Been a hot minute.
Let me just start out by saying I love this fandom and this community. I’ve met some lovely people here, I’ve been able to talk about and share characters and things from a show and series that will always be very important to me.
It’s not without its downsides though. In recent weeks I’ve seen so many people I’ve gotten to know here leave this site, and even fandom as a whole due to… toxicity, basically. Even my husband had enough of this site and deactivated his entire account. I’d be lying if I said that wasn’t part of the reason I had to take a break myself. Him leaving the community because of all the useless problems left me feeling if there was even a point to stay myself.
But there is. I’m gonna keep it short. But I wanna thank everyone in this community who’s still here on tumblr. Thank you for being so lovely. Thank you for sticking through it, and you’re all amazing. I’ve stepped away and found the inspiration to come back. I plan on doing whatever I can on this blog to spread a little positivity and sunshine within this small corner of the fandom the best I can.
Keep chugging on guys. Keep smiling. Love ya’ll. 💖

casa tidmouth celebrates its one year anniversary..... 2 days ago! but hey, it's the thought that matters! thank you very much for everything -- the support, the fanarts, the asks..... I truly appreciate them all!!!
truth to be told, when I first started this blog, I never thought it would grow to such lengths like this. I wasn't good at drawing engines (and I still am. but hey at least I'm learning! >:]) so what did I draw first? the engines as pokemon for my old pmd AU XD it was what started everything, but then I tried my hand at turning the engines into humans and voila. casa tidmouth is born. I grew alongside it, developed the story and characters as time went by, and garnered an audience, even friends!

(they'll be back. if the public demands. someday.)
I'm eternally grateful to those who stuck around this entire year. I know I'll be busier than ever as I'm starting med school and life will get tougher from here on out, but knowing that I have people who got my back uplifts me. thank you for support!
and look!!!! in a year, we managed to reach 850 followers! and it's all thanks to you! I hope you look forward to what this blog will bring in the future!

wanna know a fun fact? the reason why I revisited this childhood show of mine is because the twitter account sexymanotd posted a pic of duck the great western engine. then I talked about it in my priv, then a friend sent a couple of gijinkas from various people (mainly asktrio156). I decided to look more into it in tumblr….. the rest is history!

I had a choice between two ideas. One: I draw these two meeting for the first time, underwater or Two: I draw these two dads wearing sunglasses and being cool bois. I chose sunglasses. 💙😎
Ice fighter dad belongs to me ( @sodor-spirit )

Hey I just say i love your art work especially in your asktrio156 blog you have inspired me to create my own characters, I know some people are more sensitive about it ( like me ). I have a strange feisty and With this art piece I made i put a lot of hard work and thought into it. two questions i wanted to ask is have you ever been blocked by someone who hated your art piece? And how do you cope with it?
Hi! First of all thank you so much 😭❤️❤️❤️
I have been blocked ONCE by someone, but it wasn’t because they didn’t like my art. They actually stole my art and reposted it without credit or permission on their Instagram, and used it as a profile icon.
Long story short, after I asked them to change the profile picture and take down all the stolen art (I did it politely, I have receipts, it’s a post on @asktrio516 ) they had the balls to block me and then go on a rant and tag me in a meme named ‘tag someone you hate’, giving the reason that I asked them more than once to change their profile picture and take down art they fucking stole 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
But yeah. That’s the only time I’ve been blocked, otherwise i keep my nose pretty clean. I don’t really draw or post controversial stuff apart from my mermaids which I REFUSE to censor because reasons I won’t go into here~
If someone blocks you because they don’t like your art, fuck em. Don’t let it get to you or get upset. They have a preference and don’t wanna see your stuff, and if they wanna be bitchy about it, it’s not your problem. There’s gonna be more people who love and support your art, best not to focus on the few shitty people ❤️

