Comet in Moominvalley 🌠 alternative ending (or not ending... of course, the comet doesn't hit)

As the family was about to take shelter in the cave, they stopped at the sight of the raging comet cutting through the clouds and revealing the impending disaster. They all knew then, yet no words were spoken between them, for there was nothing left to say. This was the end.

I was left utterly speechless at how poorly this story was adapted in Moominvalley. There was no impact, no sense of urgency or drama. In the book, as well as the 90s film, there is this constant sense of dread from the comet looming in the sky. Even though disaster feels inevitable, the family keeps going and stay together till the end.

In Moominvalley, the comet isn't a threat until we're halfway through the episode, leaving very short time for building up the tension. And yet, even after the reveal, the comet still doesn't feel threatening, because nobody seems to care?!

And don't get me started on the thing with the Groke 😤 what even was that.

At the bare minimum, they could have given us a moment like this to let us feel the emotional impact of when the characters believe this is the end. Just something to make us care. Also, by having Snufkin grab Moomintroll's paw, it could show the continuation of Snufkin's arc of learning to love and depend on his friend, rather than running away. Plus, it seems like a fitting "show, don't tell" solution to what he never got to actually say at the mountains episode 👀

This was just supposed to be an animatic, but I apparently can't help myself, so oops, I animated it instead lol

Hello Moominvalley fans, particularly those of you that aren't in the UK! I'm doing my best to upload all the episodes to a Google drive 🥰 for now with the link you can watch episode 1 of season 4, enjoy! 🍃

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1uA2X6AIKWxXPgVf6e8XrC44dY_g_kE1A

Sneaky lil update: I honestly didn't expect this to get as many uses as it has, if you're struggling to play it because of the pop up saying the playback limit has been exceeded, click on the 3 dots next to the episode and hit "make a copy" and save it to your own drive it should work then! Or just wait and try again later on my drive! 🥰

FINAL UPDATE: Comet in Moominvalley is processing and will be available to watch shortly. Enjoy Season 4 everyone! 🍃

⚠️ Ok so I've now closed this link as I finally got DMCA'd, it took longer than I anticipated, sorry if you haven't watched it yet, there's not a whole lot I can do atm 🥲 ⚠️

It's so funny that they straight up gave Snork an autism accent in the 90s moomins anime English dub. I bet someone was just like "Snork is a nerd, how do nerds talk? I know, let's give him a deep and kinda flat voice, have him round out vowels and have him emphasise every word in the sentence."

The term autism accent can be fairly diverse and the weird ways autistic people talk can be different, but the term definitely applies to Snork. You just know he taught himself to speak properly by reading books. Every word in the sentence is its own event to him.

💫 MOOMIN AU INTRODUCTION 💫

Welcome to the Garden AU! This has been my passion project for over 2 years, and I’m excited to finally present it to you all! I hope you will join me as I tell the story of the Garden AU to the world! :-)

Interested? Click ‘keep reading’ below to see the premise of the AU and the characters, as well as some info about the arcs!

💫 THE STORY 💫

This AU mainly follows Moomintroll and his friends as they adventure together, both inside and far outside of the valley. Their adventures start out fairly lighthearted, but when they discover that their own lives mysteriously reflect what is known about the lives of ‘The Pillars’, also known as the founders of magic, they seek to uncover the missing pieces of their stories and solve the mystery of the King’s Ruby and its uncertain origins.

💫 THE CHARACTERS 💫

(icons coming soon! technical difficulties 💔)

Moomintroll

Species: Moomin (+witch) The enthusiastic Moomintroll, the self-proclaimed “leader” of the group and aspiring adventurer. It was his idea to bring everyone together to uncover the Pillars’ stories! He may be stubborn and hotheaded at times, but the love and warmth he has for his friends will always ground him in the end. Song I associate with him: Soap by The Oh Hellos

Snufkin

Species: Half jackalope, half mumrik The mysterious Snufkin, with the unique ability to turn invisible at will. While he and Moomin initially may not have had the best start, he will always come back to the valley to greet him each spring. While he appears stable and sure, rumors spread fast, and the winds are saying he’s keeping parts of him in the dark. Song I associate with him: What’s in the Middle by The Bird and the Bee

Snorkmaiden

Species: Snork A princess living abroad in the quiet Moominvalley. Her and her brother were dropped off at the Moominhouse years ago by their mother for unknown reasons. Don’t let her sweet nature fool you, she can brew up quite a storm! Song I associate with her: Once Upon a December from Anastasia

Snork

Species: …Snork A prince to match the princess. This curious inventor isn’t a fan of magic and prefers the predictability of science, but his roots as a magical creature are at odds with his ideals. Song I associate with him: Not decided

Sniff

Species: half dragon A half-dragon that was adopted into the Moomin family many years ago after a great storm. While on the surface he seems to be a mighty selfish beast with an eye for treasure, it seems his friends may take him for granted more than they realize. Song I associate with him: Not decided

Little My

Species: Half jackalope A “halfalope” like her brother, although she doesn’t possess the same ability to turn invisible since she lacks the mumrik genes. Her snarky attitude can prove to be quite a motivator even if it gets on other’s nerves. She’s a tiny trickster who knows a lot more than she lets on! Song I associate with her: Not decided

💫 THE ARCS 💫

The story is split up into 3 main arcs. The first arc focuses on establishing relationships and the world around them, eventually leading into the beginnings of their journey in Arc 2!

💫 ARC ONE 💫

Chapters:

To Be Determined

First chapter: There’s a mysterious newcomer in Moominvalley… but Moomin is the only one who can see him!

💫 EXTRA 💫

While this AU is fairly Snufmin-centric, I have developed stories for all of the main characters and each will have their moment to shine!! I hope to bring something for everyone with the Garden AU <3

This AU will be presented in Comic form! I am a fairly busy and tired person however, and pages may come out slowly.

A wild Snorkmaiden has arrived!!!!!

Poker night.

I imagine they use buttons for poker chips. Snork will definitely prefer being dealer. Little My will suspect Sniff for cheating, but he is actually just quite good at poker - for that same reason, they don't play with real currency.

this is actually a scene from a very long fanfic I'm working on... I won't start posting it until it is done, so it might be a while, but I fully intend to finish it. it's been cooking for a while now (to the point where I even scrapped the initial draft of approx. 45000 words (100 pages in google docs............) because I needed to simplify some things).

making little pieces like this keeps my motivation going 😊

MOOMINS AS STOCK IMAGES!!!

I did these out of boredom, maybe I'll do more some other time, who knows?

[sputniksflight]

Even more ancient sketchdump I found among some uni paperwork 🤣

I especially am fond of this snork that looks like having a constant panic attack, I feel it.

Edit:

I found the smallest doodle (4x5cm like xD) of the famous infamous brainscorcher ink @zealousassistant 🤣
