Here's a page in my sketchbook of Eddie :3
There are also headcanons for my AU, if you're interested, but no spoilers!
Have a nice day/night!
• Edward was born in England on 2/2, 1938
•By the age of 7, sir Topham Hatt recognised his bright mind and asked him in 1945 to come to Sodor. Not a month later, Edward's family moved to Sodor
• Before meeting Henry and Gordon, Edward rebelled by acting out and wearing a red jacket
• Eddie wanted to fully transition at the age of 14, but due to complications in those days, he was happy with just changing his name.
• When the Sodor Rebellions of the 50s started, Edward, along with 3 others, were put in a bunker. In Edward's case, to hide him and to give him space to write out plans to save Sodor once more.
• Edward was in the bunker from the ages of 14 to 16...
...He did not survive

Hello :3!!
My question is: can the monster engines turn into human or not?
I know is a silly question but I just want to know 😅 ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ..
Hullo!!
Hmmm... Such a curious question...
Well it's very probable that someones can and others can't.
The ones from The Magic Railroad like Lady and Diesel 10 are able to change their physical appareance where and when they want. As they're not real engines, they're a bunch of Gold Dust with the appareance of engines (A bit like in Steven Universe).
Their relatives, Like Thomas, Diesel and Kana (Who's related to the unknown Electric part of TMR) Also can shapeshift.
But the rest of the engines, who were infected by being exposed to this magic blood (Quite dangerous to them), aren't able to change their appareance, so they're condemned to keep this new form... Being exposed to many mortal diseases...Fighting with their own wild instincts... Forever.... 👁-👁
So following this logic, only the TMR engines can turn into humans or anthro-engines.
But i will be nice, and offer you this....

Hello! I adore your art, and I was wondering if I could ask you a question:
How do you come up with your designs? They are so pretty, especially Eddie and James ♡♡
I'm asking this because I'm having trouble creating designs for both Gordon and James for my AU, Hope.
Thank you for seeing this, I wish you a splendid day/night! :3
Why hello!!!
Oh gee I would ramble alot in this
Before I make a design, I like to list things that I like about them, their hcs, their ethnicity, and their primary colors
For example, Edward's primary color is blue, but he as a character is a kind and soft soul, in my hc his patience thins faster in adults, so a combination of white and red is a great indicator of this, The red being on his Tie and hair tie so it doesn't overpower the other colors.
My James is the one that's a little complicated, mainly because he's more based on his ethnicity, but him being a vainy, self-centered and show-offy means he likes to stand out, he likes being in the center of attention, so gold is the next best option, but for my James because he have aspects of him that is more cozy (he likes cooking, making clothes and learning languages), earthy Brown is used to support the bright red, that also helps with tuning down his personality a bit.
And next, are Shapes!
Again, their personality plays a big part, in Designing it's a factor that you would want to show your character's personality through their design, The three pillars of Round, Square, and Triangle Aspects plays a huge role.
If you see here, My Edward has a more fluffy, friendly look to it, with a hint of an old soul, and a fire that had died out, his design is rounded.
The same with my James, he has more edge, a sharper touch than Edward!
Appearance is also important, wether you go hand to hand by giving them buffers like a literal anthropomorphic trains, mecha, or more human etc, appearance is an indicator.
You might make them all have the same uniforms because they're a worker, but giving (for example) Gordon square glasses, then combining it with his basely square body type, can indicate he's a strict person, so on.
My James has alot in his design
Golden details in his clothing, Brown as a secondary color, darker red on his coat so that it doesn't clash with the main red in his outer, earrings and lip piercing indicating he loves accessories to support/show off his appearance, the moles I give him for that beauty marks, the Batik on his coat to represent his proudness of his home country, the coat that he make himself, he wears make up to touch up his appearance.
Alot can go on in a design, Mine is not God-Tier level designing, and I'm not an extremely experienced character designer, but these are the indicators I usually do whenever I make my designs.
In simple terms, list what you want to have in your engine design, and build it off from there, this is to prevent overcrowdedness.
And that's all! Thank you for the ask!
You don't have to follow it step by step, be as comfortable as you like, these are just factors and tips to help in designing🩵
Hope it helps!!!
