When you wear dark clothes on your top end you look fine, just ditch the pale jumpers

5'6" isn't too tall for him.

Neither pics are taken from flattering angles, both are going to make you look big on him. I think you are fine on him but if you really aren't sure get someone to take pics side on so you get the full pic!

No

You look fine on him!

You don't look huge at all! I'd look at the post that was around a day or two ago about all the adults that ride ponies. I'm taller than you and have ridden 13.2's quite comfortably and have photos to prove that I don't look silly. As long as when your riding him you don't feel underhorsed and can ride effectively then you don't have a problem - but you look fine, definitely not too tall!

You look fine. There are too many 4'9" pygmies riding 18.2hh horses anyway (apologies to short people)

You look fine on him, I sometimes wonder If I am too big for ben, as I am 5ft 11 and I do feel like I make him look like pony

No - I don't think that you look big on him at all. You should see me riding my dads 13hh driving pony!!
