Some things at Thomas and Friends that make me wonder

They are some facts on Thomas that really made me think. First: What are the drivers doing when the engines are kicking over the traces? Especially Diesel when he is up to something "devious"? Or James beeing naughty for example? Did they sleep during work in their cabs? Or reading newspaper? Cheking their mobiles? (heh, just joking) Its always strange, it looks like they have no control over their engines. Sometimes, its seen, when Gordon gets stuck on the hill for example or Henry that they argue with their engines. But Diesels driver nothing seems to matter. No: "Hey, Diesel, stop it! Thats enough! Stop biffing the trucks around! and so on. A very interesting fact is Diesel 10. Whats with his driver? Did he even have one? Since Thomas comes to Breakfast we know that engines can not drive on their own, not even brake themselves. They are a lot of scences in the series that always let me say:"What in Ladys name are the drivers doing at the moment?" A very interesting moment too is when Thomas decided to go to see the world, in "Big world! Big Adventures" without telling Sir Hatt. He let himself load on a ship and left Sodor. Beg you pardon? His crew simply allowed that? Without packed suitcases, no spare clothes, not even a toothbrush they go on a world travel? Whats with passports, documents about Thomas? Well, in Thomas world they seemed not such problems. The world is free to roam it seems.

A next fact is more technical. I saw that where Diesels face is in the original real 08 engine is a grill and on a simple inside image its show that behind this grill is a ventilation with a fan. So how does Diesel work with a face plate in front of this "ventilation system" ? I dont know if its for air sucking in or blowing out. Imagine air blowing out where your eyes and mouth are.

It would be interesting to hear your opinions.

An illustration from my second chapter of my Thomas and the magic railroad fanfiction. When Diesel 10 attacks in the night Tidmouth yard, he hits Thomas when he was too cheeky. Gordon was able to sneak up behind him and grabbing him. But he could him hold not long enough that the others could secure him and he got away.

My frist try of sketching Henry. I am not satisfied yet.

[minatoiskyuubismate]

My first attempt drawing Duck. And Diesel. After Diesel had to clean up the mess and Duck left, he returned later. And got a black eye from an very infuriated Diesel! This belongs to my Thomas fanfiction, where Diesel remembers how he and Duck met for the first time.

This is a teaser illustration for a future chapter of my Thomas and friends fanfiction. I will spoil nothing so far you can make your own thoughts.

I used a drawing as reference from Ivyartisan to do a version with Diesel 10 and Thomas. The original of her shows Dagur and Hiccup.

This is the second one after Diesel 10 smashed the shed with Splatter and Dodge unter it. I am changing Diesel 10s attire from time to time to test which design would be the best.

[minatoiskyuubismate]

Finally I was able to do another drawing illustration for my Thomas fanfiction. In my version Diesel 10 did not destroys the shed with his claw, he was thrown against the wooden construction where Spatter and Dodge were hiding from Conductor Casey swinging at him. I draw him three wheels by mistake, but he has only four wheels in front and back.

A video I would like to see

I would like to see a video where Salty (Thomas and the others included) was singing the "shanty" of the Runbar pirates from One Piece together with Brook. I am sure Salty would like their song. Would be a great idea for a crossover fanfic too.

Why? - Because.

Some fanart of Thomas and friends humanized Charcters smoking inspired me for this little quote:

James: Hello, I´m James. Sure I´m smoking. My engine smokes too.

Edward: -_-

[minatoiskyuubismate]

I tried some new pencil sketches from Diesel 10. Reference was used for the poses.

Pressure - if Gordon would sing it.

Thomas: Uh, Gordon, your eye is twitching again...

Gordon: starts singing

I'm the strong one, I'm not nervous I'm as tough as the crust of the earth is

Thomas: "Okay?" Gordon: I move coaches, I move freight trucks And I glow 'cause I know what my worth is

Thomas: " Of course, I mean, hey, where are you going?"

Gordon:

I don't ask how hard the work is Got a rough, indestructible surface Pulling the express, I rail'em, I shunt 'em I take what I'm handed, I do what's demanded, but-

Under the surface I feel berserk as a tightrope walker in a three-ring circus Under the surface Was Hercules ever like: Yo, I don't wanna fight Cerberus?

Under the surface I'm prеtty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of sеrvice A flaw or a crack, the straw in the stack That breaks the engines back What breaks the engines back it's

Pressure like a chuf, chuff, chuff that'll never stop, boop boop Pressure that'll that building inside you till you just go pop, boop boop Give it to your brother, your brother´s older Give him all the heavy things you can't shoulder Who am I if I can't run with the ball? If I fall to

Pressure like a huff, huff, huff, and it won't let go, boo-oop Pressure like a puff, puff, puff till it's ready to blow, boop boop Give it to big brother, big brother is stronger See if he can hang on a little longer Who am I if I can't carry it all? If I falter

Under the surface I hide my nerves and it worsens, I worry somethin' is gonna hurt us Under the surface The train doesn't swerve as it heard how big the snowdrift is Under the surface I think about my purpose, can I somehow preserve this? Line up the dominoes, a light wind blows You try to stop it tumbling, but on and on it goes

But wait If I could shake The crushing weight Of expectations, would that free some room up for joy? Or relaxation? Or simple pleasure? Instead, we measure This growing pressure Keeps growing, keep going 'Cause all we know is

Pressure like a chuff, chuff, chuff that'll never stop, boop-oh Pressure that'll puff, puff, puff till you just go pop, boop-boop Give it to the biggest it doesn't hurt and See if he can handle every working burden Watch as he buckles and bends, but never breaks No mistakes, just

Pressure like a chuff, chuff, chuff, and it won't let go, boo-op Pressure like a huff, huff, huff, till it's ready to blow, boop-boop Give it to big brother and never wonder If the same pressure would've pulled you under Who am I if I don't have what it takes? No cracks, no breaks No mistakes No pressure

Again I found some lyrics who would fit for other characters in other series or films. I changed some words to make it fitting. This time its Pressure from Disneys Encanto. The original song belongs to Disney.

They are some versions of the original song and clips on Youtube to watch.

Here we have Thomas the steamer vs devious Diesel. My first attempt to draw the black Diesel in human / Stex version.

[minatoiskyuubismate]

Here Thomas is not just racing over the Viaduct, Diesel 10 chasing after him, here he lets Lady and the Conductor run for safty at the other side, he himself stayed back to held the Diesel off. He was balancing on the hanging tracks under him the river. And with a old tube he is trying to fend Diesel 10 off. I am trying to write a more violent and whumpy version of the chase at the end of Thomas and the magic railroad, where engines and coaches can transform into humanoid mode and machine mode.

Sorry again for the crappy coloring.

[minatoiskyuubismate]

I finally was able to do another art. I have been watching a lot of "Thomas and friends" Episodes on Youtube. The originals and the fan-made ones. So I did a drawing of Diesel 10 and Thomas as humanized trains in the style of Starlight Express. The colored one is the new one. Dieses 10 holding Thomas in the grip with his claw at his tender. The lineart one below is the first I did years ago. There are some more of them and I dont know if I have already posted them here.

A character sketching of Windchaser an OC of my fanfiction "Frozen-Siblings in all but blood" I used Balto as reference. He is a wolf hybrid like him.
