Thank you! I am proficient in neither colours nor shading, so I tend to compensate with clear lines and many details; I am glad that it's not that much of a detriment, at least to some. Thank you very much for the comment; it motivates me greatly, and that's what I always need the most. Thank you again!

Aye; if you ask me, a uniform looks good on any person with above-average physique, be it man or woman. Or stallion or mare, for that matter

Yes, they do! Their long limbs in particular work well with uniforms, I think.

Luna doesn't look ungreat in any of them.
You have some serious skills! I've not yet been able to draw a decent Celestia.

Even the princesses enjoy a change in wardrobe from time to time.

Although my intentions regarding my portrayal of Celestia did not consider Molly, I cannot say there were no influences, at least the indirect ones.

But, but my colouring skills are too lacking! D: I won't be doing the Princesses any justice.
Perhaps I'll try that once I get a hang of soft colours.

That is actually a fabulous idea! But where do I find colourists willing to colour this comic for free? Or perhaps as an art trade?

What a wonderful gift you give your friend. Receiving those great drawings of our beloved princesses and in uniforms with that, what a treat! And they look great in these. Yeah, when we find already "nude" ponies more attractive with clothesΒ than being without.
I like a lot that you kept Luna as herself.
Wonderful work. I'm sure Twilight will enjoy these pictures. Seriously, if they were for sale for a real charity, they would sell for a high price.

Thank you greatly for the wonderful comment! Today is one of the happiest days of this year, and I am glad that I decided to draw this comic for my friend. Of course, the primary reason for that happiness is because the friend liked it very much!
I suspect the photos would work really well as a charity drive. Hm, it would also work well in endearing Princess Luna to the populace; if we are to take Rainbow's comments in her Birthday-Anniversary seriously, then it's only been a year since Princess Luna's return, and the ponies of Equestria wouldn't be that used to Luna yet. Even if we headcanon things a bit to make the chronology smoother, Luna can't have been back for long.

I was talking about Luna's articulate and aristocratic way of speaking. Few wrote her lines of her talking this way. I'm glad you did, because I like her way of speech. And it also reminded me to be more careful about it the next time I write a story with her in it.
Ah Celestia... even as a princess of centuries young, she find moments of genuine fun to share with her beloved sister. You really did a great job on their anatomy and facial expressions and body language. Blushing Luna is cutest Luna.
BTW, did you based yourself solely on the uniforms shown in the show? Probably not with just the details you put in it.

Meto30 In reply to cajobif [2014-04-11 03:03:25 +0000 UTC]
Ah, yes, I was being careful with how I write the two Princesses' lines. I always try to imagine characters' lines in my head in canon voices, playing things back to back multiple times to make sure nothing sounds too off; it doesn't always work, but at least it's got me this far. My experiences of being a dungeon master for four years helps me in that regard, methinks. Thank you for your kind commendation
I'm a fan of immortality stories, and I am saddened when a good person terns bad or sometimes downright mad by the monotony of immortal life. Of course, there is no way of knowing if that trope is true or not until someone does live multiple centuries, but assuming it is, I figured Celestia needed a way to find fun in little things if she were to stay true to her duty as a wise and ever-benevolent monarch/diarch of her little ponies. Return of Luna is a great solution to that problem, as being sisters they could partake in many rather nonsensical but fun activities together with no violation of royal decorum.
And thank you again for your kind commendation; I'm very glad that I pulled Luna's blush off correctly
On the uniforms, the only reference images I did use were the images from the show, but I did apply some tidbits of real world uniforms that I knew of while drawing them, especially the hats. The style of the FiM animations doesn't show a lot of details, and I wanted to show details I did not have any particular uniforms in mind while adapting the sisters' outfits, though.
