Description I decided to try my coloring style on a pony now. When I first created it, I made a mistake in coloring and I was trying to cover up my mistake. Unfortunately, it made the artwork uglier and I ended up crumpling  the paper and throwing it in the trash can out of rage.     

I drew it again and I guess Improved in drawing wings strangely XD However, Twiliy's eyes look different from the one I made. here, her eyes look a little derpy. The background was a little challenging because I was trying to imitate the colors of an afternoon sky. I even added clouds to make it look like Twilight is flying but unfortunately, I failed Well, I'm not really good in drawing backgrounds. 

Setting that aside, I did my coloring right and I'm happy with this artwork I also changed on how I draw pony eyes and wings. The wings are different from the show because I seem to have a hard time imitating it XD

It's a wonderful pony! The shades of pink-purple-blue seems so cheerful! The bright eye's and the horn make the unicorn so dreamful, also the flying wings are super drawed! I like it!

Spectacular!   absolutely love the new colouring style on ponies..it brings out her colours more and....omg...THE WINGS!! xD oh my goodness,was this THE drawing that you crumpled? xD
I have an idea for making BGs! it's pretty simple actually,how about like,a line just above the base of her right hoof for the dirt track,a line just above one of her feathers for the field and the rest is for the sunset BG...you can also add details like mountains in the distance,green dots for trees (like in this drawing) and a picket fence next to the dirt track..details help a bunch if you wanna make the best BG

Thank you very much Danny! I'm glad you like it!    
admittedly, this was the drawing I crumpled because I made a mistake with the coloring style XD
Hmmm.... That is a good idea! I'll try that next time!

Good work on the wings and yesh, the eyes are kinda derpy.

Nice work on the mane and tail too.

Although the folded leg is a bit too small in relation to the rest of her.

Otherwise, nice to see ponies again.

Thank you very much ^_^ 

oops! I guess I should make it bigger XD 

yeah, it's been a long time since I've drawn ponies. It's a good thing my pony drawing skills did not get rusty XD
