First pony drawing attempt...Not sure if I should be proud or ashamed.

[Arashi Takamine 121]

Here's the first time I ever attempted to draw a pony...I was looking at so many tutorials I sorta just mushed what I saw to create...This.

 

Not sure if this is good for a first timer or extremely bad.

 

 

Of my OC Harmonic.

Well you should be proud. Showing off your drawings isn't the easiest thing to do, especially when you dont know if you/others will like it or not.

 

This is better then any drawing i chould have done. And that makes me automaticly think its good.

The mane is spot on!

[Arashi Takamine 121]

Thanks you two...I really needed to hear that. I'm gonna keep practicing too.

Mane, AMAZING.

 

Body- Work on it.

[Arashi Takamine 121]

Welp least I got the mane right...Body I'm still working on.

[Marshmallow 1,134]

I really like his... mane?

 

No, seriously, I really do like it! The mane actually is very good.

There's room for improvement for the body, especially the legs imo, but practice makes perfect!

 

Overall, I think this is pretty good for a first drawing! (especially that mane ^^ )

It takes time to be be good at drawing ponies, tricky stuff at first (still tricky to me).

Here are some dandy set of guides to help:

Other then that simply google pony drawing guides, there's tons of stuff online to help you learn.

<p>Thank you...I'm really surprised it turned out how it did...Who knew such a seemingly simple art style would be such a pain to get right. I'm working on another pic of Harmonic as I type trying to perfect it. So far all tutorials on DeviantART are useless as their for photoshop only...Taking a look at the link in the post quoted below. Thanks again.</p>

DAT MANE.

 

Very nice work for a first try. All it takes is practice C:

[Arashi Takamine 121]

Thanks. I've been practicing since making that one I think I got the legs down...Just the body I really need to work on..Decided to call it a night this time round but each result is turning out better and better.

[Robert3186 45]

The mane is really quite nice. A good effort on the whole, but of course, there is always room for improvement. Just keep practicing and soon you will create a piece of art that you will truly love. That's all you can ask for.

Was just about to post this oh well. The body (more specifically the back leg) could use some rounding, by the back leg I mean how they have it curving back.

 

[Arashi Takamine 121]

Well...I thought I'd post attempt number two...I think it came out a lot better.

 

 

EDIT: And I realized she looks like a guy...*sweatdrop* Eh practice makes perfect.

what program are you using to draw? give Paint.net a try if your just using regular paint, its like a free version of photoshop and has a really cool Curved line tool ive learned that 4 on the curved line tool = thickness of the ponies outlines in most typical pictures (from the show) props on the draw though! still a far cry better than anything ive ever drawn (im more into coloring stuff ^~^ )

[Arashi Takamine 121]

I actually used paint to draw this. I think this is number...19? Of the drawings I've tried and completed. I used the paintbrush instead of the pencil this time...The line was used mainly for the legs though.

 

 

Thanks! (The hardest thing I've learned to draw since anime characters.)
