Wait, will there be a httyd2 life-action remake? Is this some kind of belated April Fool's Day prank or something?
Sometimes I wonder what Astrid's name would be if her parents followed the tradition of Berk — giving children disgusting names to scare off trolls (or goblins, I don't remember)? Axegirl? Sharpthorn?... Skullcrasher?...... uh...... Asstrid?
I'm sorry, I can't make up names.
I've been struggling with the redesign for a long time, not really knowing what to add to Charlie, 'cause there are so many options! But I still realized to some extent what I wanted.
In my redesign, I wanted Charlotte to look as cute and friendly as possible, so I added pastel colors and soft silhouette shapes to her. And also my, like, headcanon, that Charlie is trying to look friendly and nice to sinners. But because she's a hell-born creature, she doesn't really understand what humans consider cute, which makes her look a little scary and uncanny.
But Valkyrie (aka Vaggie) helps her with learning how to look cute and friendly.
Disney is doing a remake of «Tangled». And it seems also «Princess and the Frog».
It's like an au where all the characters are toys. Hiccup is a rag doll, and Toothless is a plush dragon (are rag and plush toys different?). I like to imagine that Snotlout will call Hiccup a girl's toy (*wink* reference *wink*). With other characters, I'm still wondering what kind of toys they'll be.
Sketch of design of Hiccup's winter clothes.
As a resident of the cold region of my country, it just freezes me out that none of the characters wear warm clothes when it's cold. Although, according to Hiccup and shown in the tv series and the short film, they live in a very cold climate. But no one even thinks to put on a winter hat!
They have a freaking winter there, but they all wear their usual clothes. But they must catch all possible frostbite and colds!!! And Hiccup, the twins and Astrid should be shivering from the cold because of their thin physique (I'm telling you this as a thin one).
And it seems like in some official comic book their warm clothes were shown, here's Hiccup as an example, but damn, even this doesn't look like very suitable clothes for winter. So I decided to give the riders (well, their fifteen-year-old versions) winter clothes, since their parents can't. The designs are filled purely with my vision and headcannons.
In short, I think Hiccup would have dressed the warmest of the gang. Well, Stoick would have forced him to dress very warmly, believing that his weak and skinny son could easily freeze to death or the wind could easily knock him down.
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.
It was. But it doesn't really play a role in why this episode infuriated me. I don't like the fact that the fan didn't apologize to Twilight, although he should have, as I said. And it creates some kind of bad message for the kids, like, "Hey kids! You can violate someone else's space. And if that someone doesn't ask you not to do it directly, then you can continue to violate their space."
My most hated trope in mlp is that Twilight is justifiably angry at something, but she is wrong and in the end she should apologize.
Are Twilight's friends acting irresponsibly and childishly while all their friends and family suffer in slavery? Twilight is such a meany that she was the only one who was serious and tried to take at least some action to save Equestria 😡. Does her annoying fan follow her around and disrespect her personal space, although it's obvious that she's uncomfortable with it? Well, it's her own fault that she didn't say she didn't like it (it sounds very much like victim blaming), so she needs to apologize to him for yelling at him, duh 🙄.
I f#cking hate this trope so much, you can't imagine.
Sketches of Asha's and Starboy's redesigns for my au (well, or the rewrite, I don't know). I wanted Asha and Starboy to contrast with each other. Asha symbolizes the starry night sky, and Star, well, the star (it sounded more beautiful in my head). And speaking of the Starboy. I want to make him more feminine.
POV: you're Stoick (httyd1).
