aight, the primary beginner folly you made was using the same size circles for constructing the body as the head. for ponies what you mostly want to aim for in terms of proper proportions is the head being the biggest circle, the butt being second largest, then the chest being the smallest. for the body a rough bean shape is what you want for your base. legs on mares are typically one head length long, 1.5 max for a tall or gangly build or unless you are drawing the princesses. you did good on the leg anatomy the shoulder of the leg facing the lines up with the back of the neck as is proper for a pony, and is demonstrated in my sketch. the rear legs hock needs to be a little more protruded. I would recommend a little more shape to the raised leg but it is fine, I usually avoid putting the leg in that position cause it looks a little odd to me but that's just my preference. Id say for raised leg shapes finding show screenshots to use as refs where the characters are moving their legs to copy wouldn't do you any harm, do keep in mind the show is cartoony so they do tend to move their limbs in weird ways and to only use the exaggerated movements when you want your shit to be extra cartoony and you are good. my sketch is entirely for demonstrating proportions, shapes and rough volumes. will try to remember to keep an eye out for you to keep track of your progress, welcome aboard!
