I haven't posted much art lately. So here's a test concept for a more anthomorphic looking dragon design for Thomas! Design notes below the cut!
For a while, I wasn't sure if I wanted to characters to walk on all fours or two legs. So I decided to see what it would look like with two. I was strongly inspired by old Disney animation and Don Bluth films for this concept. I have to say I really like it! I might have the characters alternate between four and two legs, depending on what the situation calls for. I also have a design for Diesel 10 AND Lady in the works!
Anyways, hope you all like it. I was a little shy about posting it. It's not final or anything.馃槄
(Tagging @hkpika07 cus they said they liked this au. Hi!鈽猴笍馃憢)
I need D10 and Lady to have a crazy ass fight ok. I need violence between them I need them to be and unfair and I need them to BOTH be in the wrong and suffer the consequences of what they have reaped upon themselves after hiding it for years and years and years and the reasons why they did it are so fucked up and yet you can see why they did what they did you know.
"She deserved it" D-10 <- extremely insecure and takes out his bottled up anger on those who have better lives than him or those who he thinks are lesser than him due to undressed mental problems and does not confront what he has done because he fully believes he has the right even though he really doesn't because none cared and they never ever cared about his class they never did. To have your name stripped and everything you know taken away from you is an anger that cannot be fathomed. And while she may have done irreparable things she never held violence upon you. Your anger is justified but you took it to far and now you're fearful and it only makes it worse for everyone of class type. You have failed your brothers and your sisters and you know it is your fault but they don't know that. They don't know anything. As long as you don't get caught your fine. Your safe and your fine. If you get caught you are dead.
"I was defending myself I didn't mean to get out of hand" Lady <- not lying about but you almost killed him when he begged you to stop and found some sick twisted enjoyment in it and the guilt is eating away at you so heavily that you hide like a coward and do not confront what you have done because you know it will make you look bad and your saving face so you don't get thrown in the scrapyard with the rest of them you couldn't save because you were to busy relishing in the attention that came with being worshipped like a god. and now all you feel is regret and you know nothing will make this right and so you try to wipe away anyone and anything to uphold your reputation and if it means putting fear into those so they stay silent you will do it even if you have to bear the guilt because anything is better than getting caught. Anything is better than not being worshipped anymore.
And in the end all both you have is each other because you both dug your shared grave without realizing it and now that the tarp has been revealed there is no going back to once was and nothing can justify what you have done in the name of your own reputations survival
Anyways the make me CRAZZY!!! literally mental you should follow me for more crazy posting
Ver. 1: this one is based on concept art. There Lady sports bright pink paint with a gold rooftop. I think is makes her look like a toy, and it fits in with the classic 7. I also think it can be a funny invert of Rosie's redesign.
Ver. 2: lately I've been really obsessed with the idea of blue Lady. Not just for subverting gender trope but also symbolic of her relationship with the Conductor family and Lily's plush. I'd like to think after being reinstated she decided to experiment more, including trying different colors. She happened to like royal blue and it became her main ever since! And it just looks so elegant on her.
Normal Thomas fans: Yeah Misty Island Rescue and TATMR just don't exist in my AU, they make absolutely no sense so I just ignore them.
Me: Misty Island is real but it's in the Bermuda Triangle and Ferdinand is a cannibal while Bash and Dash are Homunculi. Diesel 10 is not only real but he has a clone and Lady is an eldritch horror. This still makes more sense than the original films.
Finally finished Diesel 10's dragon design! I was heavily inspired by classic Disney villains and the work of Don Bluth. Close ups and lore below the cut!
In this story, he's known as the evil shadow spirit Lord Draavil! His powers include controlling and stealing shadows, and doing necromancy. As Lady Arcana's nemesis, Lord Draavil is feared by all dragons. He was defeated by Lady Arcana thousands of years ago, losing his arm in the process, and was imprisoned in the earth for thousands of years. Until being awoken by Darius, (aka Diesel馃槈) a cunning Shadow Sorcerer, who becomes his right hand man and messager. Now equipped with a mechanical arm, Lord Draavil is ready for his conquest of all Dragon Lands, and the lands beyond! Including the human world...
can't it even be more obvious thomas. why are you surprised that a sudrian historical site filled to the brim with armor and weaponry that dates back to the middle ages has old people afflicted with the gold dust working around the castle
