#Zebedee is Zébulon

[superfast-pillowcase]

I am just rediscovering this whole universe that was so important in my early childhood and am hyperfixated on it right now. I had almost entirely forgotten about it and watched the movie for the first time in about 13 years.

I am just now finding the community, which is everything to me right now because I know exactly three irl people who knew about it too, one of whom I showed the movie too. That’s so little, this is legitimately the most obscure fixation I’ve ever gotten.

As I am finding the community I am feeling less alone in my fixation and it’s great. But it comes with a price. The price being, apparently, discovering that there’s an american version of this movie full of pop culture references.

First of all what the fuck did they do with their voices. Did they even try ? The voice actors are good don’t get me wrong, but why does Dougal have a kid’s voice ? Why does Ermintrude have the heaviest fucking texan accent ??? I don’t know how the non-american english dub does it because I only know the original french version but please tell me their voices aren’t like that in english for the love of god.

Second thing, I legitimately have yet to decide if all the pop culture references are incredibly cursed or incredibly funny. The Matrix got me the hardest tbh.

I am still in awe with finding a Magic Roundabout community, but at what price.

I was today years old when I found out that the magic roundabout had a terrible American dub that's just full of random pop culture references

Today’s Inktober prompt is Enchanted and my drawing for it won’t really be obvious and probably won’t make sense to you unless you’re a French speaker.

This is Zébulon and you’ve probably never heard of him unless you’re French or British (in which case you’ll call him Zebedee), although Wikipedia is telling me that the show was also broadcast in a few other countries at some point or another. Apparently, it was also revived a few years ago for a little while. I wasn’t aware of that.

The show is one of my earliest TV memories, I must not have been more than four or five years old. Oh, and while the show is known as the Magic Roundabout in English, its original name is Le Manège Enchanté.

There, you have the link to the prompt.

At first, I wasn’t sure if I was going to try to do it in black and white, or with color. The “rule” of Inktober is to try using black ink only, and I’ve already used quite a few colors over the previous days. Then, I thought about trying to ink the drawing with colors, but as I wasn’t too sure what I meant by that (and no time to experiment – it’s going to be an issue this year), I was afraid it would turn out too difficult and messy. So, I went the more classic route and I used both colors and black inking. I’m actually pretty happy with the final result.

    Yes, I’m pretty happy, just with a little hatching, I managed to create some volume with the drawing. Don’t you agree?

Tournicoti, Tournicota !
