Drew some stuff relating to My Little Pony : Friendship is Magic.

This week, I am basically a wet towel on the floor while i'm at home and a robot while at work. I only get a half-day off this week due to the fact that i'm trying to balance out school classes and that people at the bookstore need me to come in an extra day. So yeah. This week is going to be heavy. But next week is going to be easier, and mostly empty, so it's all good! Next week will be full of sleeping in late, I can tell you that! I also need to start reconnecting with people slowly. Every time I go hermit because of a project, I kinda stop chatting with people on the phone, in person and on the web. It's normal, considering the project takes up all my time, but I still feel like a jerk for ignoring people for a couple of weeks.

I still generally feel tired and depressed, but whatever, like the rest, it's going to pass. I kinda feel like I did after the university finals. Strange, familiar feeling this is. But pretty much all my stuff for TCAF is ready, Meg takes care of the book editing and I can slowly do commissions. Woo!

I may be overworking myself too much lately. I read a couple of my old entries and they pretty much all go "so tired, can't go on, what the heck?". Either i'm very whiny, or too much of a workaholic. 

I really want to read something good with werewolves in it. Every book I seem to pick up on the theme is terrible. Any one knows some good ones?

I also picked up the graphic novel for "Friends with Boys" and it rocks. Got a copy as a birthday present for my Namesake partner in crime, Meg. Seriously guys, do yourself a favor and check out the online version. It's awesome.

 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.
