REDRAW!!
Redraw adjacent from a few years ago, this post!
Similar design and I tried to go with an actual pose then a silly little bit to go w/ it
Here he is! Sorry for going out of order, I just had a clear idea for him. I think I’m going to format these like this instead of the one I did for Skarloey, I like it much better. :) I wonder who will be next? ;)
Anyone interested in a 4 year redraw?
Would there be any other mythological species in your ttte human au? Like werewolves or fairies for example?🤔
Yes! My TTTE human!au is set in a universe me and my husband created together called @thestrangeverse . This is a alternate version of earth where supernatural creatures, people and magika exists much like in the folk lore and fairy tales we write off as fiction here. (We’re still trying to arrange everything we have on it like world info and stuff which is a challenge because it’s extensive, but if you want an intro and to read on some of the major storylines within that world go over to that blog. We’re currently working on the first comic and hoping to post it soon!)
So yes, there are definitely other supernaturals around, including Fae and werewolves! The Boulder is one example, being a supernatural creature known as a gargoyle which Rusty keeps as a pet much to the other narrow gauges’ dismay.
⬇️ For fun, here’s some of the Engines designed if they belonged to some Supernatural Races from @thestrangeverse , where my Sodor516 AU is unofficially canonically based. All info here is part of my husband and I’s original webcomic project. So I hope y’all enjoy the lore and the TTTE spin on it ❤️ ⬇️
Thomas and Percy best fit the Faefolk. Fae are an old race, in their prime they were considered one of the most powerful established cultures. Modern Fae however aren’t able to connect back to their roots after a conflict between their ancestors and the Engineers almost wiped out the ancient Fae. Faefolk are known to be a free spirited race, their Magika formed around Earth’s elements, nature, and illusions. Each Fae also possesses a pair of wings, which vary in colour, patterns and opacity with every individual. There are of course major differences between Modern Fae and their ancient ancestors, but that’s a whole other can of worms. Thomas and Percy are both young at heart, Thomas being playful and cheeky fits the Fae’s tricksy nature while Percy is kind, helpful and determined, not to mention smol, which also fits this race as they’re usually not very big in stature.
Edward best fits the Dragon. Dragons are a varied race of supernatural beings, usually split into two main classes, Eastern Dragons and Western Drakes. They are one of the oldest, and most powerful creatures within their world. They’re recognised by most other supernaturals as some of the wisest beings around, especially Eastern Dragons who are known to be benevolent balance keepers. Each Dragon is born with a link to a certain Cosmic or Earth Bound Element, and this shows through their appearance and unique set of abilities. Edward was technically the first engine on Sodor, not to mention he frequently is seen as the wise elder who has plenty to teach younger engines. This makes him perfect as a Dragon, specially an Eastern Dragon.
Henry was a tough one but he does fit the Merfolk. Merfolk are one of the most abundant and well recognised supernatural races to date. They are as varied as ocean life itself, with their own subclasses depending on what ocean and region they come from. In their prime, the Ancient Merfolk were the biggest rival to the legendary city of Atlantis. They once were an impressive force, making up 4 powerful tribes spanning every corner of the earth’s oceans. In present day, Merfolk have lost touch with their ancient ancestors, their magika and their pantheon of deities due to the seas changing so drastically thanks to human intervention. All Merfolk subclasses fall into 2 categories, the Sirens which have a more ‘traditional’ look akin to most human myths on Mermaids, and the Mershifters who resemble sea life and specific aquatic life forms indigenous to the same region they hail from. Henry fits the Merfolk well in terms of his gentle heart and love for nature. Not to mention he pulls the Flying Kipper, which gave me the idea of Henry as a Mer resembling a Kipper. Either way, the tail suits him.
