    Yeah, I drew his face right next to my Mystic Heart face. So she's kinda looking towards him and talking, while he's looking up worried.

    It was way back when they were talking to those random ponies. It's the "should I tell the truth or what? Why you puttin' me in this place, Mistbell, I mean Mystic Heart?"

    Are you still gonna do the five thing?
    I might make a collaboration post for it, so that anypony who wants to try can.
    But, first, are you still doing the five?

    What, Shadow Over Ponyville? I've been waiting on PhyschoPunk, who I haven't seen for a while. Only 'cause Mystic Heart's sleeping next to her.

    I think we have a winner here. Good work on your first drawings legion. I'll be around to see more of your work.

    @ Eight Star: She's been gone for like a month now...did she even say why she was gone?

    @ Macro: Thanks! :D Gloria Romae!

    @ Lyon: Thank you, I've not been drawing much lately, but I will buckle down and get a bit done!

    So there's my pic of Simon's OC! It's not very good... but I suppose it wouldn't be after almost two weeks not drawing anything. Boy, these little cousins are just the most time-consuming thing... fortunately (not to sound insensitive, but they drive everyone crazy and we're all glad that they won't be living with us anymore) they are leaving at 4:00 today.

    And here is a cameo appearance from my cousin (my non-annoying one), who was attempting to draw last night while I was drawing Simon. This is entirely his, I did not write a single thing on here:

    Eeyep. That's about all for now. :)

    Would you care for criticism?

    Alright! All for the advancement of art! Also, as your friend, and fellow artist.

    First, the squared hooves again, but like I said, that could just be style. So could the rounded wing, but with the wing it actually looks quite irregular, since feathers end in a pointed tip. I'm sure you could figure out that the torso is longer than it probably should be with those leg proportions. Perhaps slightly thicker and longer legs would've worked?

    Either way, the lifted leg is... a little off in pony bend proportions. Check out the references I uploaded below.

    I have a few pony references I used to begin my artistic trials. I don't remember where they're located, so I just uploaded them onto my FurryPile Gallery.

    After that one, I have two others I did for my very beginnings. Sometimes I reference the second one for proportions.

    Admittably, I don't draw opened wings the same as the show style, I go more by Mrs. Faust's concept art. :derpe:

    Hope that helps. The head looks great! If slightly horizontally long, (but only slightly, it's nothing major.)

    Legion, if you want more like what Eight Star posted I have a whole folder of it. I can send it to you.

    If I can find it again.

    Yyyyyeah, my pony bodies are never that great. Mostly I've only practiced the heads. I will definitely print those out, though! I would like more, too; as I said, admittedly my drawing of the body (legs especially) is not so great. Especially in different poses!!
