Thinking of Making A Comic: Any Feedback & Suggestions?

[DND 2,355]

I recently got inspired again by Moonfall, a pretty wondrous ask tumblr blog venturing into Luna and Celestia's past, especially the recent pages. So, with that said, I would like to see what you guys think of my idea so far:

 

 

Luna and Celestia are fillies born with both wings and horns in a superstitious time period in the pre-classical era when ponies are just settling in the new promised land of Equestria. Pegasi and Unicorns are gone to their separate ways: hidden from the other races. Being born on open Equestrian country, the two young fillies are raised in a world full of Earth ponies. And thought to be myths to the Earth ponies, two ponies like Celestia and Luna has never been heard of before. Hidden amongst difference from their Earth pony mother lived far from the nearest settlements. Being raised in the country, Luna and Celestia find themselves finding out their true destinies and talents from gaining their cutie marks. Basically, a story about my headcanon of how they get their cutie marks, and why. 

 

Luna's Filly Appearance:

 

Very similar to this, only she's much younger. She has the typical eye-shape as a bottom and top lashed filly, since there is no make-up involved. and with the narrow eyes like shown in the picture as well. I believe the flowy manes of magic was obtained later from a mysterious power.

 

 

Celestia's Filly Appearance:

 

Celestia's eye shape is narrow, and she is about as big and old as her filly self in this picture. Her mane will be similar to this, but I'll have obvious some tweaks to it. Her eyelashes have no makeup, so her line at the edge of her eye will not be shown, and her eyelashes will be of a fairly typical top eye-lashed filly, as shown in this picture.

 

 

So, with the main pilot said, I would like to also go over a few more details to answer some potential questions about this.

 

__________________________________________________________

 

Why are Luna and Celestia's parents Earth Ponies? And how are they Alicorns this way?

 

Yes, a little hard to understand, but in season 2, Mr. and Mrs. Cake stated that their babies are a different race of ponies because of a selective occasional family heritage. With this stated, I believe Celestia and Luna are the first Alicorns, and thus, they have a perfect mixture of their royal heritage between all three races of the bloodline of their Earth pony parents. Kind of like destiny, I suppose.

 

Why aren't they born in a castle? Aren't they royalty?

 

They have a royal family heritage, bit their parents were not born into royalty. I believe Celestia and Luna earned their way into their rank. I found it would be more interesting to Luna and Celestia born into a poor household in the country, learning about nature and their talents in on their own instead of immediate royalty and destinies.

Still curious? Something still bothering you about it? Do you have other ideas? Please let me know below. I might post it here when I'm done with the first page for you guys.

I honestly like the idea a lot and I would love to see where you take it. I generally don't have opinions about any of the characters' pasts because it can ruin them or it gets too out-of-hand, but I don't sense that here. I can definitely tell you've thought about the idea and the details about how this story would work and know how to keep it interesting. I know I would at least be interested in reading this if you decided to make it happen.

 

Also, D'AWWW at the fillies. :3

Aw, thanks a bunch! I'm glad you think my idea is interesting. It's so nice to hear that! <3 I try to think through and put some logic and originality into my ideas. 

 

Yesh. CSIMadmax is the blame for the d'awwbeetus.
