Description
The first vector that I've created of Fluttershy, and additionally the first vector that made realise that I'm going to need a lot of practise with cutie marks.Oh well, I hope it didn't turn out too bad in the end. Although I'll appreciate any advice somepony could give me on how to vector cutie marks in greater detail!

I used your vector in a PIRL!Β makenshi179.deviantart.com/artβ¦
Thank you for your work! :D

Wow, it's nice! I'm glad to see that you were able to make something nice with my resources.

Do you mind some critique?
There are some minor bugs here. One of her majore mane lines is unfinished. Also, it breaks a bit around the height of her chin. There are a few other breaks too, but they're harder to spot. Also the back wing misses its border line.
And her eye reflections are a bit angular. You're making them with splines? Cause that's what I used to do, but then realized that normal ellipses are way better.

Well, I'm largely just making them with the pen tool in Illustrator. Using ellipses might be a good idea, though - I'll give it a try in my next vector.
As for the other errors, they might be largely because of the low resolution picture I was using as a template. Here it is: [link]
Still though, thanks for the critique! I appreciate any kind of advice that can help me improve my future work.

Because I'm really, really terrible at drawing.
If I were to actually draw something, I'd make stick figures look like professional art.

Drawing is more creative and original than vectors.

You're right, but like I said, I'm rubbish at drawing. And so, I don't really have any intentions of doing so.
Vectoring on the other hand is something I'm much better at, and I actually like doing it. So, that is why I make vectors. The fact that some other ponies who find them might actually like them is just a satisfying bonus.

But there are SO MANY vectors... I bet people have made fluttershy vectors identical to this.'
I've seen many identical vectors, so there doesn't really need to be more.
But you're free to make vectors. I'm just sayin'.

I understand, although I usually try to make vectors for characters in poses that I haven't seen yet. If a bunch of vectors in this same pose already exist, then that's just unfortunate on my part.
And besides, it's good practise for when Season 3 comes out. Hopefully I'll be able to make some brand new vectors at that time.