do you headcanon that any of the engines have autism, adhd, anxiety, depression, dyslexia or any neurodivergent condition?
…ok so
This is a very sensitive topic for a lot of people, especially in today’s social climate. I’m not a stranger when it comes to this, my brother is on the autistic spectrum and I’ve gone through clinically diagnosed depression, and while I’m still waiting for a diagnosis I’m 420% sure I’ve got ADHD.
However, I’m not well versed in these conditions, in mental health in general and I prefer not to make a mistake or misrepresent something and end up getting cancelled for it or worse hurting someone. While I seriously believe representation is incredibly important, I don’t feel like I know enough to do that properly so I don’t want to risk it.
I also don’t really like it when a character’s entire personality and design is boiled down to literally one single part of it, and I have a feeling if I start focusing on giving my iterations of these characters conditions, people will not see anything else. They are also conditions, things most people probably don’t want to live with and are challenges. Not things you want to deal with. I know that’s the case for me and my brother. So I don’t feel like it’s necessary to start labelling my engines as various conditions. I have also been treated quite badly by someone I call a good friend, and they’ve always blamed their poor mental health and anxiety for treating me like absolute shit. While I’m nothing but understanding for her condition, it didn’t feel right to have to soak it all up and be called horrible things over nothing at all, only to be told ‘it’s just anxiety.’
If anyone feels like they want to head canon it for my designs, that’s perfectly fine. I’d just rather not focus on it for the reasons I’ve explained. Anyone who has these things as HCs for their characters, are completely valid. I have mad respect for anyone who goes through any one of these mental health conditions, it’s not easy and it’s not a joke.

If you had a bad day and you were "down in the dumps", who would brighten up your day and make the rest of the day better??
We all know the answer to that one.

How long does a normal humanized ttte drawing take?
I struggle with rushing my art a lot,so I’m just wondering
Depends on what kind of drawing it is, how detailed I’m making it, if it’s a sketch or a fully outlined piece, if it’s a reference sheet which has to be decently detailed, what software/device/tools I’m using, if I’m distracted by shit while drawing or if my fat ass decides to break and get food…
Depends on a lot of things. Usually a messy coloured sketch takes me anywhere from 30 mins to an hour, anything more detailed than that is at least an hour or longer.
Best advice I can give is don’t rush and enjoy it. Art takes time and art you can be proud of takes twice that. You won’t get any better, or enjoy it if you rush 😁

I'm curious- About what time period does this blog take place in (assuming there's any specific time at all)?
I'm curious if it's the 50's/60's like the regular series, or something closer to modern day? :o
I guess it takes place throughout the TV series. All the engines are of course not human and therefore don’t age they same way a person would.
In the 1800’s Lady was discovered and woken up. With her reawakened, she produces Dust which turns the locomotives and some machines on Sodor into the soulful, living ‘beings’ we know of. That’s all backstory of course.
So I’d say the Sodor516 AU starts around 1920-30s when Thomas first comes to Sodor, and goes on through to modern day. Most of my current posts are most likely based around present day going’s on, focusing on the last most recent 5 years or so.
I’m terrible with writing actual timelines and plot threads, which is why I married @captsharkb8 who can literally come up with them on the spot. I rely on him for those 😂 I’m trying to more or less compile various things in my Sodor516 AU but it does (more or less) follow the show’s points, especially the first 7 seasons.

You can make a Reference Sheet for Elizabeth the Vintage Lorry
I can indeed. But I’ve got diesels to get through first.

Is Duck the only one you simp for, or is there any other victi- i mean characters that you adore at the same level or at least almost?
I have quite a few favourites like James, Thomas, The Bees, the Twins, Duncan and Edward, but no. I love them all as characters but none of them come close.
Except Levi because I’m bias but yeah

First of all - thank you to every single one of you for still being around and showing this blog support .
I’ve been a little quiet lately, and unfortunately I couldn’t continue doing as much of the Halloween Thomas and Friends prompts as I wanted to, I haven’t been able to draw much at all. I’m gonna finish the first 12 days then sketch the rest. At some point I’ll come back to finish them 👻
Me and @capt-shrkb8 are going through some major life changes which are 7 years in the making and this whole month was spent trying to figure it all out in time for November, so between my crazy work schedule and that, drawing has been near impossible.
I’m still around tho, not gonna be taking any insane hiatus again (•̀ᴗ•́)و TTTE for life bby
I apologise for not answering any private messages or if I’ve missed any tags- I’ll make sure to check everything as soon as I can.
Love y’all ❤️❤️❤️
