Well, as a way of killing two birds in one shot, I present you "Majestic Waltz", my 21.000 Pageviews Kiriban, featuring my own anthro version of "Celestia" from MLP for all the brony (and, obviously, non brony such as myself) audience!
Lemme just say... I never knew how to draw clouds...
Use references and do at least one sketch per day... you'll see a world of progress in a matter of months. (I do less than that now... I know... I'm slacking up a bit...)
And don't bother questioning your orientation... just flow with it... you'll have more fun that way, trust me
See my point? They're not even the same gender, so you're free to "freestyle" the sketch while giving a more concrete image to your mind to work with and, therefore, making something more similar to what your head's thinking.
I'm still trying to practice drawing my character as curvy and thick as possible, but it always comes out as a fail DX ))

Well then, time to get to work
