Official Sketches and More Season 2!

by Sethisto

Sibsy over on Deviant Art (One of the animators working on FiM) recently dropped these on her DA page, along with the message:

"Wrapping up work on the last episode of season 2 of MLP....this episode never seems to end!"

These guys are awesome. Also filly twilight is endlessly cute.

You can find the DA page here if you want to follow her here!

Thanks to Calpain for the report!

(insert sound of heart melting and exploding at the same time here please, I'm too busy D'AWWing at the pictures to come up with a suitable sound effect on my own... of course, if people are on this page, they are most likely too busy doing the same to do so either. CURSES!!)

And Twilight once again confirmed for best pony ever.

Its likely that Sibsy was referring to her own role (possibly animatics or storyboard) in s2 e26 rather then the whole episode being done. Remember that last month, Jayson Thiessen said that e1 was only just finished, and that was a screener version. Episodes are worked on simultaineously by multiple teams so there is still many months of work for them. Even still, October is only 2 months away!
