Short Comic School Project

[Sunset Shimmer 41]

Hey there everyponybody as you all know i'm in charge of the yearbook, but this year principal Celestia asked me to also supervise another project.
a short, 2 page Comic competition, what could be more exciting than that?
stop right there! yes you, who was about to say you can't draw, the comic doesn't have to be hand-drawn, it can be edits, vectors, or stick figures, anything goes as long as it makes a cohesive story, and don't forget that it's a school project so no gory or explicit stuff, keep it safe

and of course a competition needs a winner, and a winner needs a prize, while every participant will be getting a badge for it, one will be picked by our lovely library staff and be read live on Discord during one of their readings.
the deadline is the end of september, good luck

once you're done, simply post your comic as a comment here

So can it be anything or  what's the theme for the comic? 

[Lord Valtasar 12,685]

Anything. Preferably mlp related

Ponies comic in a nutshell

I HAVE BEEN SUMMONED! Oooohhhh...it says the end of SEPTEMBER not the weekend....

Well at least I didn't procrastinate because this was really fun! 

[Cash In 21,503]

I'm tempted to give this a go, considering that I'll have some extra time on my hands. 

[Dreambiscuit 8,024]

I'd love to try it if I had the time, but I don't so I'll just sit back and enjoy the works of others.  

So far, so good. Can't wait to see all the results.

Is there a minimum length? I can only think of a 3 panel comic.

The minimum would be 2 panels i guess, since it would be panel-less otherwise.

How did you create that comic? I guess ponyscape is pretty good for this stuff?

Photoshop, just Photoshop

I took backgrounds of Canterlot High, premade vectors or cut out vectors from screenshots of the show, and drew over them in order to make unique expressions. I made each panel individually, and then arranged them and added the speech bubbles. That's all it was and it took me about eight hours to do.

[Brony Number 42 9,926]

Is it ok to put captions to screen shots? I have 3 ideas for short strips.

[Lord Valtasar 12,685]

Like i said, anything that looks like a comic will do, as long as it has a story
it needs to be an original story however,
what i mean by that is, you can take a storyline from the show and give it a twist,but you can't take a scene and make it in comic form as it is. or take a comic made by somepony else and tweek it

[Brony Number 42 9,926]

Here is my first, made from screen shots. I hope this is acceptable. I can't draw.

[Brony Number 42 9,926]

When I first saw this episode, this is what I imagined Celestia saying.

Take that, fandom! This one should be a meme.

No, drawing doesn't interest me that much. It is too much work for little pay off. I have other hobbies.But I would like to write for a comic.

Page 1 is ready

@Lord Valtasar I'm really interested to see where this is going but you might want to fix the "blank flank-age" on the last panel on page 1.
