Probably no big numbers for Tumblr but anyway thanks to everyone who likes @shiftingchangelings or my drawings in general for this double-milestone :D

I wish I could do some kind of event-stuff but I’m too busy with uni and work and don’t want to delay the next comic page even more… Btw, there is a tiny chance that I can finish it this week.. but expect it some time next week ;)

Graeystone: All good ideas do have some kind of inspiration. This comic is no different. After a year plus a couple of months, I finally found the fancomic that gave me the initial idea for Shifting Changelings (The reason it took so long was because I forgot to Favorite the Comic) -
drawponies.deviantart.com/art/…
So a special thanks for drawponies!

@moemneop: I’m sorry for the delay, I guess I badly planned on some drawing deadlines (plus uni and work keeping me busy…) :/ I’ll try to finish the next pages faster again ;)

Comic update ;)

Graeystone: Yes, Derpy is that old. Because Changelings are shapeshifters (physical + magical) their cells constantly rejuvenate and the Healing Puddle does slow down the aging process making them able to live for at least 2000 years before their cells can no longer rejuvenate. At that point the cellular rejuvenation becomes like any other normal life form and changeling then has a normal lifespan.

Graeystone: After giving certain plot ideas some thought, I’ve came up with some really neat ideas that will greatly improve the story from what I had originally planned. Page 17 starts a complete rewrite for the rest of the story except for the ending. The overall plot hasn’t changed either. Its just the ‘how’ that’s been changed.

Neop: I changed the art style for the princesses a little. It isn’t perfect yet, but I like it much more now.

Comic update ;)

Graeystone:
Been asked about the recent episode The Times They Are A Changeling and how that affects the comic. That episode doesn’t affect the comic for the following reasons:

1. The comic was started long before the episode aired and I don’t want to make the kind of changes that line up the comic with canon concerning Thorax. With the path that’s laid out for the comic, Thorax couldn’t fit in anywhere without seriously distracting from the regular cast.
2. MLP the cartoon is a child’s show. They have to ‘soften’ characters like Chrysalis so she remains ‘kid friendly’. The comic is not a kids comic as shown on page 11.
3. This is also 'realistic comic’ in some ways. Chrysalis is reflective of just about every real life dictator/tyrant in the present and past. Simply put - dictators do not care about their people. Also the Changeling Hive reflects real life insect hives, not the ones found in the movies Antz or A Bug’s Life.

Comic update ;)

One year of Shifting Changelings…

Graeystone: Hello and thanks to everyone(pony) that has enjoyed and supported us on
this venture. Its really great to have such wonderful support and people
who love the comic. I’m glad we have such a large group of readers. I’d
also like to thank the people at Equestria Daily who declared the comic
worthy of being mentioned regularly at their website when a new page is
released.
Also thanks to the various translators who translated the
comic into various languages for others to enjoy. I would say the
translators have helped to really put the comic on the Internet Map.
Special thanks to Lauren Faust and Hasbro who lets the Fandom have the freedom to produce the fanstuff they do.
Great thanks for moemneop who agreed to do just about all of the ‘heavy
lifting’ for the comic. Without moemneop, this comic just wouldn’t have
happened or would have been in poor quality. .and no I didn’t have to
blackmail or use extortion to get him to do all of the stuff he does.
Give him a round of applause/points everyone(pony). He deserves it.
I’ll shut up now and please continue to enjoy and read SCLT 'cause … Lukida’s existence and sanity sort of depends on it…

Neop: I guess Graeystone already said alot. Thanks to everyone who reads and enjoys our comic!
I’m aware that we only have 14 pages up to this day while other comics come up with a hundred pages in the same time… I’m always trying to improve both quality and the amount of time I need to finish a page. Page 14 took me about a week to finish, but I hope you understand that 'reallife’ often interferes -.-
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the story so far and will also enjoy the rest of it.

Deleted changed scene from @shiftingchangelings, page 12…

I’m not dead, just drawing some.. happy Changelings.. ^^
