    Quite like this ad. Gives me a lot of hope towards how it seems the Thomas brand is positioned now. Emphasis on railways, family, visiting places, cozy play. Love the shot of the engines ‘in the yard’. Feel like we’re finally moving on from “THE THRILLS, THE SUSPENSE!!”

    Something so satisfying about how BoCo is able to handle the rails - particularly pleased with how this turned out!! Look at him go!

    The way I loudly and passionately gasped when I saw these at Hobby Lobby

    For starters, I did a display at my school’s art walk again!! I decided to focus on recreating the Crovan’s Gate yards set!! Getting everything done before the show was a push but I’m so proud of how it turned out.
    The past few weeks have been so so hectic but so so worth it. I’ll post more details later, but it’s been an utter blast.

    Happy Tuesday everyone! The next model I'd love to share with you all is my customized DN James! Very pleased with how he turned out :) See more photos of him and the construction process on my website, TheFamousEight.com

    My school had an art walk tonight and I got to display a bunch of my models!!! Here’s a photo of me and the display!! It was beyond cool to see so many people excited about my work. Fulfilling in such an amazing way I can’t describe. I’m so happy I got this opportunity!! :,)

    I think there is something beautiful about how utterly unmarketable BoCo is as a character. He exists purely out of creative and narrative ambitions. So awesome.

    I've been particularly and utterly burnt out on everything Thomas for the past month - something I have not felt in 7+ years - but I am so happy to say we are so back I have the utmost actionable of inspiration right now. Expect things SOON(ish)!
