I want to see The hood making anti IR propaganda just like lex

"A narcissistic family putting other at risk for their own glory!"

@hatsnothoods thought of u when making this

Good eye! I knew they seemed too specific to be random, but had no clue!

Thunderbirds Rewatch Thoughts - Impact

One for the gif makers amongst us... anyone else noticed that the sections of TB5 are coloured representing the rest of the Tracy family?

In the opening of Impact you see a clearly purple section for Grandma, a clearly green section for Virgil, and a clearly yellow section for Gordon. There's also a blue line visible in one shot for Scott.

I'm only 5 minutes in but am going to keep an eye out for any red there for Alan!

dawg this was not what this show deserved recognition for D:

[dontcallme-johnny]

this is LEGENDARY, museum worthy!!

It’s 2039, in a divided world on the brink of war it has become easy for humanity to become forgotten.

Fearing what mankind may become, a husband and wife duo, with the help of old friends, decide to make an old dream reality and do something about it.

This was meant to be a quick mockup. It took four days. I don’t even know if I like it. Someone put me in the ground.

So a little about this:

It uses the timeline of my TAG rewrite (which will be posted soon) as a base, so is technically an au of an au. A timeline divergent prequel au! As a result, some things haven’t happened yet (Lucille is still alive, Sam hasn’t had his accident, some Tracy boys aren’t around yet, etc)

Thank you @spectre-0ne and @thebirdfantasy for letting me through this at you both to bounce off of. And dealing with my screeches

I don’t know if I’ll ever do much with it so other people can do whatever they’d like. Change the bird designations around if you want, I’m still not 100% it was really hard 🥲

Stats to show me losing my mind 🤪:

Time logged: 16 hr 56 mins

Total brush strokes: 12937

Please forgive me Spectre for I did not make Charles ginger 😔

I know the exact one you mean, literal impulse control of a toddler.

Scott Tracy after flipping the light switch Brains specifically told him not to flip

[dontcallme-johnny]

Wow, you have every right to be proud of this!!

9 years ago - according to Facebook memories, I drew this ...

...and I'm still damned proud of this

[dontcallme-johnny]

He deserves all the birthday cakes in the world to make up for breakdown!

I have to admit, I kind of forgot, then when someone reminded me earlier the first thing that came to mind was "oh spectres gonna be all over this!"

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE ONE, THE ONLY VIRGIL TRACY‼️‼️‼️

What a guy 🥰

[dontcallme-johnny]

It's one of my favorite facts about the show, the sheer amount of people from all over the world who worked on it is such a cool thing!

I don’t know how often this circulates but I just finished watching it’s such an interesting listen

[dontcallme-johnny]

Could this possibly be the same panel just re-uploaded/from a different perspective?

I can't see the first video either, but Thomas Brodie-Sangster seems to be wearing the same shirt as he is in the original thumbnail, and is sat next to Kayvan Novak as well. Could still possibly be a different video entirely, have parts cut out, or the the video from the official page might be a segment that isn't in the reupload, but it seems pretty lengthy as is.

(I also have no clue if it might be blocked as well, it seems fine here in NZ, but can't say for anywhere else)

It's one of my favorite panel recordings of the show, full of a lot of stuff around the early concept thinking, and a good amount of acting content as well!

I don’t know how often this circulates but I just finished watching it’s such an interesting listen

The person I reblogged this from deserves to be happy

I tried to scroll past this. I really did

[dontcallme-johnny]

Parker definitely has the element of surprise down pat

Some doodles I made whilst watching Trapped in the Sky

Some thoughts on the episode:

When that guy was clinging onto the pipe inside Fireflash, could they not have closed the door so he wouldn't fall out? My first thought was 'oh, this guy is falling right out of there again' AND THEN HE DID. No worries though, they'd never have sent him out there without a parachute, which of course they did EXCEPT THAT IT DIDN'T DEPLOY! I was so stressed out for this guy, thank god for his spare, but wowee.

Watching the Thunderbirds get deployed is so satisfying

Scott: Yo, what's the status on that radiation shield? Pilot: Oh, that thing has totally expired, we're all dying here. (<- not how it went down but basically tho)

Virgil applies the brakes, they're not super effective, they're rapidly running out of runway and then Virgil thinks 'damn, maybe I should have used ALL my braking power for this' OH YOU THINK!?!?

Virgil: *crashes* Scott for 5 minutes: 🧍‍♂️ Scott: Oh shit, Virgil are you OK? Virgil: 🙃👌 never better (when it cuts to him just upside down in the fsking peter griffin death pose I just about lost it omg)

Also my evil little brain that decides all blorbos must be whumped had an absolute field day with the potential of that little crash, like yes, YES!

Lady Penelope is a chaos gremlin and I love her for it.

