I doubt this is really tmi, but how long have you been doing art-things? I expect you've been at this for quite a while, and that would really show.

I have been engaged in art since age 7 (9 years ago). Since I couldn’t draw animals or humans at that time, I doodled a lot of landscapes and created my own cities. That traits remains with me in the case of Ponyville Diaries.

I grew out of it eventually, only to have it resurface when I got interested in MLP 2 years ago.
