Wanted to share some pictures that I've taken of some of my HTTYD figures over the years. All the figures shown are official, with some having repaints, except the Lego Bewilderbeast which is a custom build that I made.
On a related side note, I don't know if it's just me, but I really wish there were 6 inch aka 1/12 scale nicely articulated figures of the Hiccup, Astrid, and the other major humans.
Got the HTTYD 3 armored Hiccup figure and repainted him. I added the red patches on his helmet, put a dark gray on the lowest part of his shoulder pads, belt, around the eye sockets, and pants, and lastly did a subtle drybrush of a dark gray-navy-black over the scale part of the armor. I also painted his peg leg and Inferno's hilt gray, before going over them with silver, and put a light coat of orange over Inferno's blade to make it look more like fire.
On an aside note, while painting this figure, I realized that Hiccup's dragonscale armor has some resemblance to the armors worn by two of the Nazgul from when they appear in the third Hobbit movie at Dol Guldur. I doubt the similarities were intentional, but I thought it would be fun sharing nonetheless.
Got this Stormfly figure on eBay because I liked the sculpt, and repainted her to give her a more accurate look. Easily the longest and most rewarding repaint that I've done of a figure ever. I left out the gold trim around the blue patches on the wings partly since I wasn't sure how much of the blue and/or purplish-red would be covered up, and because I didn't feel like putting gold trim around every single scale on each wing. I might do it in the future though.
Enjoy :)

Thought that it would be fun to make a list of all the crazy things that the Twins are knowledgeable in. Feel free to comment any that I missed, since it has been a while since I've seen ROB/DOB and the shorts, but I'm fresh off a RTTE rewatch.
Hope people get a laugh reading this and enjoy
Got one of the mini Bewilderbeast figure from the HTTYD 2 toyline and repainted it. The Bewilderbeast originally had the color scheme of Drago's Bewilderbeast, but since I like the colors(and characters) of the White Bewilderbeast and the Berserker Bewilderbeast far more, I gave the mini that color scheme. In the future, I might get a second one, leave it as Drago's Bewilderbeast and give it a more accurate paint scheme.
Wanted to share this repaint that I did of the main HTTYD 2 Hiccup figure. I painted his sleeves, the part of his flightsuit that's on the legs, the buckles, bracers, and the Nadder patch on his chest strap, plus Inferno's hit. I also painted over the eyes with green, then painted back on the pupils, which was really challenging considering his head is about the size of a thumb fingernail.
Got the figure of Astrid in her dragonscale armor from HTTYD 3, and found the colors off, so I repainted it. The blue was darkened, with a faint purple wash and light blue dry-brush added. Most of the gold was repainted to be tan, while the parts that are dyed leather were changed to a greenish-blue, painted the belts on her forearm bracers, and put silver on the skull pins. I also put some metallic silver on the axe and painted in the light blue and pink fabric straps.
