Hey guys, here's my first pony sketch. I just wanted you guys opinion on it considering it's my first. I'll take any help you guys have for me so I can use it in the future.

Sorry, but if you want criticism, try attaching the drawing. You don't seem to have posted it so no one can say if it's good or not.

 It is attached, but its turned sideways. Sorry about that. My computer was a little uncooperative and I couldn't tell if it was attached or not.

It is recognizable as pony, but could probably use some work. Maby i could land a helping hand. I done few skate's myself and am all happy share them with you.

Remember this is my first one, also this was at school between class assignments. I'll definitely try to get better though, I didn't think it was that bad considering I didn't have drawing paper, and that I drew it with a mechanical pencil.

Don't worry abut it. I just thought looking at someone else's drawing examples would be good thing, hope can learn something of things i have drawn.

I wish it was turned so I could get a better look...  But I'll give you some advise anyway.  First off, the muzzle does look good (I'm hoping it's male, if it's female, make it smaller and more rounded).  The legs, I'd give them more of a curve and a bit longer...  Although the one he's lifting up is a bit too curvy and kind of looks like a noodle.  Try making three circles for the head, chest and rump.  It really helps and the neck won't be as long then either.  If I were you, I'd take a look here for some very helpful information:

I'll be sure to look at them all. Thanks anyway, like I said I need as much help as I can get, especially before I start to draw my OC.

No problem, remember some study can help out allot that what i did for my personnel OC, looking littel at the MLP show and other art works out there is good source of knowledges, And also can give some good idea's didn't think abut before. But it do of course boil down to how much work want put into it. Best of luck with you and your drawings.

 

Sig, out. *Squee*
