Description

-Name: Gordon the Big Engine

-Basis: LNER "A0" Prototype that would become an LNER A1/A3 4-6-2 Tender Engine, but with an LNER B1 Tender

-Built Date: 1922

-Arrived on Sodor: 1923

-Number: 4

-Railway: Northwestern Railway; Great Northern Railway (Formerly)

-Affiliations: Northwestern Railway, Main Line, Tidmouth Sheds, the Wild Nor' Wester, Barrow n’ Furness, National Railway Museum, Sir Topham Hatt, Original 7 Engines, General William Snow, Queen Elizabeth II

-Gender: Male

-Bio: Gordon is the biggest of the original main engines, a very well-respected character, and for good reason to. He is a very fast and powerful LNER Pacific locomotive built by the great Sir Nigel Gresley that is in charge pulling the express known as the “Wild Nor’ Wester” along the Main Line. However, this position has made Gordon very pompous, proud, arrogant, and very opinionated, as he used to look down on the smaller or older engines, and would stubbornly try to get out of jobs he’d consider beneath him, but his arrogant and grumpy behavior would get him into trouble numerous times. But over the years, he’s learned from these trials and tribulations, and while occasionally pompous and stubborn, has gradually matured into a wise, good-hearted, diplomatic and honorable locomotive that is proud to be part of the Fat Controller’s engine family. He always enjoys a nice long run with the express, and never hesitates to help his fellow engines with his superior strength, as those are the traits worthy of being respectable, honorable, and exemplary engine.

-Artist's Commentary: So here's Gordon, and I will say the only updates I've made was cab handrails, new decals on his tender like the tail lamp, handrail, and fillet cap. I would've drawn a ladder on the tender, but last time I did, it didn't feel right. I also would like to point two other things I forgot to mention as well; unlike other sprites, I made the fact on the side blank, as last time I tried to get the facial features in, it looked so ridiculous when squished. I know I haven't down a back side, but I wanted to do the front and side mostly. Eventually I might, but who knows. Take care guys!

-UPDATE (2/6/2020): I gave him a proper undercarriage in the front.
