request I can't do OCs

[Paianis 489]

In my strive to become more proficient I've finally come round to having a go at an OC. Only trouble is, my Inkscape diagram skills don't really translate to emotional characters. I've got a base model I can use for now but I would be thankful for any suggestions or developments anyone could make on/to it. I am open to anyone, I would not like to pick on one person to do all the work for me.

 

As for the decisions I made so far: the red mane represents how I tend to tackle things without blind acceptance, often being quite fervent and deviant. The blue tail represents the impact that I have (or wish to have) on people I encounter. I insist on not adopting any kind of cutiemark at this point. He's a half-hard, hard-softie kind of pony, one that I hope can represent my own character as a human at some point.
