“Hiccup, it’s not the battle that counts, son. It’s the war.”

Tried to redesign the riders to be a little more believable? … as in convincing but not historically accurate? Tried taking the ac:Valhalla approach, I think they look kinda cool (pls ignore hiccup he was my test & I can’t get him to look any better but this is more abt design than polish I guess)

The helmets were kind of a nightmare and irl Viking’s defo wouldn’t wear any of those designs but I wanted it to still feel like their helmets. Snotlout esp needed his horns they’re too cute I’m sorry.

Astrid Hofferson ————————————- Have a Hofferson! I had a lot of fun with the background in this one. Also Astrid is the definition of badass. 💀💀💀

something about only being motivated to draw in the middle of the night

Legend says that when the ground quakes or lava spews from the earth, it's the dragons letting us know they're still here. Waiting for us to figure out how to get along. Yes, the world believes the dragons are gone, if they ever existed at all. But we know otherwise. And we'll guard this secret until the time comes when dragons can return in peace.

I haven’t seen anyone say this but does anyone else think that Heather used to have two plaits? It looks like her hair was cut, probably by the outcasts

Here’s a really rough draft of what I think it probably looked like before she was kidnapped

“We Celebrate”

I had planned to post this a while ago but life likes to tell me otherwise, heheh… So now it’s the first art post of the new year (and I guess it suits it quite nicely, so hurray!) 

I had been itching to draw Stalka for so long and I finally got around to doing it and it was a great feeling! And to make it even more special, my beloved was excited to collab with me and colored it! I love how it came out sooooo so much, so now you can enjoy three versions of young Stalka~! 

I truly enjoyed making this one, and I hope you all enjoy as well!

HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON 2 (2014) dir. Dean DeBlois

This is Berk. A bit trampled and busted and covered in ice, but it's home. It's our home. Those who attacked us are relentless and crazy, but those who stopped them? Oh, even more so! We may be small in numbers, but we stand for something bigger than anything the world can pin against us.

I can never think too much about Httyd 1 Astrid before I get too emotional.

At 15, this girl was so bitter and harsh and kept everyone at a distance and hard on everyone, including herself, and she didn't allow any emotions of hers to shine through beyond anger and its varying shades. I mean, how could she?

She grew up around blood and death, destined to inherit the same war her parents and grandparents did, stuck in an endless cycle of violence no one truly knew how it got started in the first place other than the very plausible reason that their enemy was simply cruel, unreasonable and would never stop coming. Not until one side finally eradicated the other, never knowing that the annihilation of one side would without a doubt automatically mean the destruction of the other before the unknown third party in this war, the Red Death, inevitably moved on to rinse and repeat elsewhere.

Astrid had no prospects for the future and she knew it. She would live out her life as a warrior, fight and get injured until the day she would inevitably die, probably in battle. Except maybe she would get to see her parents die a brutal death before she goes. Maybe even her future husband. Maybe even her future kids. That is, if she even got that far in life.

So no wonder she just stood by and watched with a vaguely sad look as Hiccup was bullied. No wonder her best pieces of advice were "he's never where he should be" and "pick which side you're on." No wonder she got pissed as hell at Hiccup when she fought to get just the littlest bit of an edge in a cruel and unjust world only to have it stolen right out from under her by the chief's son, who basically breezed his way through dragon training thanks to Toothless. No wonder she was ready to tell on Hiccup's ass when she found out he was making friends with the enemy, the same one who would come at night and steal their food and destroy their homes, leaving them to starve exposed to the elements.

And no wonder, when Hiccup shows her that a bleak future of endless cruelty isn't the only option for her anymore, she blooms open like the most beautiful goddamn flower in the entire north. She loves Snoggletog, experimenting with cooking, pranks, big romantic gestures. She gets truly in touch with her emotions and finds it important to build up the guy who literally gave her a future.

Astrid makes me so emotional, guys...
