IG it’s an au now- STARLIGHT!HttyD AU (the dragon riders)

Ok so- I’ve decided that this will be an au! Like the previous posts I’ve made: this is a canon divergent story, the story taking place a few months after HTTYD 2 and as a result THW is retconned.

I wanted to make my version of the riders because they lowkey looked super dumb in THW (especially snotlout) but I loved the concept art. So I combined their httyd 2 design with THW concept art! It’s a 3d animated movie- let them have slightly more fun designs that wasn’t just- snotlout becoming a ketchup bottle and fishlegs gaining a utility belt-

Who changed the least?: Astrid because i actually liked her outfit In THW it was just- really complicated to continue to draw in my art style- so i simplified it- Who changed the most: either fishlegs (mostly added stuff because he was BLAND) or snotlout because I completely changed his design from THW design- I hated the red I’m sorry- he stood out more against hookfang when he wore green- he does have more reddish browns though to call back to the ketchup fit.

For anyone asking why snotlout has so many scars: this au is acknowledging that RTTE did happen, along with the other shows. That’s why he has the lightning scar, and realistically he’s with a dragon that sets itself on fire while snotlout is still on him.. snotlout is gonna get burnt- the eye thing is to help explain why he’s so clumsy and uncoordinated at times. (Hookfang is not bad- snotlout does NOT blame hookfang for these injuries- imagine it’s like getting scratched by ur pet cat/animal with claws. It just happens sometimes.)

Feel free to ask any questions about them! I’m always open to share!
