Hydra The Hydrogen Tanker - Tumblr Posts

personally if i was alw and i was in charge of making stex more contemporary and relevant to modern audiences i would’ve done this and i think it would’ve worked pretty well

Hi, it's me again with another question!

Who are your top five favorite StEx characters and (if you feel like answering this follow-up) what are your favorites headcanons for each one?

RUSTY AHHHHHHHHHH- IM SO SO SO NORMAL ABOUT RUSTY HE'S MY FAVORITE IM HIS NUMBER ONE FAN HES MY BEST FRIEND I WANT TO LAUNCH HIM INTO SPACE INTO A BLACK HOLE. anyways a hc i have for rusty is a little unrealistic but at least makes sense to me, he actually isn't that old. him being a young steam engine is actually true, he was built in 1960 and is 23 during the events of the show. it's a whole tangent that would make this post way much longer than it probably is LMAO so i might explain that in another post that's not this one XD.

PEARL IM ALSO VERY NORMAL ABOUT PEARL SHES ALSO MY BESTEST FRIEND IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD I LOVE HER VERY MUCH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH- anyways i'm one of the many supporters of pearl being tall (partly because im a tall girl as well) but it just feels right for pearl to be very tall, it's always been something i subscribed to from day 1. also a personal headcanon is that if pearl was a dog, she would be a poodle, specifically pink poodles because she's pink and fancy poodles are always are always pink in cartoons LMAO.

SLICK SLICK SLICK I DIDN'T EXPECT ID LOVE HER SO MUCH ESPECIALLY OVER SUCH A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME BUT IVE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH HER AND WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR HER. a headcanon i like is that slick's motivations for what she does is fueled (WAKA WAKA) by an insecurity she has about being replaced by other forms of fuel, especially when hydra introduces himself to them by saying his gonna replace them, especially when she has to affirm to herself that she's "still quick, still slick" I LOVE THE THEMES ABOUT OBSOLESENCE ALSO EFFECTING THE VILLAINS OF THIS SHOW

I LOVE FLAT TOP VERY MUCH HE'S SUCH A LITTLE SHIT my best headcanon that i have is that flat top actively pays out vandals to give him more graffiti tattoos for him to show off to the other trucks

HYYYYYYDROOOOGEN I LOVE HYDRA I ALSO DIDN'T EXPECT TO LIKE HIM BUT HES SO FUCKING LOVEABLE I CANT NOT LOVE HIM. a headcanon i have (because of a misinterpretation of hydra's character i had before learning more about him) was that he comes off as this shady drug dealer guy trying to get rusty to try out "the stuff" when in reality he's just a vegan with autism (that's not just a human au thing, i think that hydra as a truck is vegan LMAO)

hydra stop being weird challenge (IMPOSSIBLE) (ALMOST DIED) (HE PERFORMED SURGERY????) (NOT CLICKBAIT)

NEW FREIGHT REDESIGNS

i had sm fun redesigning new freight i wasnt a fan of how similar their outfits looked but i really liked the colors they used so i tried to keep the colors but i change them very slightly

i ended up making porter a hopper bc i heard he transports coal and i think it makes sense

also if youre wondering abt the eyes these designs are specifically for my au and i like to design their eyes to kinda match what train they are
