It is great you sketch so much, keeps all the creative juices flowing. The more you do it, the more you can do it. Awesome.

As an aside, I didn't make these, some unknown artist did.  I found and bought them at a local thrift store Friday afternoon (fifty cents for the whole lot in a gallon Ziploc bag) and just thought I'd share.  I got NES Link, GBA Link & Princess Zelda, Kirby, a Pirana Plant, Wario, Luigi, and Princesses Peach (Toadstool) & Daisy.  I don't know why, but the cat thought Kirby's star rod was a serious threat or something, because, when I was sitting on the living room couch, unpacking the contents of the bag onto my thigh, she slowly crept up on it and VERY cautiously reached out and slapped the rod with her paw (maybe she was one of King Dedede's minions in a past life).  Luigi is missing an entire leg, and there's a few beads gone from some of the others here-and-there as well, but, overall, they're in fairly good shape.  I've considered trying to make some Perler bead sprite art many times over the years, but, never did, so, buying some, for a pittance, is the next best thing.  If I get ambitious, maybe I'll get some Perler beads and a peg frame and try giving Luigi a new leg (spoiler: I have no ambition, so expect nothing).

Patraw, I went to the first garage sale of the year this past weekend.  They were selling a few 'My Little Ponies' and it made me smile because I thought of you and your posts!

That minion in the floatie duck is adorable. I love his little smirky smile.

@LadybugsAndBumblebees.  I have WAY too many My Little Ponies as it is (not that too much is ever enough for Rainbow Dash), but thanks for thinking of me!  Funnily enough, I had a similar experience last Saturday.  I found a gallon Ziploc bag full of Bionicle parts for $2 and thought of craftylittlemonkey's son.  Upon further inspection, the bag's contents weren't very good though--lots of random components (weapons, shoulder pauldrons, etc.), but not enough pieces to actually construct a single complete figure in my estimation (no heads for example), so, I put it back on the shelf. 

@rackycoo:  I drew that picture using a photo from this book as my model (I forgot what his name is):

We had all these vintage sheets stashed at the cottage, my sister and brother's strawberry shortcake and care bears sets, lol. No pony sheets though lots of ponies. Nothing really fares very well there over the years due to dampness and being stored inside a freezing cold, drafty building all winter long. I bet they are all still there though, threadbare and ratty. I'll take photos of anything good this summer, it will be fun to laugh and reminisce over them anyhow.
And I won't tell the lad you passed on the bionicle bits, he would fret about what might have been in that collection. He is seriously into those robots. Weirdo. Wonder where he gets that from, eh

The fish are from Animal Crossing: New Leaf, I only drew the sea turtle, not them.
