This thread is long overdue and has hit further problems in being posted delaying it further, apologises for that. Anyway we're here now and finally it's time to look at some troll dads.
This has been pieced together from what has been found online and acknowledges that there is further content in the artbook or somewhere online that has yet to be found. The timeline will also be as accurate as can be guessed
Might as well start with the original Trollhunters book where a much wiggly Blinky of the Lizzgump clan and the fetching lady Johannah Mmmm ARRRGH!!! looked very different to their tv designs. E. M. Gist produced the below artwork that was to be the cover though was replaced by Sean Murray's Amulet artwork fairly last minute. It often blows around the internet in bad quality and never credit so it's a pleasure to finally be able to do that.
Source
Sean Murray has two illustrations with his own take on the duo! If Blinky was more visible you'd see a skirt made out of medals he's wearing. These were part of a set of interior illustrations.
Source includes other illustrations he made for the novel
Understandably for the original Trollhunters film their designs had to be changed to be both more animation and child friendly. Rodrigo Blaas produced this version in 2010 showing Jack Sturges, Handsome Blinky and AAARRRGGHH carrying a hunk of Gunmar around, something that sticks around in the artwork for a long while.
Handsome Blinky can kindly stay away.
Source
On his website John Bell has this artwork from 2012, clearly still in the film phase, of his take on the duo. You can certainly see some themes still sticking around from the earlier days.
Source
Blinky went all sorts of directions as can be seen in this artwork by Francisco Ruiz Velasco. His four arms didn't seem to show up until he took on a more familiar shape and surprisingly he had a tail at one point!
Source
Headless Studios were also trying out different Blinky designs including a tall variant until his more rectangle shape we're more used to started to crop up more and more. There are even more of these in the artbook.
Source
As they deserve a special place being so unique these fuzzy Blinky's are by Francisco Ruiz Velasco and show a rather familiar outfit starting to appear. He still has a little tail though his feet are more feathered than solid but it only adds to his adorable charm.
Source
This one wasn't posted in the original thread, figured it'd be a nice treat for the long wait. Simon Rogers did concept art for the original film and if you look at the bottom middle and left a bit there is a squat Blinky, A tall standing but short legged AAARRRGGHH with a chunk of Gunmar and likely Jim in Trollmarket.
This seemed a good transition piece between the dads too.
Source
AAARRRGGHH seemed to hit his stride much sooner than Blinky did with most changes focusing on how much fluff, facial shape and his tattoos. These images are by Francisco Ruiz Velasco and include shorts prior to that loincloth number he'll be sporting soon. With his build heading the right direction too he's already looks like a good boy.
Source
Meanwhile at Headless Studios, AAARRRGGHH design started to cement into something more familiar to us by keeping that scruff n fluff and extending it. This is the first appearance of his arm stripes which will stick around for quite a while along with leg wraps. His tail is pure fuzz when it appears.
Source
Shown in the artbook along with an art version by Headless Studios (A version of is below too), this small statue was used in the original pitch and was created by Chris Ryniak! Poor Toby.
Source
Blinky in the meanwhile was still being fairly fast and funky though now his shape seemed to stick and it was more the specifics that were in flux. His number of eyes kept changing, glasses, fabulous eyeliner and even a camp counselor look going on.
Bar minor adjustments though he too would hit his stride. All the below are by Headless Studios.
Source
The colours remained in flux for a while though and a number plate temporarily appears on his shoulder. He does look rather fetching in pink though? The chunk of Gunmar is back and AAARRRGGHH remains stable for the time being other than being red. Both are Headless Studios again.
Source
Sergio Casas did a colour pass making the trolls makeup game the best it'll be. AAARRGGHH's arm stripes are starting to dwindle though the earring is sticking as it will until the final. This is also the last appearance of Blinky's number plate.
Source
More Headless Studios! His arm warmers make their last stand here and the more obvious loin cloth putting an appearance. The bottom middle one is likely what Betsy Bauer based the phone artwork in Wizards on. Look at that smile.
Source
Two more by Francisco Ruiz Velasco, while the top image does have vague hints of fuzzy Blinky AAARRRGGHH lacks his arm warmers for clear rune marks instead. The second image showing "Gunmar" at Killahead Bridge comes much later and AAARRGGHH having a sharper design than the softer rounded one he did previously.
Source 1 / Source 2
Jonatan Catalan Navarrete portfolio includes a poster for when it was still very much the film version and a slightly terrifying Blinky model (A textureless version is in the artbook) and the final appearance of the hunk of Gunmar.
Source
There is actually two versions of the below image by Alfonso Blaas though this is the lesser known one with gorgeous lighting, the other being an earlier blue concept used to announce the Trollhunters tv project. AAARRGGHH has his loincloth still but very much looking like who we know and love now.
Source
Due to hitting the image cap the thread has been split into two! You can find the second part here.