Just checking, you don't hear an ominous ticking coming from below you, right...?

or the sounds of someones screaming as they're falling out of said plane?

My plane just arrived. Thunderfam I think I’m cooked 😪

"dad never liked the piano"

Give me Virgil who always thinks it’s his responsibility to check in with everyone

Give me Virgil who is secretly exhausted from worrying about Scott because if he doesn’t, who will?

Give me Virgil who doesn’t want to be a shadow of Scott and his parents.

Give me Virgil who wants his own identity and to pursue his own interests.

Give me Virgil who is haunted by the faces of all the people he’s lost and pretends he doesn’t see them.

Give me Virgil who, when he can’t fall asleep gets up to play the piano but once he sits down he hesitates. Wondering if pressing a few piano keys can really save him from his grief this time.

Give me Virgil who resented the piano after the Zero X—dad never liked the piano.

Give me Virgil who couldn’t even look at his sheet music of ‘Moonlight’ because it holds the memories of the days after mom died.

Give me Virgil who can’t find enjoyment in the little things like piano and painting after losing people on rescues.

Give me Virgil—the bear—who is weighted by a blanket of grief, but still manages to check in on everyone after a rescue.

Give me Virgil staring at his piano, not even wanting to find comfort in a melody because he doesn’t think he deserves it after failing to save someone.

Give me Virgil who one day after a particular rescue doesn’t look at his art and piano ever again, but instead does laps in the pool with Gordon as a form of punishment rather than a way to channel his emotions.

Give me Virgil who, for the first time, gives up.

I know we haven't talked much, but you're genuinely such a light to everyone you interact with, me absolutely included. It's always, and I mean always, okay to take a step back, whenever, for whatever reason. I'm sending over so many hugs, you've got this.

For a while now, I've been wrestling with this whole thing, distracting myself with jokes, art, trips, the gym acting like the topic doesn't even exist.

That was… until a few hours ago, when my dad nearly beat me up because he thinks I'm playing with my life by postponing my surgery. Honestly, they've been way more lenient with me than they had to be, considering I'm still underage and they actually gave me the right to choose.

Like, if my mom hadn’t dragged him out of my room, he would have hit me. And when my dad hits, besides the sting that lasts a week, it's that cursed guilt afterward mixed with that look in his eyes that says (I'm disappointed in you) that crushes my chest way more than any physical pain.

So yeah, if I really am going through with surgery, I'd rather delete my blog first. Because after surgery… nothing's certain. And no joke people die. I don't want to leave this place behind with a blog still floating around.

Anyway, it's a heart valve replacement. Basically like changing a car wheel. But I've got a history of bad panic attacks, and I honestly wish I could skip it but in that case, my butt would be in danger from my parents instead.

So yeah, I'm gonna delete it. Not (maybe) .Definitely.

I'll miss you all. You've been like the big sibling I always wished for (and sometimes little ones too). Thank you for giving me energy by complimenting my art, and for letting me run my Brandon RP here.

God, I wish you knew how much I love you all even the ones who secretly don't like me but pretend they do. Thank you for making this place feel like a safe home for me.

[dontcallme-johnny]

you had better believe I'm using these!!

Helloooooo!!!

So @thundergirl007-writes uploading copies of the TAG magazines got me inspired. I decided to copy the colouring pages and make higher quality, transparent pngs so everyone can either download and colour them digitally or just print them off to use.

Here's part one, I'll be doing these randomly and maybe take a little creative liberties if I think they're needed.

OH MY GOD??

Virgil had been drawing for almost two hours before he frowned. Something…something wasn’t right. He looked at the scene on his canvas then back at the mountainside before gasping and jumping up, canvas and pencils forgotten…

‘DAD! DAD! THE MOUNTAIN’S MOVING!’

His shout was drowned out by the avalanche sirens.

[dontcallme-johnny]

Hey there, and welcome!! Your oc sounds genuinely so cool, super hyped to hear more if you choose to share it! :D

Pinned post!

Hi! My name is Franklynn(for now) and I’m a huge Thunderbirds fan! I discovered Thunderbirds around 4 years ago and it has not left my mind since

This account is for my Thunderbirds obsession and I will be posting my au stuff here!

I’m 19, genderfluid, panromantic, and aegosexual. Any nsfw leaning posts will be tagged with trigger warnings and hidden below the cut.

I have a self-insert oc named Pacicadia Icomb who joins international rescue. They’re basically me except pansexual. Everyone calls them either “Paz” or “Ico”, except for the Hood(who they tame hehe) who calls them “Ici”

I’ll be posting my Thunderbirds ideas, art, and au lore on here!

I also have a silly style I use for most of my Thunderbirds art because I used it to get me out of art block and now I’m addicted to it…
