I realized that those hillbilly engines from Misty Island Rescue existed so I decided to make them mascots for a Mtn. Dew-type soda called "Misty Moonshine" in my AU.
What’s a good way to get out of art block and make designs for characters you’ve been putting off? Drawing memes made by @uselessalexis165 and @capybaras-blog of course!
Monster Engines au Misty Island headcanons: The Misty Islands lads (Bash, Dash and Ferdinand) have monster bodies more akin to grizzly bears than wolves (unlike more of the engines on Sodor). As a result, they eat large fishes, coal, berries, sometimes smaller critters and of course, honey. They especially like Maple Meringues...courtesy of Y/N.
Speaking of Y/N, the lads enjoys their reputations as scary beasts and like to put on a show of fright when unlucky visitors comes by Misty Island. They are genuinely puzzled when Y/N is not spooked at all by them...Until Thomas comes out of his hiding place.
''Aw, no fair, Thomas! You should have told us they knew monsters!''
''Worth it! 😁''
Edward is at first not very warm towards them. He finds them too rambuctious. But Y/N gets along with them well and loves to play with them.
Y/N invented a game with Bash and Dash: They will sing a song to the tune of the conga line song and after the first verses, Y/N gets to tell them what to sing next. For example:
(When Bash and Dash learns that Y/N has a sweetheart:
Bash and Dash: Y/N got a sweetheart! Y/N got a sweetheart! Y/N got a sweetheart! Y/N got a sweetheart!
Y/N: (As they see Edward and James approaching) There comes the two lovebirds! There comes the two lovebirds!
Bash and Dash: There comes the two lovebirds! There comes the two lovebirds!
Also I wanna say for the Locos' designs I humbly suggest the classic "overalls and Nothing Else"
Ferdinand maybe gets a straw hat
Thomas is thoroughly confused as to how these dipshits are going barefoot everywhere when some of these plants have thorns
(wip) ferdinand's design + colors coming soon in approximately 2 business days. can't believe these hillbillies saved casa tidmouth from ending prematurely
Since I don't really get all the hate about logging locos moreover I myself just LOVE them
Here's my small list of headcanons about them 🌹(that's quite related to my human au (one and only ttte au that I have) so yeah they're humanized)
• Bash and Dash are both aroace and Ferdinand is achillean
• When Ferdinand goes out for the work he ALWAYS comes back with his pockets full of pinecones
• When it comes to differences between Bash and Dash - they are completely different. It is not only about their appearance but also about their personalities. While Bash is quite calmer, Dash is more open and energetic especially when it comes to interacting with other creatures. And it affected their life on Sodor, too. Bash had to deal with some difficulties for the first time, but passed through it (with the help of his brother and friends)
• Ferdinand himself may be plain and silly and funny and frumpy... but he's that type of character that always seem to make almost everyone around to like him. It's sort of magic.
• While they were at the Steamworks, Bash and Dash really got along with Kevin. They told him a lot of stories about their life on the Misty Island and in the Mainland.
I am a 2002 baby, 2000s baby and kid, and a 2010s kid. During the early 2000s, I fell in love with a series called Thomas the Tank Engine. When I watched "Hero of the Rails", I feel in love with the cgi version. Today, I still have a love for the TTTE series.
I am seeking people who would be interested in doing a TTTE roleplay. As I will only be roleplaying as human OC (who is not part of universe), you are welcome to roleplay any and all canon characters.
I would love to explore the interactions and relationships between the humans and trains and other sentient vehicles more.
Roleplaying
I can do semi, literate, and novella. Though I make an effort to do novella more.
Correct punctuation, grammar, and spelling are important. If you are in need of help of one more of these things, I will assist you.
I require communication, and would like to have (a) partner(s) that truly engage and share in the creation of roleplay. Some to fangirl/fan boy/fan with, talk about aesthetics/pinboards, have detailed roleplay planning and world building, analysis, and more.
Details are something I greatly enjoy, so you are welcome to take all the time you need, and will help.
I would like to include hurt/comfort, angst, action, adventure, dark and disturbing themes and tropes. Imagine if the show had a different target audience, or think about if they were real.
If you are interested, message me on tumblr with a link to my roleplay post and we will continue from there.
