Oh my freaking God I finally finished these guys! These four men are in my head for a while since my mom went to Germany. I like you to meet the air boys, Adler, ernold, ezio, and kihêw! I’m happy how they came out two different jets, one plane and one helicopter! And if you’re wondering why they look so different than the other cars trains diesels even boats is because for flying types like them they like flying around like birds, so they mostly half hybrids anytime a bird or cyborg mixture of half animal, half side work! And if you’re wondering, who is the leader of them, it would be Ernold or kihêw it’s because one has kind of habit experience, and the other does have a lot of experience! Welcome to Sunnyside Island sky boys fly around as you please and help others
PS if you didn’t notice all their names mean eagle lol