En 1821, Don Diego de la Vega devient maire de sa bien-aimée ville de Los Angeles qu’il compte bien faire prospérer. Cependant, la municipalité est confrontée à des problèmes financiers du fait de l'avidité d'un homme d'affaires local, Don Emmanuel, face auquel les pouvoirs du maire s’avèrent insuffisants pour combattre l’injustice. Diego n'a pas fait appel à son double Zorro depuis 20 ans. Mais au nom de l’intérêt général, il n'a plus d'autre choix que de ressortir son masque et son épée. Très vite, Diego va rencontrer des difficultés à concilier sa double identité de Zorro et de maire, ce qui met à rude épreuve son mariage avec Gabriella, qui ignore son secret. Diego pourra-t-il sauver son mariage et sa santé mentale au milieu du chaos ?
The concept here is to send in a question or a letter request, and you’ll get a response from your fictional character of choice, from the list below. Please stick to the list I’ve made, but of course, you can ask if there’s some other characters I write for, I don’t always remember all the shows, movies or books I’ve consumed over the years and I’m sure I’m missing a lot 😅

WAIT THIS IS FOR THAT OTHER ANON HOLD ON HERE I HAVE A LIST OF ALL THE GHOULS AND WHEN THEY WERE THERE. I DID NOT SPEND MONTHS COMPILING EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT GHOST INTO OnE DOCUMENT FOR NOTHING!!! YIPPEEEE (also im 99% sure this is all correct but some things might be wrong idk) (also also i included the irl people who play the ghouls btw)
Era 1
The very first lineup of ghouls was from 2010 to 2011.
Alpha (played by Simon Soderberg)
-Lead guitar
-White Fantomen guitar (white with pointed black pickguard, curvy)
-Fire symbol on guitar
-Hand tattoos

-Omega symbol on guitar
Earth (played by Aksel Holmgren)
-Drums
-Left-handed
Air (played by Mauro Rubino)

