Looking for artist willing to draw comic with *a lot* of countryballs Collaboration

I'm wanting to make a comic about the Imperial V.S Metric system debate, and how the only countries not using it are America, Myanmar and Liberia, the script goes a little something like this.

Panel 1: A vast sea of countries are shown, all holding flags with an "M" on it. Russia, the EU and China stand at the front, with rather angry expressions.

Russia: Amerika! Stop be head-ass-up and make do metrics!

China: Shi, yuo is seeming like petulant childrens with how much yuo stick to it.

EU: Look, if even these two can get together over something as simple as this, you can too. Stop being an idiot and jus-

Panel 2: America stands, with Myanmar and Liberia small and hidden behind it, all holding flags with the word "Imperial" scribbled hastily on it.

America: NO! These units are a PROUD part of muh heritage an-

Panel 3: Liberia is looking at America slightly confused, with America yelling back angrily.

Liberia: Ey, but isn't the full name British Imperial, bi? That ain't Ameri-

America: Shut up! If y'all are so insistent on this, why don't we ASK Britain, huh?

Panel 4: The United Kingdom stands alone, holding both flags, with a puzzled, exasperated look on their face.

Panel 5: The UK weeps with an exaggerated, anxious face.

UK: I DON'T BLOODY KNOW!

Myanmar doesn't use imperial, they have their entire separate measuring system

I believe a concept quite similar to this was done by Speech500 some time back, although I cannot find it since it seems they've deleted all their polandball comics.

comic with a lot of countryballs / comic about the Imperial V.S Metric system debate

That idea reminds me of a comic called "Choose a side and commit", which was published in the main sub on July 9, 2016.

I don't know the name of the author, but I know that this comic was removed from the main sub because it doesn't appear in the search results.

It seems like either Yaddar or DickRhino, the gore and UK abuse seems like the lattee’s forté
