I hate "month"-days...

The month of February through the middle of March are my least favorite times of the year. Everything seems to not go well. I'm just frustrated in what to do with my talent and how to do it... I would like to offer commissions somehow, but I'm also wanting to start a comic strip for the newspaper, or at least have a one on the web that people would like.

I'm asking God to help me in figuring out what to do with my drawing abilities that would bring honor to him. I have a christian cartoon show idea that I would like to do, however I'm debating whether to make it stop-motion, or 3D animation. It's called"The Adventures of Manny and Mindy". Here are some concepts of the characters I have so far:



Here's my description of the show:
(Concept below copyrighted to OVDUP)
It'll be a 3D animated (CG or Stop-motion) Christian children show, somewhat similar to how the Veggietales series were done...

The concept title right now is "The Adventures of Manny & Mindy". A possible theme music would be from an old hymn "Our Great Savior". Each episode would have a life lesson, and there would be singing in it. I would like to have at least one classic hymn in each episode the characters can use to relate to the lesson being taught at that time.

The main character is a banded mongoose, named Manny, 8 yrs old, who wears a red shirt & baseball cap. He's got a younger sister, Mindy, 4 yrs old, who wears a purple shirt and has a pony tail with a purple braid. Maddie, is a brush-tailed rock wallaby who is Manny's best friend and helps him out when he needs it.
(END CONCEPT)

I've still got to figure out how to put it all together and present it...
