment it looked as though it could work–

but Prussia went back on concessions made towards its population and brutally beat back revolutions. Baden had to surrender in order to prevent a massacre at the hands of the Prussian military.

Baden’s design (the lady holding back Ludwig) is by @ask-baden, thank you so much as always for letting me use her design for this!

Weirdly tedious to draw and messy visualization of a thought I’ve been having and posted about on another blog:

Friedrich the ~~Gay~~ Great should just have the hots for no other than Francois Bonnefoy, the most beautiful man who ever lived. Gilbert as Friedrich’s kingdom and friend/watchdog is just done with him. Anyone else who can take the crown? Literally anyone else? Please?
