I... really can't think of a title that resumes this.

 Today I had a day off! As mentioned before, for the whole month of March, I took all Fridays off to work on Jabberwocky. So Today, I got up, prepared my stuff for the Geekfest convention that starts tomorrow and drew. While I was drawing, I decided to watch the "My little pony : Friendship is magic" series that yamiloo , earthstar_moon  and many others recommended. 



Damn. I kinda like it. 

I like the designs, I like the animation, I like the voice acting. Kinda like Samurai Jack, Tinkerbell, Avatar or Kim Possible, it's a kid's show that is quite watchable for adults. It was born from the imagination of Lauren Faust, who in addition of being a talented artist is deal model of what a female animator should be. She was also the animator of Sawyer on "Cats don't Dance". 



So yeah... I guess as I blast thru the episodes i'll have to think up of excuses to allow me to admit publicly that I like girly things and children's animation... Oh no, wait. guess that was already out in the open! Dodged a bullet there!

But seriously, it is a good show. It's the type of thing that I would buy on Dvd so that if ever have kids, they can watch it and instead of being annoyed by a bad, low-quality show, i'll be able to watch it with them and enjoy it. At least for the first 10 viewings or so. 

The show is all on youtube (for now), so check it out!

Oh, and have some centaur-rified versions of the ponies. I could not help myself. The only reason why these aren't inked and colored is Jabberwocky.



I've loved centaurs since I was a kid. When I was a kid, I even drew a study about a centaur transfert student (from Greece, of course) and his many adventures with his Canadian friends. Yeah, I was a dork that way.

Anyways!

PONIES!

Okay, back to work for me.

Yes! You will be assimilated!

Seriously, I think this is one of the most enjoyable series on right now, period. It's just well written overall, and I've largely enjoyed pretty much all the episodes. Glad you kinda like it.

Fun drawings. Loving Spike.

NOOOAAAWWWW YOU FIENDS!

I'm surprised I like it so much, but i'm just going to go with it. :D

[roachpatrol.livejournal.com]

Aww, these are cute! I adore that show, and I was thinking about doing centaur ponies toooooo. Centaurs are the coolest thing, and that's really all there is to it!

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Agreed. Let's make a centaur-lovers club.

[earthstar-moon.livejournal.com]

MWHAHAHA! I knew you would catch the pony bug! *evil grin* I've already started to sketch them, they're just fun to draw. I hope they release the episodes on DVD soon.

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Eee! DVDs! I can harass Link with PINK.

But... but where's Applejack? =(

I started watching My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic because I kept seeing Fandom Secrets that said things like "I'm a 20-something manly male, and I love this show." That was enough to convince me to watch it. Hahaha!

I'm kind of hesitant about revealing to my friends that I like the show, though. I mean, my friends already tease me a lot without it! Granted, I'm a really easy target because I react to absolutely everything... but still. =S

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

OH CRAP I FORGOT HER!

Nooooo.

Same here. But then again, my friends like Twilight and I was nice to them despite my "blah" towards the series. so they aren't allowed to poke fun at me.

Oh geez, you just gave me really weird memories of a centaur toy my best friend had. She had a TON of My Little Ponies as well, so when we would play with them, the centaur toy was always something of the social reject. You have to admit, a centaur would look as bizarre to a horse/pony as it does a human!

In other news, a friend once had a centaur monk in a D&D campaign. Most stupidly powerful character ever! o_O

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

*laughing* This is a hilarious childhood tale.

[ichiban-victory.livejournal.com]

I wish I could find what the toy looked like to go with the tale. Well...heck, if you remember back in the early 90s when there were a ton of "cute" toys marketed to girls (the toys all seemed to have an emphasis on large eyes and full eyelashes, and hot pink colors...gah!), you would be on the right track. The toy had her arms sticking straight out on both sides, so it was really pretty silly.

I would draw it, but it's just too horribly girly! It may be best to leave it buried in my memories...

LOL Sawyer XD

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

She lost a fake boob.

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

OK, OK, I give. I might have to actually check this series out, despite my stance on remakes...

And I too love centaurs. Ever since that one scene in Fantasia, I was hooked. Plus, I fangirled Greek and Roman myths since I was a kid.

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Jooooin ussssss.

I think you might actually like this remake. Lauren Faust is your type of gal.

[snapdragon76.livejournal.com]

Yesssss, masterrrrrr....

[spankingfemme.livejournal.com]

Centaurs are bad ass! XD I remember My little Pony back in the day but always thought they were a bit to preppie and selfish for my liking... of course I was more a 'boys' cartoon fan like He-man, Thundercats, and Transformers ;)

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

I watched both :D

(and X-men and justice league)

[spankingfemme.livejournal.com]

Oh yes! LOVED those! =D Don't forget BTAS! XD

[amelia-seyroon.livejournal.com]

I love Cats Don't Dance! :OOOOO!

And centaurs! What do you think of them in the Harry Potter films? =3

Argh, one day I'll have the time to actually start watching My Little Pony. @____@

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

I didn't really like them much in the Potter films. I don't recall why at this moment (I can't even remember what they looked like...). I did like the horses though!

[brendala.livejournal.com]

-My inner toddler: "Omigosh YAY! Ponies!!!"


Agreed on the whole "Lauren Faust is awesome" thing. Cats Don't Dance is one of my favorite movies.

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

It's a pretty underrated movie.

[ilikebigtoes.livejournal.com]

I didn't know Lauren worked on Cars don't dance! Those sketches are awesome xD The baywatch one xDDDD

Yay centaurs! I love your interpretations!

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Centaurs are awesome!

I prefer the rockstar one.

[neocloud9.livejournal.com]

She animated Sawyer? I'd had no idea, how cool! Glad you're getting into the ponies! <3

[secondlina.livejournal.com]

Hehehehe. Now we can all fangirl together.

Aw, your centaur ponies are so cute! Esp, Rarity!