Gordon and the Scottish Twins best fits the Taurfolk. Taurs are an enigmatic race sharing a lot of similarities with other primal supernaturals like Merfolk and Harpies. Taurs are, in essence, are an intelligent race of beings which have the upper half of a human and the lower body of a four legged animal, the most common being a horse or other equine creature. This subclass is dubbed the Centaur. Other, much rarer subclasses of Taur include individuals with the lower portions resembling canines, felines and reptilian animals. Very, very few Taurs live among other races or within the modern world in general, preferring to stick to the wild and their small, tight knit tribes. Those few that do integrate within ‘society’ are often misunderstood and have to live constantly under the mask of Veil (a commodity that allows supernaturals without natural shape shifting abilities to appear human). Gordon is a powerful engine and one of the fastest on Sodor too. He fits the Taur, more specifically a Centaur based on the British Shire breed which are a big, strong and fast breed of horse. Fitting Gordon’s size and strength (and ego). Donald and Douglas are both strong engines with energy and strong work ethic. They work well as Taurs, especially based on common Scottish horses. Their homeland is also home to one of the most interesting known equine cryptids, the Kelpie.
James best fits the Demon (Specifically the Akai Hono). Demons are probably the most varied supernatural race from appearance to abilities, and of course subclasses. One of the most powerful classes are the Hono, split into 4 different kinds each able to use an Earth Bound Element. The Akai Hono are, in layman’s terms Fire Demons. They’re incredibly proud by nature as all Demons are, and quick to anger, their flames fuelled by emotion. All Akai Hono have different appearances depending on individual and their preferences to look less or more ‘human’, as Demons all have an inherent ability to shape shift between their true nature and other forms. The bodies they most often present themselves in are simply the forms they enjoy most. James is an incredibly vain, prideful engine with a fiery personality, and he seldom takes criticism well. I don’t blame anyone who links James with the element of fire, and here the Akai Hono fits him to a T.
Toby, Emily and Oliver fit the Witch / Witch Son. Witches are predominantly a female race of supernaturals, and while uncommon, there are males, referred to as Witch Sons. The origins of Witches are clouded by time, history and human misconceptions. So many variations and superstitions surrounding the idea of ‘witches’ created by humans make it difficult to tell apart the real history of this race, and the fiction spun by fearful people. One commonly accepted theory for their beginnings is that Witches were once early women, who were a lot more sensitive/connected to the Ethereal Realm and the Magika it holds, and in time this connection grew to create a unique race of people with their own gifts. Witches specialise in magika used through Spells, Charms, Hexes and Elixirology. Each Witch / Witch Son has a Familiar which takes the form of an animal, they hold part of the Witch’s soul and are connected as an extension of their being. This is the reason certain animals such as cats, dogs, ravens, crows, toads, hares, mice and bats were often associated with Witches in the past, thanks to humans misunderstanding Familiars. Not all Witches / Witch Sons are evil, or good, they are just people who choose their own paths, that said there are both great and dangerous individuals. Toby is quiet and thoughtful, he fits the image of a lone Witch Son specialising in herbs and hexes. Emily is smart and driven, who would definitely fit the image of a helpful Witch who focuses on spells and charms. Oliver definitely would have a Toad as a Familiar and best friend, as well as opting to focus on potions and Elixirology to help heal and guide others who’re as lost as he was once.
Duck best fits the Harpy (because I couldn’t help myself). Harpies were a much more abundant race before humanity rose to the power it has now. Sharing roots with Merfolk, Harpies have a primal magika based on Earth Bound elements like Water and Air, and possess limited shape shifting abilities. These beings usually resemble various species of bird be it strongly or vaguely, depending on the region they’re from. They’re numbers are quickly dropping due to the world changing so much, and their feathers, claws and vocal chords are all valuable ingredients in Elixirology. Generally, Harpies are a proud people that stick to their own. Duck is a tough one to choose for as he fits some other races, though the Harpy just goes so well. He’s proud of his heritage and past, something Harpies would hold very dear and very close especially in present day. And there’s the whole obvious d u c k thing
Mavis was the toughest one but she does somewhat fit the Vampire. The true origins of the Vampire is unknown, and is a widely debated topic within the Middleworld and amongst Supernaturals. There’s two primary types of Vampire. The Pureblooded; those who belong to ancient bloodlines tracing back multiple centuries, and the Turned; those who were not born Vampire and were once a different being before they were infected. Vampire society is close knit, and can be quite prejudice towards the Turned, with individuals of this kind being abandoned, often excluded and shunned by other Vampires. While their true origins are speculated, it’s a known fact that Vampires are a very old race, and they possess a variety of supernatural talents, unique to each individual. Some common abilities include the power to shapeshift, control minds and flight. Mavis’ chosen style in the Sodor516 AU does go well with the vampire theme, especially if she is a Turned who was human and simply became this way after being bitten.
