Some words of critique since you asked for tips to improve :) I very much enjoy seeing how you've been exploring different styles in these, the artwork definitely reflects your joy. :lovey: If you wish to take your art to the next level, I would pay attention to anatomy and perspective. Especially the shoulder, elbow & barrel area is something that can be more challenging to pin down in certain poses or angles. In my opinion it's a good idea to follow the general principles of horse anatomy when drawing ponies in order to make them look natural, even when heavily stylised. I know that in official MLP art (and the FiM show in particular) these rules are sometimes broken and that's fine, too, if a more human-like expression is desired. Anyway, I find that using basic shapes when sketching helps to avoid anatomical issues (and I still often get it wrong and realise it too late, haha :D ). But I think it's wonderful that you're trying out different things, dynamic poses and more unusual and challenging angles. You're very good at capturing the sense of movement and personality! I look forward to seeing more of your work.
(P.S. Mod note - I locked the accidental extra copies of the thread, I kept the latest one as I saw you had edited it, I hope I made the right choice!)

Thank you so much! I've never been great at horses so I'm very much learning as I go lol, but I'm so glad the pony joy shines through :] I love silly ponies and I love drawing em! And... oops!! Some photos uploaded strangely so I went back in and fixed their sizes... didn't realize that would make new copies of the post! Sorry >_<
