Thwaryes The Ivatt Engine

Hello Everyone, Merry December all. Just wanted to do a quick update on everything happening down my end.

So good news on the Chris Awdry books, I've fully completed the first book, however, they won't be coming out yet. I need to my motivation back on track to complete the books, and right now, it's not here, and I want something that will be released weekly, not to mention, I'm using a lot more mediums outside of the pictures and the classic era, I'm starting to use Trainz and the Hit era for clips, as you'll see in Stop Thief and Triple Header, so trying to find all the correct models to use will be tricky, so the Railway Series is still happening, but not in the near future.

Something that is happening soon though is my adaptation of the Buried Truck story 'The Flying Scots'. It's not my best work, but it's a start. And if it goes well enough, I'll start working on more fan original stories. speaking of Original Stories.


The Numbered has already begun production on the next episode. Script has been put made, being sent to the cast, and am waiting for recordings in the meantime. This is just gonna be on the backburner until everything is ready to be filmed, but it has begun.

That's all for now, hope y'all enjoy your days

Hey everyone, Thwaryes here.

First, I just want to say that no, the channel is not dead. It's just currently in hiatus mode for a little bit. And the reason for being on hiatus is because I'm working on my videos for the 40th anniversary of the TV show. It's been a bit on and off while real life happens, but thankfully, these next 2 months will solely be focused on this project. Well, when I say project, I technically mean 7 projects.

I'm doing what I call "A Week of Thomas". In other words, starting on the 9th of October there will be 7 videos over the course of the following week doing things related to the show. There have been a few changes to the videos in question, mainly due to time and commitment, but rest assured, there will be 7 videos.

Now, you might be wondering what they are. So let me share with you those videos.

1. TWR Recreation of Thomas and Gordon: Fairly simple here, I will be using the Thomas Wooden Railway stuff to recreate the first ever episode of the show. Filming has been completed, and the only thing left to do is record my lines.

2. Number Zero: The third instalment of The Numbered AU that I started back in 2022. This one will focus on a divisive fan character in the fandom, but being the idiot I am, it's being changed. I'm just waiting for a narrator before I can begin editing.

3. The Full Model Series Timeline: I decided to look through every single episode and create my own timeline of events, unlike TUT who just went over the important stuff (Original, I know). This is the only video to be completed as of writing this.

4. My cover of the Thomas main theme: Self Explanatory. Editing has not started

5. Series 13 in a Nutshell: Yes, it is coming back. Why during the 40th anniversary? Cause it's apart of the TV show as well, so might as well do it. Editing is currently in progress as I write this

6. Why I love Thomas and Friends: This is a more introspective video about my history with the show and why I love it so much. Work has not started on it

7. Series 1 Ranked: An unoriginal idea being used on a YouTube channel? How original. But yes, I will be giving my ranking on Series 1. Prepare to be surprised by some of the placements. Work has not started on it

And that covers everything I'm planning. As for starting on Chris' books, that's a story for another day.

Sorry for the wall of text, but I wanted to let you guys know what I'm up to. I hope you have a good day, and I'll see you all later.

Regards,
Thwaryes the Ivatt Engine

tl;dr plans for 40th anniversary are why nothing has been posted

Hi everyone,

So 500 of you guys subscribed to me. Wow, thanks.

I do have a celebration thing planned, problem is, it's only at the planning stage. So what I'm thinking I might do is make this into two parts: Part one will be a Q&A (I know, how creative of me). Part two will have you guys involved a lot more.

But for now, let's focus on Part One. Drop your questions below and I will answer all of them, just don't make it too personal or NSFW.

Hi everyone, how's it going?

So not a lot has been posted to the channel lately, aside from the narrations, that's because I'm in the middle of working on the second episode of Thomas and Friends: The Numbered AU that started with my Halloween video last year. I'm currently waiting for the footage to come back to me before I can start editing (and yes, I did commission someone to do it, my laptop is shocking when it comes to Trainz, and I lost my footage thanks to my new phone). While I was waiting for everything to come in, I already began work on the third episode and completed it at the beginning of January. The problem I'm having is the name of the episode, here's why. The engine I'm focusing on is an infamous fan character, aside from Alfred, so there's his number original fan number, but he's head canoned to be the first engine to be built by the Crovan's Gate Works, so he'd be number one. So my question is this: Do I just go with the number that he's most known for, or do I want to use the head canon number? The poll below will have the titles that I have in mind

That being said, I love The Numbered. Between this, and a previous somehow blatant SF ripoff (It's on Wattpad and it's called Sodor's Fall), I wholeheartedly believe that I've struck gold when I first wrote Number Four, and I want to continue this little series, because I've still got so many questions that I want to answer. And thanks to The Numbered being a writing exercise, it's giving me ideas on what I want to write, not just for Thomas, but for my other channel as well.

I better sign off now, it's currently midnight by the time I post this. So good night. Don't forget to vote for the title of the third episode below

Hi guys,

So turns out I can do community posts now. I don't know when this change happened, but oh well.

Might do an update seen as thought we're here. So coming this week are two videos: The Deputation, obviously, and my first ever original story for YouTube!! Yup, I've started coming out of my shell and decided to make an original story. It was a bit tough to write, seen as how I had no idea what I was doing, but I managed to make it work in the end. The original story, Which I have aptly titled Number Four, will be coming out on Sunday 30th October at 12pm AEDT (Yes I am Australian, have fun with time zones).

In terms of other stuff for the channel that isn't up yet, here's what's happening: both Book 24, Oliver the Great Western Engine, and Book 26, Tramway Engines, have been recorded and are currently in the editing phase. You guys are probably wondering why I skipped Duke's book, well that's for a later date. Series Four in a nutshell on the other hand hasn't even begun production. All of my time throughout the past month has been focused on Number Four, but I will get to that because I have got ideas for a majority of the episodes already, especially the first four episodes. Other projects that I want to get started are different from all the other projects so far; One BIG project that I'm kinda not working on is what I call "My Two Cents". I won't say anything about it, but I think you guys can get an idea on what that's about. Another smaller project is called "Ivatt Histories and Head Canons", and the reason behind this was that some friends on Twitter were doing these "1 like = 1 head canon" things, so I decided to take it one step further.

That's all the updates for now because I am SUPER tired, work's been a pain on my sleep schedule.
