One of my favourite webcomics I regularly check out is Sandra and Woo. It is funny, witty, and well, it's starring a talking racoon, which is, let's be honest, kinda guarantees something cool and awesome. And if you've ever wondered who's to blame for my pony-related posts, well, noone else, but the author of this comic who's been nice enough to let their fans know how amazing My Little Pony – Friendship Is Magic is. But for those of you who prefer German to English, I have good news as well: es gibt auf Deutsch auch (and even with these few german words I've proven which version do I prefer…)
So when they announced a fanart contest, it was pretty obvious that I'm applying. And I decided to do it my way. If you read the story from the beginning (and you really should, because it's much more fun that way), you'll find a strip when Sandra (the little girl who's the owner of Woo, the racoon) finds out about her pet's “hidden talent”. I thought it'd be funny to imagine a similar situation in my room, in my 365IP world.
So that is briefly the story of today's irregular daily-drawing.
UPDATE:
I've won. A lot of new visitors by this:

Yes, I have a cute little booklet with my story. Yes, it has been printed in 250 copies, from which I gladly give one to any of you who asks for it. Well, as soon as you hit the “join this site” button in my blog… ;)
Since it's a part of a series, I had no voice in its typography, design or anything connected with its look. So shouldn't have been a big thing for me to recognise those typical lowercase “a” characters, then the “e”-s, then the “c”-s, etc…? I thought at least Eszti will understand…

Have you ever noticed that the best ideas come when you have something important to finish urgently and you don't even have time to eat, sleep or even for such luxury businesses as to go to the toilet in fact? But that's exactly the time when ideas like inventing a new gadget that can detect keys in the house; painting the best picture of your life of a fat cat that plays bagpipe on the top of the Tower Bridge; or making sculptures of scissors and forks… so that's the time when these kind of ideas come to your mind, and you can't figure it out where did they come from.
Like seriously, when you have your time, maybe even a reason to be creative, when you have to, or even when you just feel like… creating something, it's horrible. You start searching in your head and it is empty. You look at the left – nothing. Look at the right – nothing. You might even scream out a “Hellooo!” – but no response. And that is the time when you come to the realisation that you were so stupid to think you have something – anything! – to do with arts and decide to find a nice rope and see the attic…
But seriously, where do these brilliant ideas come then, when you have no time for them? I'll tell you where.
And yes, I really did it. If you are really-reeally open-eyed you even might have noticed it in yesterday's drawing. Well, just as I told you, in 365IP world things work differently.
But seriously, I have a humanist lowercase “e” earring – a Centaur, fyi – in real life too. Believe me!
