[vierrel41n]

It’s them!!! Having a tea party!! From left to right: Yasmin, Gaston, Lucy, Holly, Ben, Katie

I had realised I haven’t drawn like art art of them and I haven’t drawn the humans in a while or Gaston so here’s them together in the pony world >w<

I also gave Ben a bit of a redesign

Here is also a Mr’s Elf design!!! I wasn’t sure about her cutie mark so I just did smth random lol. Thinking of designing Mr Elf after a strawberry roan because I think that’d be cute. Also gave her a little overbite! Because I also thought that’d be cute. And that it’d fit her

Did another version with a few grey hairs >3<

Baby Marigold and Thistle!! With their mom… thinking of calling her smth storm related like Stormy Weather or something.

Is it me or are girl characters the most fun to design

Also sorry about the bad quality Tumblr keeps upscaling/downscaling my art 😞

What I love the Ben and Holly fandom the most is how diverse our fanartists are, in spite of the size of the fandom. Like everyone has a different and signature artstyle.

And also press F to pay respects for any BAHLK fanblogs that have been deactivated.

Real talk fo a second, why almost every dad in bahlk so dysfunctional while almost every mom a literal Girlboss?

King Thistle (need no explanation), while Queen Thistle a queen literally n Metaphorically. She somehow the only one who able to manage the twins n stay calm under crazy circumstances, also you seen when she get Angry? Mr Elf who aint able to stop working fo one second n start getting all upset when he told to do something else, while Mrs Elf, although silly in her own right, yall seen how she act when she think King Thistle was sending Mr Elf to Prision?? She able to start a whole revolution herself, or at least got the spirit fo It. N last, Lucys dad (Nathan), who i think one the most pathetic (lighthearted) characters in the Show. He freak out at even the thought of an elf or fairy, in contrast to Lucys mom (Sally) who use to talk to them when she younger, n from what i able to remember she chill with them bein There.

Edit, anotha Example: Fairy Mayor n Strawberrys mom (dunno if she gotta name), the mayor who entire gag is getting repeatedly stepped on by some human kid, n the mom who a veterenarian so you gotta love Her.!

Can you make a moodboard of Ben Elf and Princess Holly from Ben and Holly's Little Kingdom please? Thanks! (and make Ben steampunk,elfcore and oak and blue colour-themed and Holly cottagecore, fairycore related and holly and pink colour-themed respectively) Here's the reference of both of them, btw (although I want seperate moodboards for each of them)

Of course! :D

What do you think Ben and Holly’s dynamic and personalities look like?

My opinion:

Ben is usually calm, laid-back and chill and often the only brain cell left in dangerous situations. He is a good observer (in the woodpecker episode when he taught the chicks to fly by mimicking the flying poses despite not knowing how to do it himself), pretty handy and good at fixing things (like all the elves do) and a bit ambitious and a good animal tamer (I’m not sure is it the right term to use, but the successfully ride Speedy the Snail (one of the hardest to be tamed.) and forgives quickly (the elf games). But he can be a teaser (in the elf joke episode, with no ill intent), lose his temper quickly and occasionally dismiss fairies' abilities (such as magic and flying, but he learned from it and never did it as often). And talking about the “Ben’s birthday party” episode, he just asked Holly about his birthday card and either she remembered his birthday (I know the writers used that for plot purposes (reminding Holly to make Ben’s birthday card to get the episode going) but I feel that’s a bit insensitive from Ben’s side, so I would make it his flaw. And he's a bit of a power illusionist (in Superheroes when he cosplayed into Elfman, but his friends just called him Elfboy which is very humourous though)

Holly is outgoing, girly and sometimes pretty bossy. She has a kind personality and is naturally curious about everything (especially elf culture, like she always asks Ben what he’s learning at school or go to his school to experience herself). If she loved someone (familiarly, platonically or possibly romantically), she would be attached to them very much (eg: Nanny Plum, King Thistle, Ben, etc). And in my opinion, she’s one of the smartest fairies in the series (she nearly guessed Barnaby’s fairy disguise (she asked him “Have we ever met you before?” - simple to us the audience but considering how dumb the fairies are, this deserve applause). She compliments other people a lot (especially Ben). However, she is often overconfident of her own abilities (eg: her magical skills and the possibility of it going wrong), sometimes looking down on elven customs (but like Ben she fixed that quickly and may be one of the few fairies in BAHLK treat elves with respect (the other are the fairy kids and Mrs Fig)). She can be cruel with her magic when she’s angry (the elf joke day episode), and has a really scary death glare (the wand factory to Strawberry and to the Wise Wand 3000 in the new wand episodes).

I think both of them are optimistic, love adventure and cared deeply and concern for each other when one of them is in trouble, and treat each other as equals despite of class and race divisions (also deserve another applause)

Regarding to romantic shipping (when they are teens/ adults), they would fit into the “Childhood friends to lovers”, “Interspecies romance” and “Forbidden love” tropes ( considering the class and race difference, segregation and we never see a hybrid or a proper elf and fairy romance in the series )

=> Dynamic: (In the series) Very platonic and sibling-like (Ben and Holly treat each other like siblings that they never had since Ben is an only child and Daisy and Poppy are fucking hell spawns)

Unpopular Opinion: Ben and Holly are couple goals

Ok, those who've watched this show will prolly start trolling me but, Hear me out.

Before any of you start up on this, no I am not a pedophile. This is NOT to romanticise an innocent kid show's characters, it is simply an opinion on how wholesome their relationship is compared to other idiocies we suffer through in other shows/novels etc. {Long rant ahead} I know this is a kid's cartoon show, and I've seen it for years when I was young but I've grown to realise that these two are a much more innocent, wholesome couple than a lot of the trash I've read otherwise. Ben for starters is always super supportive of Holly. He sees her for who she is, just a little fairy girl..one of the few elves to do so(the others generally call her Princess Holly but Ben doesn't bother with that, he doesn't 'fear' her) He often defends her and is quick to save her from embarrassment at the Elf school by coming over at once and fixing her broken toy owl for her. He's always ready to help her and never abandons her when she needs anything. He considers her problems his own. On various occasions, Holly is put in dangerous situations he has no business in; and while he could just walk away and leave Holly to it, he never does. He takes care of Daisy and Poppy (which even Nanny Plum had backed out of), goes to the Center of the Earth with her, he immediately invites her to live with him when her castle is about to be made into a cowshed, he initially backs away at the idea of climbing up the web of a spider about his size for the King's medicine until he learns that it could endanger Holly, after which he immediately offers to do so in her place. He stares at just Holly most of the time when they're in the same room with others. He invites her to nearly every one of his family functions and picnics : he just considers her family at this point. He prefers spending as much time with Holly as he can. Holly too cares deeply for Ben. She always rushes to Ben's aid when he needs it. She'd be very concerned when he climbs high surfaces or faces dangerous animals. She isn't a huge fan of his blowing his horn right in her face(she is startled) but goes along with it cause he likes it so much. She never passes up a chance to applaud Ben over a neat idea of his or a brave feat. She quite trusts him, there is hardly anything ever that she hides from him. She too invites him to her family functions and even introduces him to her grandparents. Whenever Ben is upset or worried, she's there to support and reassure him. They do have a few fights but they quickly make up.