Lady is an Engineer Construct. Engineers are an ancient race shrouded in so much mystery, no one really knows what they looked like. Even large portions of supernatural communities don’t believe they existed all together and write them off as stories. The Engineers were in fact very real, having disappeared centuries ago following a devastating conflict with the Ancient Fae. The Engineers got their name from their unique and powerful magika which centred around Transmutation and machines. They would build beautiful creations which would be brought to life through their magic. One most valuable creation of this sort were the Constructs, sentient machines which would convert magic into a physical form known as Tangible Magika, or ‘Dust.’ This is essentially what Lady is already, however this is the appearance and purpose she would have if I had designed my human engines directly according to the lore of the StrangeVerse, and if they were canon. While she wouldn’t be an Engineer, Lady is the only known Construct left, and when awake, her presence and production of Tangible Etherium is what transfigures any machinery in her vicinity, giving them souls.

We both hope you guys enjoy this bit of Strange Verse lore. The original project is something incredible important to me and my partner, it’s basically our baby. If anyone enjoyed the stuff here and would like to know more on anything do check out @thestrangeverse and send any asks you’d like there if you want to know more on our Universe!
My Sodor516 AU is unofficially set within the Strange Verse, and there is an equivalent to it in the Strange Verse called Hartgate. So working on this AU and watching TTTE brings a lot of inspiration. (My humanisations for Witch Emily and Vamp Mavis shown here actually play minor roles within our world too ✨)
Asks are open here too by the way. I promised more Thomas and friends art and I’m here to deliver. ❤️💖✨
It's ok but...
Oh goddamnit-
IN NO WORLD DO YOU NEED TO BE MAKING MYTHICAL CREATURE AU'S OF A KIDS TV SHOW ABOUT FUCKING TALKING TRAINS
THIS SHOW IS ABOUT TEACHING CHILDREN AND ADULTS TIMLESS LIFE LESSONS THAT ARE SORELY NEEDED TO BE RELEARNED IN TODAYS WORLD
NOT A STEPPING STONE FOR YOU TO LIVE OUT YOUR PERVERTED FANTASIES
YOU GIVE THE ADULTS IN THIS FANDOM A BAD NAME 😭🫵
LIKE WTF-
I just LOVE how you didn’t read anything in that post. Well done you! ❤️
Here. Let me break this down my darling. So you can understand. We’re gonna take it slow ok?
You don’t have to like it.
I know! Crazy! But wait there’s more. Are you sitting down?
I’ve watched this show since I was a baby. These aren’t ‘perverted fantasies’. This specific post isn’t even an AU, these are ORIGINAL CHARACTERS I CREATED based on the visual design of some fictional engines I like from a show I loved to watch.
This post is me sharing original lore I designed for a world that has nothing to do with Thomas and friends. It’s just a fun challenge I did to see if I could recreate the theme of some Thomas and friends locomotives in original designs for an original story.
The fact that you don’t know the difference between my actual Thomas and friends human designs and this post being about my original webcomic shows you did not read shit and reblogged this to spew bullshit at someone who’s out here trying to enjoy herself.
No one asked you to look at my blog. If you don’t like it, fuck off. But don’t start throwing shit at me. I haven’t done so at anyone else. The world’s a big place my man, move on if you disapprove of my ‘perverted fantasies’.
If anyone’s giving the fandom a bad name, it’s idiots like you who can’t respect that some people will enjoy the same show a little differently, and post hateful shit aimed at others that gives the fandom a bad fucking name.
Go touch grass and leave me alone. 😘
"in no world do you need go be making mythical creature au's of a kid's TV show..." "perverted fantasies" then uses a sonic.exe version of the meme. Like huh that's,,, also a mythical horror version of a kid's game? That actually gets perverted a lot??
