Our Dear Celestia Script and Thumbnails

This is the original script and thumbnails for "Our Dear Celestia" [link], for folks that like this kind of thing.

The script was written in bits and pieces over a couple months, so I made a lot of little notes to myself in it to remind me why exactly I chose to do certain things. It's a good habit to get into, even for quick short scripts, since it helps me mull things over. I've only included the "final" thumbnail sketches here, but I tend to do at least 2 or 3 versions of each until I get something I like, but they're mostly for deciding angles and word balloon placement anyway. Even at this point, panel 4 broke my heart.

Bits and pieces got changed for certain things as I went about making the final comic, but it gives a pretty good look at how I go about things.
