Fan Art: Siblings in Arms
Brother Slovakia and Sister Slovakia dressed as partisans of Slovak National Uprising during WWII, standing next to armored train Zvolen.
Okay now, their costumes are not 100% based on reality, just on rough descriptions and small B&W pictures and my own imagination. Before you ask why is brother Slovakia's bandana a Russian flag, then I must inform you it was actually the flag of Tiso's fascist Slovak State before. He ripped it off a pole, put on his face, and covered his eye he lost in combat with a slovak emblem eyepatch to form the today's Slovak Flag. As for sister Slovakia, she is a pilot of Slovak Insurgent Air Force (okay I guess they didn't have any female pilots but she looks cool like that) She's got the logo of the Insurgent Air Force on the bottom of the shirt. It was actually a mixture of Czechoslovak Air Force logo and Slovak National Emblem. Oh and as for the train, I've originally wanted to upload this picture without any background, but I accidentally ran into the picture of this badass thing, so I just had to put it there. And yes, it was being used during the Uprising. (P.S.: Dunno if today's Slovak Republic flag has been ever used back then, but I decided to put it in anyways.)