This is the only thing on their account that I can see, I'm sure it's just to mess with you. I'm sorry you're dealing with this and I'm sending all the good vibes and support your way ❤️
I have 2 inbox request (from forever ago!!! So sorry) that I am working on, and I would be willing to do some more!
I will draw for TTTE, JJBA, and some other Fandoms in my Carrd.
I got inspired by the art of JJBA that is inspired by model poses, so I made one of my own! Just a little something before bed. :)
Percy X Gator :)
hi rose :3
SHIP IT
1. What made you ship it?
When I first rejoined the fandom, it was at the beginning of quarantine and I was fresh off the bad ending of a friendship. When I saw how big the franchise actually was, I sat down and watched all of the specials—and TOTB made me cry. It’s silly, but seeing Percy and Thomas’s conflict and how Gator helped Percy feel better really reflected how I felt welcomed by my new friends in the community. And, idk, I guess if there’s ever a romance that should be real, it’s one built on such a healthy way of strengthening each other.
2. What are your favorite things about the ship?
The raw emotions, man. In the follow-up episode where Gator returns and they find each other again, I was the victim of SEVERE onion cutting. It’s just all of the little ‘gestures’ and way words are spoken that the silly train show was GOATED for including.
3. Is there an unpopular opinion you have on your ship?
Maybe it’s my personal preference, but I always imagine Percy as more of his model era personality. He was one of the biggest victims of flanderization in the cgi years (which is maybe why I liked his growth in TOTB so much). However, so many people think of Gator as so much older than Percy, which maybe stems from how their voices sound? But I don’t see it. Regression in Cgi era aside, he’s been through so much to not be ‘such an adult.’ I can’t help but see them as the same age; maybe Percy is still a little more naive, but he’s definitely seen as many things as Gator has. If anything, I’d maybe say Percy is older due to all of the gray-hair-growing shenanigans that happen on Sodor. 💀
Anyways shoutout to my homies in the crackship crew discord server and our channel dedicated to pictures of gay trains 👍
OMG ROSIE HIHIHI HOW ARE YOU <3333
I am good!! Glad to find you here ❤️❤️ how are you?
Welcome back from the brainburn place, also also where did you inspired to draw ttte?
Mainly blogs like @/enginescomic and @/asktrio516 really inspired me in the beginning. Both of them have outstanding art style that I admire so much. They both have amazing lore stories that are sooo detailed. If you haven’t already, check them both out.
The other half of it was definitely the friends I made along the way. Without their praise and support I’m not sure where I’d be. ❤️
I've seen your art pop up on my feed. It's very nice.
Thank you very much, I appreciate it!
Can you do me a3 1e first duncan
Updated my design a little bit💛
places to read the railway series (and some other ttte related works)... FOR FREE!
so, I'm not sure if everyone on TTTE tumblr has gotten a chance to read the RWS, so I thought I'd post some links! Note that for some of these you'll need an Internet Archive account to check out the books as it's a virtual library. It's worth it, though! They have a LOT of books!
Internet archive 60th anniversary story collection - Only goes up to "The Twin Engines" but I do like that it contains the forewords. However, I believe those can be found on the TTTE wiki, so you may not find them necessary.
Internet archive Thomas the Tank Engine - the complete collection - All W. Awdry books in one!
All Christopher Awdry railway series books - This one's a pdf.
Internet archive The Island of Sodor, Its People, History and Railways - A non-picture book lore source that's rare to find physically. Also a pdf!
And, as a bonus...
Ongoing archive of Marvel Thomas magazines - This one's being run by @/KingoftheTWR on Twitter. I like reading these, they have quite a few original stories and I am especially fond of the "Write to: The Fat Controller" section! I suggest sorting them by name that way you can start at issue one and not have to run around the archive whenever some of them were uploaded out of order.
When he was younger, he was just lonely and troubled.
Not everyone reacts kindly to a new setting.
Quick doodle of a younger Skarloey
D3 face and E1 colour for Diesel 10? (If you don't have a design for him you can ignore this)
Not my favourite line art I’ve done, but I LOVED playing with these colours! ☺️
