You are the only artist or any creator, period, that I've come across where I absolutely love every single last piece with no exceptions. Do you think cloudjumper could look good in your style? If you got the time and the wish to try. :))

Thank you so much! That means a lot :)

Thank you so so much for asking this because I didn’t realise I was missing out on drawing this guy so bad. HE’S SO FUN????

This is the first time I’ve ever drawn him, so I do apologise if he looks a little odd, but there is so much potential for shape language with his four wings and I am going to explode.

I made this drawing for my mom as a Happy Mother's Day gift and though I should share it here, too!

People give Valka a lot of shit which makes me sad bc her flaws are what make her interesting, and I LOVE thinking about her character.

Like, Have we considered how she had Hiccup at 20 and was married before that? Have we considered that, though she was in love with Stoick, marrying the Chief (or soon-to-be-chief) is a lot of responsibility? Have we considered how young 20 is and Hiccup takes after her in so many ways, not feeling ready for responsibility or wanting to settle down could be one of them? Have we considered she deliberately didn't come back because she maybe felt she wasn't ready to be a mother? Have we considered she loves Hiccup and Stoick so dearly but needed to live her own life? Have we considered how bittersweet the reunion really was because she realized she missed her chance to actually be a mother and how much the guilt of not coming back must've weighed on her?

I LOVE YOU VALKA HTTYD!!!!!!!

Thinking about how Hiccup in the movies is a total mamas boy who grew up without a mama

Hey so I've been *eating up* your TDP au and I looove everything you've made for it!! (The fact that I've finished season 6 yesterday is not helping aaaaa)

May I ask if Valka joins the party? Is she around?

AAAAAAA thank you thank you! Im so glad you enjoy it! It is my current brainrot and i have so many ThoughtsTM about it

And Valka is around......somewhere...... in Xadia.......

When she still lived in Berk she believed that peace was possible with the elves and dragons and did everything she could to convince anyone that they were not bloodthirsty monsters they had to fight. But of course no one believed her.

And so when she got taken by a dragon, after defending it and saving it's life during a raid, she figured that maybe Berk was hopeless and decided to stay in Xadia. (is this a flawed decision?? oh 100%. This action will have consequences in the future ;D)

And now 18 years later, she lives in the Uncharted Forest, helping and healing injured creatures and dragons and giving them a safe haven to reside in. She doesn't get many visitors, mainly because of the boundary spells that are set around her home, but she does get visits from her Sunfire elf friend who drops by from time to time to fill her in on things and ask for her help.

Recently though he's been trying to figure out what's been causing a corruption in the creatures of the region, and asked for her to keep an eye out for anything strange. Aside from that, the only other news Sandy has to share is that there's been a Sunfire elf terrorizing Berk. How strange. :)

Woman finally sees her son after nineteen years, and the first thing that comes to mind is to show him her dragon collection.

Honestly, respect.

Something i’ve noticed is that people can’t have nuanced characters, unless they’re a villain they need their favourite characters to be morally good and nice otherwise they’re the worse character ever, even if they are a villain they hold them to these standards.

I also noticed that it’s only men, which is not much of a surprise anymore but come on.

Somebody likes Bakugou from bnha? Oh no he’s not a teenage bully with a murder count, he’s just misunderstood and he really wants to be better 🥺, guys i promise he’s trying he acts that way because he’s insecure.

Somebody likes Valka from httyd? Oh no you cant like her because…. She was kidnapped by a dragon and then abandoned her family by never going back… even though everybody in the village literally hated her and she didn’t belong there? But no she’s a servant for her husband and son she can’t think for herself, that means she’s a morally bad character and nobody is ever allowed to like her.

Wdym you can’t like a character thats a bit mean? God forbid that woman commit murder. People either try to justify why the character is bad, or they banish them to the “dni if you like this character” corner

Only one day left!

Hiccup’s face when Valka asked who hurt Toothless

The definition of “uh oh…”

[thereweredragonshere]

I'm obsessed with your art and would like to politely devour it like I'm a starving man 🤭

Also, I would love to see Valka in your fabulous style‼️

This woman.

This god damn woman and her absurdly high cheekbones.

Valka. Valka Haddock. Listen. You are an amazing character, your appearance perfectly encapsulates your personality and life experience (NOT talking about httyd3 Valka they BUTCHERED her) and I love almost everything about you. Except your cheekbones. On their own, they’re fine. But when you bring attempting to draw you for like, the first time in a few months.

VALKA.

WHAT THE FUCK.

WHEN I TELL YOU I SPENT A SOLID FORTY MINUTES CONSTANTLY DELETING AND REDRAWING A FUCKING HEAD BASE FOR HER I MEAN IT. I. MEAN. IT. THIS WOMAN AND HER FACIAL STRUCTURE, YOU TRIANGULAR FUCK (affectionate). TELL ME WHY THE WAY YOUR SKULL IS FORMED MADE ME FORGET HOW TO DRAW??? TELL ME WHY I WAS SAT IN FRONT OF MY PC, GOOGLE OPEN WITH PICTURES OF VALKA, FUCKING SWEATING MY ASS OFF SCRIBBLING ONTO THE STUPID PRO CREATE CANVAS BECAUSE I WAS UNABLE TO COMPREHEND HOW YOUR JAW IS SO FUCKING POINTED. GIRL YOU COULD SLICE SOMEONE OPEN WITH THAT CHIN.

Genuinely think I had several mental breakdowns trying to draw her and I very nearly gave up but boom. Final results. But I did end up giving her only moderately high cheekbones because oh my god my brain is fried.

Hiccup Haddock that you for not inheriting those stupid fucking genes🙏

[theforgottengreatpoem]

Who are you? The Dragon Thief? Drago Bludvist?

[worldwhightnight]

Valka shows Drago how dragon mother grieves for her child. Fire, blood and iron 🔥🔥🔥

[iamafule]

Yet another reason to hate the hidden world

In the second movie Valka had eyebags and wrinkles. In the third she looked like a Victoria's secret model

THATS NOT THE SAME PERSON

TOOTHLESS WHAT A CUTIE

[neztune]

“I try not to post late…” I’m a liar. I know I’m most productive with creative stuff at night, and I’m out here about to act like I’m getting all the good ideas early

Anyway!

I have been… so obsessed with runaway Hiccup fics

So I’ve been working on planning my own 😋 So I have a few doodles for the idea! Nothing too big… just the lil ideas (Gotta have a whole bunch of paternal angst, with Valka included this time… I have such a hard time finding fics with her)
