Okay what are you having trouble with and how can I help? Try taking a picture of one of the cannon ponies and over the body draw circles. Also there are hundreds of reference sheets and things online.

[Dattebayo 2,850]

Eye-trace ponies (plop yourself in front of a picture of a poneh and draw by occasionally looking at the picture), nothing is a better reference than the actual show.

The hardest parts are usually the mouth/nose/muzzle/whatever-the-f*ck...

Also, body-circles are usually bad advice for some, lest they become too reliant on them.

Try different methods out and see which one fits your flavor better.

I suggest learning how to measure distance.

 

Even if you know all the guidelines, you can still **** up the proportions if you don't know things like "how" and "where."

Use a compass for the muzzle as it is really hard and i struggled

That's the case for mares, though you can choose to be a bit more liberal for stallion muzzles; some make them squarish, others make them the same as a mare's, and a few others just make their own style.

The body is fairly easy, but the muzzle is, yes, sometimes hard. I always use a light pencil first instead of starting out with the ink pen.

And if you're really serious about drawing ponies and think it's something you'd like to explore a little more, remember to find your own style. Most DeviantArt users or those interested in art don't try to copy the MLP ponies exactly, they add their own personal touches. It's what makes their drawings likeable and unique. :3
