Description
First vector. If you have any constructive criticism, please give it!Source image: [link]
I think the source was a vector that someone else had already done, and I made some smoothings to it to make it look better.

Done in Inkscape.

Any chance of creating vectors of Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle with halos above their heads as well?

I think I still have that source, the one from which the Scootaloo one was taken, and did at some point mean to do the other two. Keep an eye out, I might get bored one day.

Cons.Criticism:
*Lines are thick/small in some places,
*The wing can be made a bit rounder on the top 'feather'
*Also a wing behind the body would be nice seeing how the front one is open instead of closed.
*On her front right leg, the right vectorline seems squished with the body line.
Try not to always follow the screenshots exactly, do it more roughly, Theres many moments in the show where animation has changed the figure a bit so it looks weird D:

It's a good vector for a frist one! Keep it up!
The eyebrows are good!

Thanks!
Looking over examples of others' work and control points, I'm quickly figuring out that I should actually stroke the dark portions, rather than overlay a light shape over a dark shape to achieve the body's stroke. That's one of the main reasons many of those lines seem squished.

Ah, so you made 2x strokes of different color, one above the other and the one below larger than the one above?
It's usually better to make the outer dark line more of a line i think it is in inkscape (not sure, I use PS CS4/5) and then just add the fill below it, inside the line!
Like you said, its good to see how other people done theirs! Even if its .psd and not .svg(?) they usually contain good info!
