I realized that I never posted this art piece of Rusty on this site before, so I thought it would be a good time to do so. 👷🏽🚧🚋 #thomasthetankengine #ttte #timsart #fanart

(P.S. I made time lapse video if y'all are interested. ⬇️📽️🎨)

* i want to try work on more of the revamped sprite edits before i post the full sheets, but here's some of the ones i've done so far (with of course credit to lovely princess-muff for her lovely sprites!)

A sprite edit of Percy the Small Engine. He is in pre-Sodor condition, and is wearing one of Avonside's livery. He is in a bright green, with black and yelling lining, red side-rods, and red frames.

Sprite edits of Toby the Tram Engine and Henrietta the Old Carriage. They are both wearing the Great Eastern Railway's maroon livery with white roofs and sideplates, and have their Great Eastern markings and numberings on them.

A sprite edit of Emily the Single Engine, in her current day condition. She has been rebuilt to sport many Ivatt fittings, such as a dome, a covered cab (with her whistled moved on top to match), and a smaller tender. She has red valances too. A number twelve is painted on Emily's tender.

Sprite edits of "Sudrian Sea", with all three known alters in their various liveries. "Sudrian Sea" are a singular tank engine, with three different alters. Their nameplate reads "Sudrian Sea", and their numberplate reads 23.
The first row depicts Arle, painted in maroon, with red siderods, and additional lining on her running board's boxes.
The second row depicts Els, painted in North Western green with red lining. Xer lining is simpler, more akin to Percy's.
The final row depicts Sulby, in their magenta livery with black and white lining. They have black outlines around their lining too, making them appear more regal in comparsion to their fellow alters.

Each alter has a set of lamps matching their respective liveries.

So an interesting piece of information I got from Sam Wilkinson during my exhibition slot at AE5

"Conrad's Bridge" was apparently the production name used for the Castle Tunnel from S3; I'm unsure how this factors into "Tidmouth Tunnel", which is also marked separately on the map

* transitioning engines, given fresh coats of paint (older edits above, new ones below)

A comparsion of an old and new sprite art. The original sprites were both made by Princess-Muff.

The top image depicts the old version of Thomas the Tank Engine, in his "Adventure Begins" green paintwork, upon arriving on Sodor. He has black wheels, a black bufferbeam, and curved cab lining.
The bottom image depicts Thomas in the same colours, but with an updated sprite. He now sports green wheels, a red bufferbeam, square cab lining and more a more vibrant shade of green.

A comparsion of an old and new sprite art. The original sprites were both made by Princess-Muff.

The top image depicts the old version of Edward the Blue Engine, in William Middleton blue, upon arriving on Sodor. He has yellow boiler bands, and blue wheels.
The bottom image depicts Edward in the same colours, but with an updated sprite. He now has a more vibrant, but darker shade of blue, brass boiler bands, and black wheels. His face is also more solemn compared to the top sprite.

A comparsion of an old and new sprite art. The original sprites were both made by Princess-Muff. The wheels on the top sprite came from Max the Modelling Dude.

The top image depicts the old version of Thomas the Tank Engine, in Broomstick Blue, as seen during the 40s. He has a muted shade of teal, a curved running board, and a simple safety valve.
The bottom image depicts Thomas in the same colours, but with an updated sprite. He now has a more vibrant teal, his current flat running board, a red fitting on his safety valve, and different proportions. His crew is also slightly different, now with Mr. Perkins as his driver.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Isra. Isra is a journalist in Gaza who has worked for 14 years with a lot of international experience (she is fluent in Spanish). She was also working on a PhD. She lost her father, home, work and university. She’s trying to help her family ❤️
