A birthday present for my bestie!

And they’ll remain forever as guardians of Berk
Art is made by me. Had to practice a canon art style a bit
Also a Halloween art! 🎃

Before anyone asks, I'm a fan of both, and I think HTTYD is one of the few franchises, in my opinion, that could surpass my praise of Avatar films.

Why do I think Toothless could top Toruk Makto?

Let's just say in the 2020s decade, the Avatar Legends community (not ATLA nostalgia grifters) who loved Korra for healthy native rep with an esoteric journey got a nasty reaction to the Avatar sequels, especially those who understood the controversy from THOSE films when they came out.

Inktober day 9: Ram This is why there's a RAM shortage... It all makes sense now. At least AI isn't getting any xD Been forever since I've drawn Toothless. Feels like coming home to an old friend ❤️

Character belongs to Umcypapa

Now he looks a lot different than usual

back from the dead once again 💪

Yup, I've made Thunder a half-Skrill. He also has gotten backstory and some dark-blue hue (In Legends of the Nine Realms, last and best HTTYD video game, there are 4 kinds of normal Skrills: basic ones, Spitters [yellow hue, spit far more lightning, weaker muscles], Protectors [weak physically healers, with blue hue] and Alphas [basically elders].)

Backstory: Thunder's mother had a love affair with some Skrill Protector, but he left her (since Skrills don't mate for life, most surely), and she somehow managed to mate with son of the King of the Hidden World, all of this before Tom's dragon hatched. Thunder lived with his family unknowing of his tempestuous ancestry, until some crazed titan wing Skrill obsessed with glorious death raided King's Realm and splitted whole family. In pursuit of returning home, he ends up a bit too close to the surface and under rocks, and is discovered and uncovered by Tom.

What do you think about it?

I based my redesign on real-life Microraptor, hence all limbs being wings. I'll use it in the fanfiction I'm making.

I took the best photo I could with mine quite old phone, sorry if it's poor quality.

Any constructive feedback welcome and pleased!

In the second movie we were introduced to the Leviathan Scaling (really offhandedly tbh, it was probably just made so they could have fishlegs yell "THAT IS A CLASS TEN! CLASS TEN!" for the dramatic effect) only for it to seemingly never be mentioned again (which makes sense given the out of universe reason I just theorized in the other bracket) except that's not fully true, it gets mentioned a few more times on external media (granted one of them might just be coincidence), and have a theory on what it actually is in universe.

We all know the Scale was first introduced in the second movie, and that the Bewilderbeast is a class 10 Leviathan. According to the old Dragonpedia website, that phrase, or at least part of it, is equivalent to "Titanwing" (see image 1). Now there's two possibilities here, either "Leviathan" in general is equivalent to "Titanwing" or specifically "Class 10 Leviathan".

Now in the concept art for the Krayfin, we see how only the largest growth stage is labeled with "Leviathan" (see image 2), which implies the first possibility is the accurate one (of course this could just be a coincidence but for the purposes of this headcanon/theory/whatever I'll assume it's not because it's my headcanon/theory and I can do that). Which makes it seem like "Leviathan" is the aquatic equivalent to "Titanwing".

So, with that, I believe that after encountering the Purple Death, Ripwrecker, Submaripper, Shellfire and probably some other huge sea dragon I'm forgetting, the riders realize that tidal class titanwings vary too greatly in size to refer to all of them as the same thing (of course there's giant dragons in other classes too but tidal class has far more than the others combined) and so they invented the Leviathan Scaling, where any aquatic Titanwing can be referred to as a Leviathan, with the class specifying how large/old it actually is.

So for example, a Scauldron Titanwing might be a class 1 Leviathan, a Submaripper maybe be a class 3 or 4, Shellfire somewhere around a 6 and the Bewilderbeast and Purple Death class 10.
