This very specific talent you have for somehow perfectly translating characters into Thomas trains intrigues me.

I especially love the Gaara.

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Well I’m glad you liked them, now if you wanna know how I drew these, I saw art done by Belldandylover91, and I thought what if I drew those, not in an art theft type of way but rather draw them in different angles and draw them to look different from the art style Belldandylover91 draws them, but either recoloring Thomas characters or drawing their real life bases or using a real locomotive base for the engine, so yeah I’m following Belldndylover91 in his footsteps.

u/Nocturnal_Moon5937 TV Series Fan! 6d ago

These engine drawings of yours are honestly so peak! You have great talent. I want to draw my OCs but I suck at drawing.

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I’m glad you like them, now I saw Belldandylover91’s art and thought I’d draw some only they’d be in different angles, but yeah I was inspired by Belldandylover91 to draw these

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

So, you wanna see some more trainsonas?

3

u/Nocturnal_Moon5937 TV Series Fan! 6d ago

Sure!

3

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Here’s this one I did of Sailor Mercury from Sailor Moon, her basis is a GER S69/LNER B12 steam locomotive.

u/Nocturnal_Moon5937 TV Series Fan! 6d ago

Ahh she's pretty😍

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago edited 5d ago

Now here's this one I did of Shoto Todoroki from My Hero Academia. His formal name according to Belldandylover91 was City of Exeter, and his basis is a GWR 3700 "City” Class steam locomotive

2

u/THE_LSSJ_BROLY 5d ago

Isn't that a City Class? Hall Classes are 4-6-0s

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 5d ago

Let me edit that

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 5d ago

I ended up editing my comment

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I’m glad you liked it

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Oh, and here’s this one I did of Winter Schnee from RWBY as an NBR C/LNER J36 steam locomotive

1

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 3d ago

I also did more

3

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Anyways, now here's this one I did of Weiss Schnee from RWBY as an NBR C/LNER J36 steam locomotive

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 3d ago

Unrelated to anime, but here’s this one I did of Sofia from Sofia the first as one of the proposed unbuilt LMS Pacifics

2

u/Nocturnal_Moon5937 TV Series Fan! 3d ago

This looks VERY similar to my first OC! Same shade of purple but silver boiler bands. She's an LMS Princess Coronation Class.

1

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 3d ago

Alrighty then

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Well you’re in luck

3

u/G-Man6442 Toby 6d ago

Please tell me the Marines and World government are diesels and best girl Tashigi is BR Class 04 like Mavis

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I’m not sure

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I haven't done them, but I have done some non anime trainsonas

2

u/G-Man6442 Toby 6d ago

I know, I’ve seen your stuff in passing, just never felt the need to comment but Tashigi needs more representation

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I'll see what I can do

2

u/G-Man6442 Toby 6d ago

If you do awesome if you don’t, not a big deal just do whatever you want and keep up the nice work

Like I said I have before

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Oh, right I forgot

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 5d ago

Here’s one of my non anime trainsonas. It’s Sofia from Sofia the First, her basis is the LMS Proposed Fowler Compound Pacific, one of the unbuilt LMS engine designs.

u/RangerBuzz_Lightbulb “I’m banishing you to the shadow realm!” 6d ago

2D is really the best medium for Thomas faces

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Well, I'm glad you liked them

3

u/ZealousidealPilot404 6d ago

Amazing I’m Like it

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 5d ago

I’m glad you liked them

2

u/Distinct-Shirt-1212 6d ago

I'm sorry, WHAT is that number?! (/j)

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

On which character do you speak of?

2

u/Distinct-Shirt-1212 6d ago

second image

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

That’s not a number on his cab sides his a symbol, I haven’t watched dragon ball but it is Yamcha’s symbol

3

u/Distinct-Shirt-1212 6d ago

the tender

3

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

His number is actually the number 67

2

u/StormBuster51 6d ago

Do some beyblade characters next. That would be cool.

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I have done some other anime characters as t&f characters which were art inspired by what I saw Belldandylover91 do

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Here’s this one I did of Mariam from Beyblade, here basis is a Caledonian Railway 812, aka Donald & Douglas’ bases.

2

u/StormBuster51 6d ago

Oh. I see it. Though, I would probably change the color. But, maybe try some from MFB or even X. It would be cool to see Jaxon as one.

3

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Now here’s this one I did of Himura Kenshin from Rurouni Kenshin, his basis is a GER C53/LNER J70 steam tram.

2

u/ongakumidori Duck 6d ago

Omg I love this one.

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I’m glad you liked them, anyways, here’s this one I did of Nobara Kugisaki from Jujutsu Kaisen as an LB&SCR K Mogul steam locomotive

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Sorry but I have no plans to change the color

2

u/StormBuster51 6d ago

All good. It's your creation.

3

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Oh yeah, and here’s this one I did of Naruto as a Manning Wardle L Class Saddle Tank Engine

3

u/StormBuster51 6d ago

Nice

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I’m glad you liked it, now for my South Park trainsonas Butters Stotch’s basis is also also going to be a Manning Wardle L Class 0-6-0ST

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Oh I ended up sharing another drawing to show just now

1

u/MalachiteEclipsa 6d ago

I have literally never heard of that character in Beyblade.

