Love how hilda just handles contradictory traits in its characters like:

Johanna: everything about her has revolved around protecting and being there for Hilda. Shes the ultimate badass parent. Yet, for a moment at least, she was almost going to put her lost childhood above her daughters future.

Victoria: arguably the most capable villian in the whole series. Bloody dangerous. Knows it and that she can't change. Becomes the hero - not by changing but by being the villain to the worse villain… heroically?

Frida: super smart and organised. Except she's actually a complete slob in her bedroom but doesn’t realise cause it gets magically cleaned. Legit thinks that’s how bedrooms work until she actually says it out loud.

Erik: completely self centered. Will bully people to get his way. Stubborn af and won't listen to anything contrary to what he wants. But actually emphasises with the trolls desire to see thier mother and let's them

Gerda: super competent, super focused and serious when it comes to her work. We don't get to see enough of this cause she always working and running after Erik - but is... kinda a silly little goofball. Sings in her bedroom. Runs to do her next work task because she's just excited to do it. Says stuff like 'safety patrol is on a roll' just cause she thought of it'd be fun to say

JESUS the Hilda team just knew how to make Attractive Cartoon Women

so like if victoria van gale got to the fairy isles because of a nowhere space breach, does that mean that nowhere space is pan-dimensional like the faratok tree? or did victoria really did just create an interdimensional travel device back in the windmill episode?

if it's the latter, then i don't think it's by intentional design since she only wanted to access nowhere space. probably just a consequence from her machine going haywire.

speaking of interdimensional travel... i saw the reblogs on my prev victoria posts and, YES YOU ARE SO RIGHT. victoria would definitely use those abduction crystals as portals to other dimensions. she already manage to teleport across the fairy isles with it AND send radio broadcasts to the overworld, what's stopping her from going beyond that?? kinda funny how she went from weather broadcasts to ripping through the space-time continuum across universes. lol i mean what more can you expect from the mad scientist of trolberg herself?

Part 3 of making genderbent designs of the Hilda characters

[experimentjr]

And they are finally here!

Tontu, Alfur and... Victoria van Gale?!!! 😱😱😱

Poor Tontu, got into some trouble in these 10 years and Victoria... well, she lost some weight XD

Now that these are finished, Erik Ahlberg is next

✨Why am I like this✨

The ending of Hilda is hialrious actually.

Local science aunt menace who was exiled to a windmill and then later threw herself into purgatory, kidnapped a baby once, made a zombie, and almost killed an entire town twice creates teleportation technology over the course of one afternoon and then proceeds to immediately and willingly sell her soul to the queen of the fairies not twenty seconds after that.

It is implied that the fairy queen got the short end of the stick on that deal.

reading through the wiki, apparently that hilda's world book mentioned that victoria van gale once got struck by lightning and was "never the same" since then. WHAT??? what does that mean?? they can't just drop a bombshell of a backstory detail and leave it just as crumbs. requesting anyone with tie-ins to find out more about this crazy woman lol.

I remember seeing this part years back and it made me wonder if there would be more to Victoria’s backstory

Just a heads up that I watched s3 and will only be drawing Hilda for the foreseeable future. Also this acc will NOT be spoiler free.

Victoria Van Gale needs to be in s3 of Hilda because actually competent human villain. But consider…

Victoria returns with upgraded nissa/magic powers/conquerer of the knowledge of nowhere space. She’s the queen of mind games and leaves Erik’s blunt force approach to manipulation in the dust, but there is no way she’s going to trick the kids a third time. They’re immediately onto her BS. Instead, she offers her newfound knowledge to Safety Patrol as a gift. She wants to help! And she immediately sees how gullible and just plain stupid the new Safety Patrol leader is. The kids, of course, warn Gerda. And Gerda confronts Victoria. And Victoria… admits to all of it. But she’s changed… getting flung to the far corners of Nowhere Space and fighting her way out tooth and nail saw to that!

And Gerda… well, she’s a little wary after everything that happened with Erik. But she also feels a little guilty. Sure she stood up to him. But she backed off at the very last hurdle. She went hands off and he shot her down and it was such a shock she backed off. It was Hilda who went that extra step, who didn’t give up on him and finally got through to him. What if she hadn’t? What would have happened to Trolberg… and to Erik? Did she give up on him too soon?

It’s this kinda headspace that makes her feel the kids are being too harsh. Vitoria was honest with her - not like Erik’s usual blather. So she trusts her… and then as soon as Victoria gets whatever she was after, she shows her true colours. And Gerda realises she’s actually swung too far the other way and let herself get in the same position as she was with a Erik… letting someone pull her strings and manipulate her. And she is so so angry with herself.

Of course the kids would pull her out of it. And Victoria will have underestimated her because she just thinks she’s dumb. And between Gerda’s practical smarts, the kids help (probably to counter the magic) and the fact Gerda would actually get her officers help (and Victoria would just rely on her own smarts) defeat her.

((Also so much fun drawing these two together - such different body types 🥰))
