Description For and for those who haven't read the book yet.

When I listened to the audiobook for HTTYD, I was surprised to find out that I liked Hiccup's voice better with David Tennant's VA. ^_^ I was inspired to speedpaint an event from each chapter of the book when I was looking through 's gallery, which is, by the way, totally awesome and worth looking at.

I've stumbled across an art block which I'm trying to get away from, and working on this picture certainly helped quite a bit. I'm planning to do the rest of the chapters (there's 19 total) to hopefully, completely cure the block, so expect more in the near future. XD

It was an entertaining to read--I mean, to listen, and I've listened to the whole book for the 3rd time. Now I can honestly say that I love the book as much as the movie. Even though they're both really different in terms of plot and some of the characters, they each have their own special contribution that adds a new dimension to the heart of the story.

Does the old piano still work? If you could bring that I would be so happy.

A lot of the pianokeys are out of order. I think it still may be sitting in our garage.

*Embraces fellow book lover!*
These look wonderful, I like your interpretation of Fishlegs.
And the one of Hiccup reading "How to Train Your Dragon" in total disbelief at it's brevity is adorable!
Can't wait to see what you make out of "How to be a Pirate"

tribute27 In reply to Iceway [2010-06-26 14:55:53 +0000 UTC]

I'm glad you can.

My sister ordered the artbook for me and it was due at the end of April or the beginning of May. And for Thor's sake, I received it arrived at the very end of May.

Cummon Amazon, you can do better than that! -.-

I'm certain that you'll enjoy the book thoroughly--the artwork done by Nico and the backgrounds are simply gorgeous.

Yeah, they're pretty cute! They are a must-read for any decent HTTYD fan, but they are a lot different than the movie. Hiccup is a lot younger, and everyone has dragons as pets.

I've read the first book, but I've yet to read the rest of them. I'm going on a long trip soon, so maybe I should buy the audiobooks. David Tennant's voice is certainly a good incentive. c:

I still hope to buy the books themselves, but between everything else I have to read for school, it may be easiest to have something I can listen to on the go.
