He’s been brought to life!! @/kamenridersilver (IG) did an incredible job sculpting and printing my Kaiju OC. I can’t wait to paint him up- I can’t stop looking at him. This is one of the coolest things I own now, by far 👁️👁️

I still can’t believe it’s been 2 years now since School of Dragons officially shut down. We timed the movie trilogy to end when the servers went offline ❤️‍🩹 So thankful to SoDOFF (and the other emulator(s?) I need to try too) for making it playable still. My dragons are special to me, pixels or not 🩵

I got too impatient and wanted to show off a WIP👁️👁️ Trying something new. Usually for metallic paintjobs I build up matte shading first and then drybrush on metallic paints and finish with a black wash, but the Razorwhip’s plates are a clean, reflective chrome. So, I’m trying out new things..👀

Finally finished repainting my Stormfly/Deadly Nadder figure! I know- I forgot I had bluesky again until today 😅 Going to post a picture of what the toy looks like before the repaint in the comments as well as a group pic of the 4 I’ve done so far.

Been redesigning my favorite HTTYD species (besides Zippleback) and I’m liking it so far. Doing a live action attempt considering the species is canon to the live action movie 👁️👁️ which is still so surreal to me. Anyway, got lots of ideas for this guy

Collection update: just finished ordering everybody to complete my McDonalds (EU) HTTYD 2 collection, and started on the other fast food HTTYD collections. Waiting on a handful of Playmobils to arrive as well as my grail (Live Spectacular Stormfly). Not collecting any other franchises for a while 😅

Been running around all day. Coming home with me, Yoda is! Wellll only for a week. Fixing him up and then there’s a biggggg commission I’ll be putting together and painting in the box next to him. And I still need to finish my personal project before HTTYD live action releases! Busyyyy!

I was eating a biscuit and he was resting on me, until a crumb dropped, and he lunged for it. He didn’t think for even a second. I couldn’t pry all of it outta his mouth so he got away with some. He is NOT supposed to eat that 👁️👁️

Working on a thing 👀

Some more photos whoops- I love doing photoshoots of me and my dragons in the game 🫶 part 1

My main dragons (and my fits that match) in School of Dragons!
🩵Zip and Zap: my # 1 this playthrough- she’s my Hideous Zippleback
💛Goldrush: Skrill
💙Nightwing: My # 1 from my very first playthrough, I brought him back of course, he’s still very special to me!
🧡Jumblejump: Titan Wing Death Song

This is going to be a thread lol. I don’t even know which design is a worse downgrade- HTTYD3 Toothless or the live action. Toothless used to be sleek, a healthy balance of both adorable and intimidating, clearly inspired by a variety of ✨wild✨ animals, and have beautiful coloration/patterns (1/?)

We got a nice printer and sticker cutter machine in today and we’re picking up a 3D printer from a friend tomorrow!
Lots of good investments very excited to finish prepping for the con coming up. Yippee!

Some MMO battle event pics from earlier in SoD. Been working on leveling up my Titan Wing Deathgripper, Bugtusk. I matched his colors with my outfit too : >

Happy 1 Year Anniversary to Godzilla x Kong: The New Sloppire 🎉 You’re not good, but you are fun. I still love you, and you’ll *probably* always be my most watched movie in theaters. Maybeee I’ll rewatch you later, but I’m glued to the screen rewatching Race to the Edge for the
2nd time this month 🤭

Periodic reminder that I am NOT a furry 😅

WIP, drawing Zip & Zap and Nightwing, my main dragons 💙 to celebrate HTTYD’s 15th anniversary today! I still need to make that thread…
March 27, 2025 at 12:33 AM
HAPPY 15 YEARS TO HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON!! I’m going to post quite the hefty thread looking back on my nostalgia surrounding the first movie today, it is the most special franchise to me, alongside Twister/s (if that counts) and then followed by Godzilla , then other stuff… HTTYD the GOAT tho💚
March 26, 2025 at 3:07 PM
SHOUTOUT TO TWISTER (1996) FOR BEING THE FIRST MOVIE ❗️EVER❗️ TO RELEASE ON DVD 30 years ago today! My favorite movie ever the GOAT I love Twister so much

I love my recent Titan Wing Sandbuster in School of Dragons. He instantly became a favorite along with Nightwing and Zip and Zap🫶
March 24, 2025 at 1:21 AM
Grail acquired! The Live Arena Spectacular Toothless figure, a rarity to come by but I finally snagged one. He’s really neat!
March 17, 2025 at 7:44 PM
More School of Dragons screenshots, sorry I will probably be spamming these for a while haha. I missed this game so much. Some Hidden World scenery with Zip and Zap, my Zippleback 💙

Super early WIP- finally got around to starting on this Toothless custom. I had to resculpt his tail (whoever had him before tore or chewed it off lol) and he’s getting a full repaint. He will have his Alpha glow, and I’m gonna try and make it glow-in-the-dark 👀 his patterns are a pain to paint tho💀

Class went fantastic! Everyone had a great time and thankfully they were all *already* HTTYD fans to begin with so they were familiar enough with it. Here’s my sketches I came up with as I always work along with them on the assignments. Success! They liked playing with my figures too haha