In 2011, Water replaced Chain.
Water (played by Rikard Ottoson)
-Bass guitar
-Same guitar as Chain’s
-Wore blackout contact lenses
Era 2
From 2012 to 2014, the lineup remained the same as Era 1. In 2014, a new person began to portray Water, although the ghoul’s name remained the same. During this time, Earth was also replaced, and the new drummer ghoul was nicknamed Little Earth because of his small stature.
Water (played by Linton Rubino)
-Bass guitar (same as previous Water’s)
-Large hands
-Tall
Little Earth (played by Martin Hjertstedt)
-Drums
-Short and small
-Spun drumsticks
Era 3
In 2015, Water was replaced again. He also switched guitars, although his name stayed the same.
Water (played by Henrik Palm)
-Bass guitar (white with larger rounded black pickguard, curvy)
-No symbol on guitar
-Tall
In 2016, there was a transitional lineup change. Omega played his last show on July 2, 2016. His position as rhythm guitarist was replaced by Water, who switched to a Black Gibson SG guitar (fully black, pointed, black pointed pickguard with a white outline) without any elemental symbol on it.
From July to September of 2016, Ghost had no live bassist. In September, the first ghoulette, Mist, joined and became the bassist.
Mist (played by Megan Thomas)
-Same guitar as Water’s previous one (black and white bass)
-Looser costume than other ghouls
-Often wore nail polish
-Had slightly heeled shoes
During the “Black to the Future” tour, an unknown ghoul would occasionally come onstage and hit a cowbell during the song Ritual. He would then be shooed away by Papa.
Cowbell (played by Niels Nielsen)
-Cowbell
-Only played on one leg of 2015 US tour
In early 2017, the lawsuit happened, which involved Alpha, Water, Little Earth, and Air. During the lawsuit, the lineup of ghouls completely switched, although Papa Emeritus III remained the frontman and was still portrayed by Tobias. Omega and Mist were not involved in the lawsuit, but they still left. Tobias won the lawsuit.
Before his part in the band was revealed, Tobias went to public events and was interviewed as either his Papa persona or as a character called Special Ghoul. Special Ghoul was just a normal ghoul costume Tobias wore during interviews—Special did not perform at all.
“The Popestar Tour” consisted of an entirely new group of ghouls, which debuted in March 2017 and played until September.
2017 Popestar Lineup:
Aether (played by Chris Catalyst)
-Rhythm guitar
-No symbol on guitar

-Same white Fantomen guitar as Alpha
-Very interactive with crowd
Chair/Zephyr (played by Zac Baird)
-Keyboard/synth
-Sat down while playing
-Had two keyboard setups
-Tall
-Same symbol on keyboard as Air
New Earth (played by Jan-Vincent Velasco)

-Wore bracelets
In late 2017, New Earth left and was replaced by Mountain.
Mountain (played by Hayden Scott)
-Drummer
-Tall
-Does not usually wear shoes
Era 4
Ifrit and Chair were meant to be temporary ghouls to replace the ones who left during the lawsuit, so they left Ghost after the end of Era 3. Dewdrop replaced Ifrit’s position as lead guitarist, using the same white Fantomen as he did. Cumulus, a new ghoulette, replaced Chair on the keyboard. A new ghoul, Rain, took over Dewdrop’s previous role as bass guitarist. Another new ghoul and ghoulette joined and took on multiple roles. For the first time in the band’s history, the ghouls began to sing backing vocals live.

Cirrus (played by Laura Scarborough)

Era 5
Throughout Era 5, the lineup remained the same as Era 4. However, a ghoulette named Sunshine also joined during this era.
Sunshine (played by Sophie Amelkin)
-Backing vocals
-Tambourine
-Slim and short
Dewdrop also switched guitars and began using an all-white, rounded guitar. During this era, Rain began occasionally using an all-black, rounded bass guitar instead of his normal one. Finally, Aether also began singing backing vocals in this era.
"When Churlish makes a decison that could endanger Teddy” - So that's what the synopsis meant when "Churlish makes a risky move to impress Benson"
“Muncy must choose how far to go to help her sibling." - This is giving off Simon & Kim feels right here
"She's also loyal to colleague Joe Velasco (Octavio Piasno), making it infuriating for her to work this investigation with on-loan officer Tonie Churlish (Jasmine Batchelor): Muncy hasn't forgiven Churlish for what she sees as a betrayal of Velasco a few episodes back." - Looks like Muncy is upset with Churlish too
"She seeks out Velasco, the only person she can confide in, and finally reveals her past." - This reminds me of Rollins confiding into Fin about her rape
"You get insight into why she's guarded and aggressive, but Velasco brings out her softer side; it's a special friendship." - Reminds me a bit of Rollisi here

I love talking to people about their passion, ideas and thoughts so if you're having to urge to info dump about anything, please say hello.

Main Masterlist

Many of my fics have very dark themes, and I fully believe that fiction should be used to explore the worst parts of humanity. However, it needs to be done well.
I will not write:
Any form of violence against women for the sole purpose of furthering a man's story.
Violence against animals or children.
Sexual assault smut. All my smut heavily features enthusiastic and mutual consent
