Honestly, I didn't really like what I did. Maybe next time I'll try to redesign her.
That's how big she is btw.
I drew this a long time ago, about a year ago, probably. I suddenly remembered about this art and felt that the world should see it.
Edit: why is it getting so much attention?
WARNING: A loud scream at the end.
Oh, there's so much about the life-action movie we've been having lately. First, the leaked frame with Toothless and Hiccup, then the first trailer (which I'll talk about much later), and now this photo from the filming, where we can see the local Astrid and Snotlout, which I'm going to talk about.
Astrid, for starters. I actually really like her design from her hairstyle to her armor. Yes, it doesn't look much like the design from the original movie, but damn, the new design is still very good. I don't even have the words to say how much I like it.
And also the armor design looks like something in between Hiccup's armor and Astrid's clothes from the second movie. I'm not the only one who sees the resemblance, right?
Among the disadvantages of Astrid's life-action image, I can note the absence of small skulls and spikes on clothes. Like, these are important details of her image, which well showed her sharp and belligerent nature. And the fact that they are not there makes me kinda sad. And this is purely a matter of taste, but I would like her to have a blue shirt, not a red one (I never liked her red shirt).
And now about Snotlout. I don't even know what to say about him. His clothing design is kinda meh. There is no hatred for the actor, but, as for me, he is too thin and small for the role of a big dumb bully. Like, I don't believe that this cute guy can bully other people, especially because of their physical strength and small build.
Like, in the original, Snotlout was such a standard of appearance and behavior of the Vikings of the Berk. Big and strong, and because of it, it doesn't matter that he's dumb. And his design emphasized this well.
And here... Meh.
In fact, he looks more like 16 years old Gustav than Snotlout.
Drew quick sketch with Hiccup in a dress, just cuz. Maybe I'll draw other riders in dresses.
I drew this March 8th postcard for my mom. She asked for a postcard with a dragon on it.
A tiny redesign of Octavia.
I don't mind her original design, except that she dresses too loosely for, well, a princess whose mother is concerned about what others might think, and, probably, that she looks like an almost identical copy of Stolass. I didn't work too hard on her redesign, I just put Via in a simple dress and tried to make her a mix of both her parents, not just her father.
Maybe in the future I'll try to do a more complete redesign.
I don't have any problems with the design of Cadence, except, probably, how casual and relaxed her hairstyle looks (yeah, Tia and Luna also have loose hair, but Idk, since their hair is fluttering, I don't have a similar issue with them).
