Ok, first off, I'm going to be super-critical only to help you to make your vectors as good as possible. Some of what I'm about to say is advice that someone had given me for my vectors. Also, very good on doing an original pose, that is something I have yet to accomplish. Now to point out those flaws:
1. Rounded ends: There is no rounded ends in ponies, so in all of the spots where a stroke ends, you need to make a point. For example, at the end of the chin, the ends of the nose, where the ear meets the head, where the legs meet the body, at the end of the overlapping stroke on the front legs, where the belly ends (stroke to the left of the cutie mark), on the bottom corners of the feathers, all corners of the tail/mane, etc. ALL need to have a pointy tip.
2. There seems to be a lot of "wobbliness" here. I would suggest trying to use as few anchor points as possible, also using the pen tool will help out a lot if your not already using it.
3. There is no gradients, highlights or accents on the eyes.
4. It looks like the tail is connected to her back, I would suggest moving it or reshape her rump.
Overall, it's good, but there is still some kinks to iron out.

Looks nice. The only two main things I notice are: her eyes seem to be missing a gradient (as far as I can tell), and her ear doesn't have that curved piece in the middle. Her tail looks great, nice job on that (that's a tough part). I'd be interested to know what program you're using: I can offer some additional advice if it's Inkscape, but the others not as much. And Deviantart is telling me this is too short, so I will write some things. Blah blah blah blah yeah yah yo yow yup yay yoo. Okay, it's happy. Again, nice vector e.deviantart.net/emoticons/let⦠" width="15" height="15" alt="

I actually didn't see you had posted a source when I wrote this. Looks like the ear doesn't need that piece, and the eyes seem like almost a flat color for some reason. So nice job!

This is wonderful, and MUCH better than I can do. It kind of looks like the rear legs are shorter than the front legs, but it still looks great. Her farther wing looks a bit crooked where it extends from her body to her first wing feathery things, and it looks like her front wing is really shaped and curvy. Her back seems to come up before her wing on her rump, but it really dips down when it extends to her head. Rainbow Dash looks great, overall! I am sorry if I seem harsh, I'm trying just pointing out things to help you. Again, this is much better than I could EVER do, so great job!

Well, this is actually really great (again)! But afew things I see for constructice critique, is the bottom of the hooves, and the sleekness of the body. For hooves, the right front leg actually shouldn't really look like it's the left one, also that little line riiiight there.... where her front leg passes over her elbow? Yeah, it's fine but it seems too large. Her body needs to be more sleek as well, her spine should have more curve anyway. The two back hooves are fine, though they seem shorter, and the right-back hoof seems longer(?) Overall, great job! better than I could ever do honestly, but critique in all respect e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s⦠" width="15" height="15" alt="

Anytime! I've just read back, hope I didn't come off as snobby/rude or anything :U
Looks hard by the way, do you use a mouse or a graphics tablet?
π: 0 β©: 1
I've used the mouse
The program that I've used was Sketch: [link]
I used to use Photoshop but, most of my vectors that've done with it, ALWAYS TURNS OUT BLURRY!
My very first vector that I've used was called, Inscape.
But I've had trouble with the controls, so I don't use it anymore.
Then I've used both Photoshop CS4, and CS6, Photoshop is really not meant for vectoring.
Then I've used Adobe Illustrator CS4, but there is no rubber band, unlike Photoshop CS4, and CS6.
I used Sketch the most, why?
The controls ROCKS!
At least for me
It does have a glitch, once in awhile, you won't finish connecting the dots, and then it quites on you>-<
Fortunately though, do for the easy controls, I have no problem with it
Your not rude, or snobby, I really love hearing from you
I'm sorry if I accidentally annoy you, I just get so happy that I get other people happy

ah, like Gimp 2.8 compared to Paint.net (I used to use), Paint.net is waayyyy easier than Gimp, but Gimp get's as good as it gets nearly. So hard though!
It's fine, you're not coming off annoying
