Precursors usually aren't seen with tentacles. *stares* It must be a fetish you have. A version of tentacle hentai. Hmm. *writes something down in a notepad*

Dude, they aren't even shown to have actually bodies.

Just one of my Precursors is a magical tentacle girl in appearance...and that stuff is mostly because Precursors love Jellyfish for some reason.

I have been thinking about what my national attire should be. I have decided to go with a kolpak or kuczma (a high-crowned fur cap), kontusz (a long robe with split sleeves), zupan (a long garment worn under the kontusz), pas kontuszowy (a wide silk sash), sharovary (poofy pants), tarsoly (a horseman's flat leather bag similar to a sabretache), and a szabla (a type of Polish saber) with a thumb ring on the hilt in the style of the 17th century.

The world hasn't been mixed just enough as for me to obtain a singular national attire.

Actually, what inspired me is clothing from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and also the Ukrainian Cossacks in the 16th-17th centuries. Here are some pictures that are more historical in nature.

No, that is just gross. I was thinking of something like these instead.

I still don't understand why a disproportionate amount of the drawings on deviantart are in an anime or manga style (unfortunately, most of those that aren't seem to be of ponies), but these are the sort of outfits that I had in mind.

Because it is overrated past the brim? I don't know,, the amount of "weeabos" died down over the years, I think.

At least it isn't as annoying as modern Cartoon network crossovers with something, or pony crossovers with things I like.

I have no real right to complain, but it does drown everything I want to look for.

I've tried to draw like that and I found it to be extraordinarily difficult. I have no idea how anyone is able to animate it. I like the look of that style, but I can't seem to figure out how to draw it. I also think that it does not really fit the culture of my nation (Central/ Eastern Europe circa early 20th century and primarily influenced by American and European works of fiction, some of which are actually from the time period in question but others which were retroactively set during that time).

What keywords did you use to find those pictures? It's not too related to my II stuff, but a lot of the countries in my P2TM RP have an old European sense of style.

The word that I put in the search box on deviantart was "kroj", which is the term for traditional/ folk attire from the Czech Republic and Slovakia. For the earlier pictures, I searched google images for "szlachta", who were the nobility in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
