About Alicorn Twilight (and Recent comments)
Well, here's the scoop-
Get used to it, because she's here to stay. And not just in the show.
We're introducing the updated version of season three's Twilight Sparkle into the comics as well.
We're asked about 5th person at our tables: "what do you think?" "Why did they do that?" "Are you gonna.." etc.
Since we work hand in hand with Hasbro, we never had any intention of NOT updating Twilight for the books as well.
And quite frankly... we are all about it!

Seems like a lot of things happened since my last post. Maybe that's because it was almost five months between journal entries and three months between submitting art. Who's counting?
The biggest thing by far for this hole in the wall on DeviantArt was my being invited to join a group. MLP:FiM Fan Artists thought I was cool enough for them to hang out, so I came aboard!

I have come out from under the burden of obligation and am now free to continue exploring illustrations that I am inspired to put to paper.
I will never again agree to draw anything for someone that asks with nothing in return. Any future "You owe me a drawing 'cause you said so" will be denied. This last one killed what was a rolling motivation to do what I really enjoy and feel good about it. No more.

There has been nothing I would have liked more than to finish and post something new here on my page for the last few months. But try as I might this latest piece I've been trying has me in the doldrums with no wind left in my sails. I remember now why I stopped taking requests from friends to draw something for them. The worst part is it's not even Pony related.
I've effectively killed my inspiration to draw by not having a statute of limitations on my request agreements. I think now that 7 years should be too long a time for someone to call in a "You still owe me a drawing" based on passing conversation and no currency or favors exchanged.