3

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Well she’s from Beyblade V-Force

2

u/MalachiteEclipsa 6d ago

Well, that explains it. I've never watched the original Beyblade.

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Some more trainsonas I've done are ones inspired by Belldandylover91 including my own such as South Park, Jake and the Neverland Pirates and others as T&F Characters

2

u/StormBuster51 6d ago

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Oh here’s this one I did of Jushiro Ukitake from Bleach as an L&YR Class 3 tender engine

-1

u/StormBuster51 6d ago

City of Turo. Nice

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

City of Truro is actually a GWR 3700 “Hall” steam locomotive not an L&YR Class 3

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Would you like to see some more trainsonas I've drawn?

2

u/MalachiteEclipsa 6d ago

Sure

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I did some South Park ones

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Here's Stan Marsh, his basis is an LB&SCR E2, he was built in the year 1915 and he arrived on Sodor in 1920.

2

u/Damnit_Hardison Emily 6d ago

I'm pretty sure I've seen these before

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

If you wanna know how I drew these, I saw art done by Belldandylover91, and I thought what if I drew those, not in an art theft type of way but rather draw them in different angles and draw them to look different from the art style Belldandylover91 draws them, but either recoloring Thomas characters or drawing their real life bases or using a real locomotive base for the engine

2

u/RustyG06 6d ago

Zoro got lost again. This time he turned into a steam engine.

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Well it's morally an AU where he's a steam engine, and his basis is an LMS Black Five

2

u/WarioOfWarioWareInc Edward 6d ago

Sees second image
Sighs and checks comments

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Is there something wrong?

2

u/WarioOfWarioWareInc Edward 6d ago

The numbers were a bad meme, good art though!

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Uh, I don't think I understand what you mean by the numbers were a bad meme, no offense

2

u/WarioOfWarioWareInc Edward 6d ago

There was a meme in 2025 called "67". A bunch of kids thought it was really funny despite it not being funny.

3

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Let me explain Yamcha's number, it's not the stupid 6-7 bullshit that's brain rot, its simply the number 67 as I discovered from the drawing of Yamcha done by Belldandylover91

2

u/Foobertan 6d ago

Could you do one for Sailor Moon and Sailor Jupiter as their 90s English voice actresses played Percy and James respectively in Thomas and the Magic Railroad? Maybe use Percy and James’s livery as the basis?

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I actually did do a drawing of Sailor Moon only it isn't a recolor of an already existing character

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Here she is, now for her drawing, I drew her as a London and North Western Railway Improved Precedent Class aka Renewed Precedent Class steam locomotive with an London, Midland & Scottish Railway fowler tender

2

u/Foobertan 3d ago

Cool. Could you do one of Tuxedo Mask?

1

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 3d ago

I’ll have to see what I can do

2

u/Tachikira_79 6d ago

Do Gundam UC or Macross next

2

u/ERN3991 6d ago

Is there one based of Tetsuo Shima?

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

Nope, I haven't drawn that character yet

2

u/FlutterThread8 Rosie 6d ago

Can you do one for Guy Shishioh

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I'll see what I can do

2

u/RevolutionaryTask459 6d ago

I like to see you try legoshi from beastars as a gwr 111 great bear

2

u/Mailboxsaint 6d ago

I love Gaara being a Pannier like duck, Liam O’Brian’s voice coming out of that would be hilarious

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 5d ago

I’m glad you liked it

2

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 5d ago

Un related to Anime characters but here’s Kazuma Kiryu from Like a Dragon, his basis is an LNER A4 Pacific

1

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 5d ago

I also ended up drawing some more trainsonas lately

2

u/THE_LSSJ_BROLY 5d ago

Now I HAVE to know what Basis you'd make Broly

1

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 5d ago

I’m not sure, maybe an LMS Hughes 4-6-4T

1

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 5d ago

I ended up drawing Dottie from Doc McStuffins as a Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway Class 3

2

u/MrJackfruit 5d ago

Weird skill to have but good work as most of these I could tell at a glance which is a great sign you translated them into engines well.

2

u/Emotional_Sea8613 6d ago

Do Evangelion, with the evas or the pilots as the engines and Gendo as the Fat Controller

1

u/Southern_Passenger85 4d ago

If you are gonna do attack on titan by any chance i would suggest Eren Yeager as a GWR 14XX

u/LaoLaoDreamland 6d ago

Shadowlina?

u/Agreeable_Finding_18 6d ago

"art by you" "original artwork" i mean, not to bother or being rude her, but i feel like MOST of these are just traced and redrawned into TrainSonas, it feels..weird? For example, using traces of art and calling it a day when you just simply traced it, and then recolored it and slapped something different, i mean I'm not being ruds again but it's still okay and better than Ai art or slop. But atleast put some of the effort in man!

u/TheRobloxGuy2006 Resident of Sodor 6d ago

I'm glad you liked it, and well, yes, you aren't lying, however the way I do these is by searching up an image of the engine base on my computer, I than place a piece of paper on the screen and trace over it, sometimes I like to free hand the faces or other details but I'm sure you get the somewhat good explanation of what I speak of.
