Looks like the only "rule" you broke is making him tan but I think since you actually drew a little hair (so he doesn't look bald, not that horses have tan skin but I'm guessing that's why tan is usually weird looking) it's really not that bad. I don't really like the look of any male ponies but that's nothing against your dude that's just me being picky :P

btw this is the most recent one idk why but this is the best one ive done so far i still suck at backgrounds but im getting better at movement and different angles
Getting a good mane/tail design is tricky. I daresay Zeph's is too over-the-top, but...yeah. Not easy to come up with a good looking and appropriate mane/tail. And thanks, I appreciate it.
The two OCs of mine I mentioned that weren't my ponysona are starring in a fic' I'm working on, so pardon the 'stupid story'. Backstory is kind of necessary for those two.
Thank you too.
Only issue I have is the lime-green eyes. They don't really seem to fit with the rest of him. At a glance, I'd probably go with a darker, foresty-green or another color entirely, but I can't say for sure until I've messed around with their color extensively.
Tan actually works in this case because his hair is brown--kind of like Dr. Hooves. It usually doesn't when you give them a more colorful mane/tail.

I believe we have a case of miscommunication here on my part, what I meant was "make everything out of the ordinary be an important part of its story".
Also, because relevant (and shameless self promotion)
This is my death knight as a pony. It took me almost a year to get his mane right, curse the blood elves and their fabulousity.
