Welcome to the-bus-called-graveyard-8, a blog dedicated to DreamWorks' Madagascar franchise! These guys have been living rent free in my head since 2009 👏 I like to make gifs and I occasionally try my hand at drawing and fic writing. Hope you enjoy your time here, and don't forget to smile and wave!

yesterday I got to draw penguins on some classmates' shirts

who would've thought being open about my interests wouldn't get me bullied. huh even the headmistress knows I love penguins

I drew 7 penguins in total but these are my top 3 favorite yayyy

SHIJP WEEK TOMORROW

[captainsammybreab]

ahh finally my finals are over. i can now proceed to be a chud and watch and draw Penguins. I'm planning to write a really long essay about them too, it's probably gonna suck but I HAVE BEEN DYING TO DO IT

this was a coloring test I did some days ago when I wasn't home and I couldn't do anything else. I'm gonna have to keep practicing

Zora design and Xixi doodle page! (Because everyone seems to love my design of her)

I haven’t drawn Mort in a while, and I wanted to make sure I made Zora big and buff to match her lemur self! I love drawing Xixi as much as people enjoy her design and I’m happy people like my designs. Once I’ve don’t all the designs for the characters I’ll put them in a compilation

This will 4ever be my fave jaurice gif cz i love the idea of maurice's tail being SO big it can just cover julien, also their synchronization makes me sooo gahahahdbaj ive been getting in2 steven universe again & i genuinely think this would be a part of their fusion dance

[the-bus-called-graveyard-8]

how have you survived dude I miss Madagascar so much and I only got obsessed with it last year 😭😭uou so strong

Oh it is a struggle sometimes!! I would kill for something new in the franchise. Do we need another movie? No. Are studios putting out way too many unnecessary sequels & reboots? Yes. Would I immediately become a hypocrite and jump for joy if they made another Mada film or series? Absolutely. Missing it is definitely a mood; as to how I've survived, I'm just nonstop spinning those guys around in my head <3
