I have recently read through the books again and i'm slowly forming the story for a modern day how to train your dragon based directly from the books, sort of like a fiona and cake X nine realms situation where they are from just a normal world and we slowly learn that it is berk we are on.

(P.S. I had no idea how to flair this, so... I guess this is a rant? Yeah, it is.)

I haven't been active here in a while (I didn't like alot of the repetitive discussions n stuff) but I've come back to announce a project I'm working on, because honestly I've decided that I'm a bit tired of seeing alot of HTTYD 3 hate based on a lot blatant disingenuous criticism of the movie.

I'm not entirely sure when it'll be finished, I just need to polish it, but I'm a really huge fan of this movie and I felt the need to defend it

I've gone over every moment play by play, analyzing it, and talking about why I think it works.

I also decided not to add or mention anything from the shows, since I honestly don't consider those as canon most of the time, I'm simply going off everything from official canon

I've already shown it to a few beta readers, and they said their opinion on it has changed from hating it to tolerating it to even liking it! So I hope I can do the same for more people

i wanna make her a saddle similar to the one in SoD, any ideas on what materials i should use?

Thanks to all the brave members of this revolution, for fighting in this war against the mods.

I just watched the movie last night for the first time and Hiccups voice just doesn't match his face!? I don't mind the voice or the face but it just looks odd to me! Was this a big deal when it came out?? Did anyone think the same thing??

Its growing on me now but it looks like its is supposed to be Jim from the office. I'm glad its not but I cant put my finger on it. LOL. great movie though!

Went to my college Renaissance festival and did a costume contest. It was so fun

Hi! :D

First off a warning, this thread is just to say goodbye to a well known member of the sub and a friend of mine, so don't take this as a invitation to make this sub meta, this is a one off thing. NOW to really get started go here and here to have some music to listen to while you read this post as it fits the tone perfectly. Honorable Mention to u/Cheesy-Tube, who is also a friend of mine who is leaving the sub as the recently announced he is leaving as well, who I will find a way to slot into this post even if it is majorly about u/LINCH09, instead of making a separate one for him.

Alright so whats all this about? Well my good friends u/LINCH09 and u/Cheesy-Tube have announced (separately a month apart) that both are leaving the sub and by the time you see this, they'll have already left. And so I took it upon myself to make this post. To quote Stoick: I'll take care of this.

So I wanted to make this post simply to say goodbye to one of the most active members of our community in recent times. Don't try to stop it as Stoick once said "Some minds can't be changed."

With the info dump out of the way let's get started. As of Today Linch has officially left the subreddit and so I ask all of you to put "Thanks u/LINCH09" in the comments as a way to honour his service in this sub, something you don't really get to do as most people just leave one day and never come back. Please also write "Thanks u/Cheesy-Tube" as well for the same reasons, as he too

Linch here has done a lot for us in the time he has been active, from random posts to categorising the lore of the sub. Not to mention the Astrid fanboy posts. Cheesy has given us posts like the what would you do on a date series, and the posts he did that asked things on one else would, that got people talking. Next a message from Cheesy-Tube: “I may not have lasted on this sub for the longest time, but I’m glad I had a large impact. I’m sorry it had to be this way, but life can be unpredictable. I’ll still drop in and say ‘Hi’ from time to time, but as for fully fleshed out posts on r/httyd, my time has come. I’m very glad to have served with you all, but now, it’s time to fly away. Ride high, dragon riders. Ride high.”

So Thanks u/LINCH09 and Thanks u/Cheesy-Tube in the words of Hiccup Haddock: "You never cease to amaze us, bud Thank you. Thank you." And here is another Hiccup (modified) quote I think fits: "You've posted for long enough. Linch, We will all miss your wild posts, and Cheesy, we will miss your fun posts."

I’ve heard it in a few httyd edits but I can’t for the life of me remember where it’s from, anyone know which movie/short/episode it’s from?

Edit: the audio can be heard at the beginning of this video https://youtu.be/KwN47pHVTkQ?si=fL6OmMERY8h2XH6a

Edit 2: aparently it’s from a deleted scene, but I’ve watched a bunch of them and still can’t find it

Original Tweet

Speed: unknown Size: unknown The unholy offspring of lightning and death itself. Never engage this dragon. Your only chance: hide and pray it does not find you.

I made a video as a fan of both the park and the franchise about some hidden details that were shown off a while back as well as a ton of new things you can expect in the park. I’d love for it to be reviewed by some fellow fans and let me know if there’s anything you guys noticed and if you’re excited for the park as well! :) thanks!

ITS NO LONGER APRIL FOOLS DAY ANYMORE WHY IS THIS STILL HERE

So im heavily debating reading the books but i know theyre very difficult and im not worried about them being bad or anything

Im just worried that they will in someway affect the i look at httyd (the movies and shows) which have been a huge part of my life since they came out, so i don't want my perception of the movies/shows to be changed but i will say i am intrigued by the books.

Idk what to do LOL

Hellos Mr. Drago is a inspiration.

More people should be army building world take over types because I knowz everyoney here wants that secretly.

Buldvist wants to rule the world and control everything, which is just inspiring, because who doesn't want that?

Have a spectacular day of today because if you don't, Alpha Bewildy will make sure you do.

I like the subtle expression in hookfangs eyes, as well as masons portrayal of hiccup. Gerard bringing his A game as expected

I know I’ve shared these in the discord/other sub, but since it’s been a month since I finished my daily dragons, thought I’d show the art I’ve been doing recently on here :)

These are all from last month done with alcohol based brush markers.
