Description
So I had the hugest honor to be able to color one of the talented *AvannaK 's HTTYD lineart. I was going to do it in coloring pencils, because I felt like I was failing at digital color, but then lo and behold, I tried my hand at the ol' tablet and got in the swing of it!! I just loved doing the faces. So inspiring.
So, I want to give a HUGE thank-you to *AvannaK for letting me do this!! 
Oh and I know you're not the biggest hiccstrid shipper so WHOOPS

This is so lovely! I love the glow about them highlighting the shadows and how you added little details like to Astrid's headband (good call) and their shoulder pads. Thank you so much for coloring it 
Also, I love the little signature you added at the top.
