Let's go and support my girl! (and that account is run by the same person)

"Ben? What's wrong?"

ENG: I'm proud of the texture and colour scheme of this artwork, but not so much in the lighting (I've set the brush way too light and some of the areas didn't make sense), and Ben and Holly could have a more dynamic pose. Still, I like this painting, but this can be way better, in my opinion.

See you for a redraw in a year or two.

P/s: While I was drawing and rendering the background, I loved how it turned out. Here's some that you can use. And a Ben and Holly flat colour because I love you 🥰(please don't repost it, ok?)

Yesss

Good news!!!

Since I posted the newest Ben and Holly fanart on Facebook (where has the most irl people that I follow), my mum loved the background art of that and changed her Facebook cover photo:

This is an achievement, although my family do support me drawing, this is the first time I see so much engagement from my family and relatives. ;)

NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE SAUCE OF THE CARTOONS YOU WATCH WITH UR 5 YR OLD COUSINS!!!!!!!!!!

Lilia! . . . Explanation: She's Fleur's daughter in my AU. Lilia is really crafty, as she developed a spell to turn a wand into a necklace (as seen in the painting). She's obsessed with magic, the best friend of Oliver (my Benolly son, more sketches later) and is ready to summon the spirits of the past and deceased kings and queens (Vlad the Powerful in particular, more sketches later again). Lilia is based on an OC(same name and hair, different design and palette) I created 1 year ago before I rewatch BAHLK. Her current palette is derived from the species Nymphaea violacea (also called blue lily and is what her wand is made of) as seen below:

Oliver Thistle 💚🕊🎻🌿 & Cherry Thistle ❤️⚔️🥁🍒

Music boy and Mercenary girl Oliver: violin and musical prodigy and nerd, serious and stuck-up on the outside but insane and rebellious on the inside. He is introverted, creative, disciplined and passionate about becoming a singer, conductor and violinist but hates being king (or anything related to leadership outside of conducting in general,). Oliver panics easily, is a perfectionist, and can be inconsiderate to others' needs. But if somebody asks him anything about music and violins in general; he would be delighted (but not to those ain't practising) . He's a waistcoat enthusiast like his great-grandfather (Victor - Oliver is Granpapa Thistle but more recessive and needs to be awakened lol)

Cherry: polar opposite of Oliver: laidback, not serious on the outside but is on the inside, aviation and ladybird nerd. Sporty and a natural warrior (she even has one as a pet and rides it as her "motorbike". And that ladybird later to be revelaed to be one of the canon characters in BAHLK, but wait and see) .She loves to rule and be the leader, extroverted and not as disciplined as her brother. Unlike Oliver who usually follows rules, Cherry likes to break them. She's not as stuck-up and perfectionistic as Oliver

Both of them are equally stubborn and competitive lol.

Their personalities can (and will) change in the development in my AU thought so treat it as a snapshot of the process.

Oliver Thistle - The Violin Prince

Fairytale-y filters and paired with his twin sister - Cherry:

Because he is basically Alexander Rybak but as my Benolly son, so here's the reference image that I drew from:

(Oh boy, this is even longer than Cherry...)

new version, pls reblog

What do you think Ben and Holly’s dynamic and personalities look like?

My opinion:

Ben is usually calm, laid-back and chill and often the only brain cell left in dangerous situations. He is a good observer (in the woodpecker episode when he taught the chicks to fly by mimicking the flying poses despite not knowing how to do it himself), pretty handy and good at fixing things (like all the elves do) and a bit ambitious and a good animal tamer (I’m not sure is it the right term to use, but the successfully ride Speedy the Snail (one of the hardest to be tamed.) and forgives quickly (the elf games). But he can be a teaser (in the elf joke episode, with no ill intent), lose his temper quickly and occasionally dismiss fairies' abilities (such as magic and flying, but he learned from it and never did it as often). And talking about the “Ben’s birthday party” episode, he just asked Holly about his birthday card and either she remembered his birthday (I know the writers used that for plot purposes (reminding Holly to make Ben’s birthday card to get the episode going) but I feel that’s a bit insensitive from Ben’s side, so I would make it his flaw. And he's a bit of a power illusionist (in Superheroes when he cosplayed into Elfman, but his friends just called him Elfboy which is very humourous though)

Holly is outgoing, girly and sometimes pretty bossy. She has a kind personality and is naturally curious about everything (especially elf culture, like she always asks Ben what he’s learning at school or go to his school to experience herself). If she loved someone (familiarly, platonically or possibly romantically), she would be attached to them very much (eg: Nanny Plum, King Thistle, Ben, etc). And in my opinion, she’s one of the smartest fairies in the series (she nearly guessed Barnaby’s fairy disguise (she asked him “Have we ever met you before?” - simple to us the audience but considering how dumb the fairies are, this deserve applause). She compliments other people a lot (especially Ben). However, she is often overconfident of her own abilities (eg: her magical skills and the possibility of it going wrong), sometimes looking down on elven customs (but like Ben she fixed that quickly and may be one of the few fairies in BAHLK treat elves with respect (the other are the fairy kids and Mrs Fig)). She can be cruel with her magic when she’s angry (the elf joke day episode), and has a really scary death glare (the wand factory to Strawberry and to the Wise Wand 3000 in the new wand episodes).

I think both of them are optimistic, love adventure and cared deeply and concern for each other when one of them is in trouble, and treat each other as equals despite of class and race divisions (also deserve another applause)

Regarding to romantic shipping (when they are teens/ adults), they would fit into the “Childhood friends to lovers”, “Interspecies romance” and “Forbidden love” tropes ( considering the class and race difference, segregation and we never see a hybrid or a proper elf and fairy romance in the series )

=> Dynamic: (In the series) Very platonic and sibling-like (Ben and Holly treat each other like siblings that they never had since Ben is an only child and Daisy and Poppy are fucking hell spawns)

I discovered my art has been taken when I was browsing through TikTok (without an account) them I stumbled upon a username reposting my Alexander Rybak in BAHLK style fanart (and the fanart itself isn't related to BAHLK canon at all, so maybe they dug the ben and holly tag here, download it, and reposted it. Like if they just ask me for permission I would allow it)

Jus checked back in on some parts of the bahlk fandom, What the hell happening dog
