    I think the problem with the colours is too many full, bold, deep colours. Clashes. Take a close look at the actual show ponies - they're really pale shades of blue, purple, orange, green etc on their coats. The manes tend to have fuller colours. Tone down the purple and you'll get a gentler transition.
    They were added on at the last second, probably why it looks off.

    And finally, someone has been able to tell me WHY the character looks odd. I couldn't place my finger on it, and everyone I'd asked had given me nebulous, kind of not useful at all answers. I'll try it with a lighter purple; I'm pretty sure she'll look leagues better afterwards.

    EDIT: Old vs. New. The outline feels off now, probably because I didn't change it, and may be operating on no sleep for 30some hours eheheh.
