First of all, I should have written this journal a bit earlier but I spent 5 days in the hospital. Nothing serious in the end, I'm OK but I was offline and couldn't draw and it was VERY tiresome for me, for obvious reasons.

Now about the recent pear comic. If you've seen DA bulletin, then you maybe know

Every year, DeviantArt celebrates April Fools' Day by running some kind of ridiculous prank. Our ideas have ranged from pretty believable (like deviantHEART, a dating site dedicated to artists), to a little more "out there" (like thoughtART, the technology we developed that allows users to create and search for art using their minds).

But if you didn't bother to read, I only want to explain why I actually drew the comic with Lolwut pear. I was lucky to be one of THE Chosen by DA mods and was let in on the joke early enough to make a RANDOM piece of fan-art with Lolwut Pear. It's not a secret since that's exactly what was written in the journal I linked above. (Hm, I didn't notice other MLP fan-artists on the list... (correct me if I'm mistaken here) - OK, there are also two artists who are part-time MLP fan-artists xP)
Funnily, MLP fans didn't seem too thrilled about the comic.

But, statistically speaking, it did a bit better than my recent stuff. It was a funny excercise too so I regret nothing.
Let's not forget about Midnight--Blaze who helped me write the story.
Well, it felt nice to take part in this little scheme and I hope you liked the comic after all.

Now back to Better See Pinkie, I will finish it, don't worry but my stay at the hospital and the Pear comic delayed the finale a bit. Sorry for that.

"MLP fans didn't seem too thrilled about the comic" - really? Comments seemed pretty positive, as was the view/fav ratio. ;)
