I'm getting the muzzle's position correct right? Hopefully not making the sideways wolf error
>>43014355nah that's about right for the position also based taste
>>43014367Thank you, I'm slowly trying to figure out my own way of drawing them outside show-lite
Another Pinkie I drew. This one I'm pretty happy with.

>>43014440Wonder if theres a guide anywhere for ponies looking up like this. Always found it a little difficult myself.Also cute ponker, anon!
>>43013033Reposting here incase anon didn't see the redline>>43014355seems good and horsey to me>>43014440Joymaxxing ponk>>43015529I think there is one in the drawfag document if you look around a little. But with these poses you want to really focus on the outline outside and the shading inside since working too much with lines inside can look a little wonky from my own experience

Posting more old art i found :)
broke my 6 month record of no drawing by doodling my muse as a pony (warning for cock and balls)https://files.catbox.moe/fgr9bv.pngany critique would be greatly appreciated! the legs are certainly a bit off, though i can't pinpoint why.
>>43019137Nice cock (and balls)My only comment is that the posterior part feels disconnected from the rest of the body but maybe I'm wrong.
IWTCIS
>>43019455thank you for the input! i think you may be right, it does look off..i didn't really look for a reference and just started drawing with my dick so that's my fault. i will try to look for similar pose references before drawing next time
>>43019137>>43019981I whipping up something for you right now but I'm gonna need some time
>>43019981Hey all good not the best artist here (I am >>43017305 ) so take my comment with a big grain of salt. Anyway I wanted to discuss about drawing smut while arousing because sometimes when I am on that state of mind have some lewd ideas that loose their steam after said moment and I've read somewhere that you cannot be horny while drawing porn to keep the quality. What's your (or anyone here) take on that suggestion?
>>43019988https://files.catbox.moe/elg9cf.png this is how I would have personally done it to be honest, i tried to blend the edit in as seamlessly as humanly possible. I do prefer to give my ponies more show like asses but a little more plump and round shaped so keep that in mind. for the style of legs you draw what i did is I made them slightly less show styled and semi realistic in the hock. I'd recommend either studying the show to mimic the show style or studying artists who do legs in a stylized semi realistic way. the booty hole was a bit too big in relation to the ass so I shrunk it slightly, raised the cock and balls slightly to match the new ass height. edited the shoulder slightly too, and enlarged the dock. I'd personally recommend a bigger dock but that's more of a taste thing than anything. hope this helps
>>43020167oh wow that looks so much better! thank you so much for taking the time to do this, a visual representation is very useful!i was a bit worried about making the ass too big but i see now it ended up being way too small and not round enough haha. i love what you did with the legs, i will keep that in mind!>the booty hole was a bit too big in relation to the ass noted... it was my first time drawing a ponut so i think i got a bit too excited there>>43020043>I've read somewhere that you cannot be horny while drawing porn to keep the quality. What's your (or anyone here) take on that suggestion?i'm maybe not the best person to answer this question because i rarely ever draw and when i do, it is mainly for my own enjoyment, so i don't take it too seriously. but i think arousal to me is similar to feeling immensely inspired if not more powerful, same goes for writing too. it's much more likely for me to finish creating something if im horny than when im looking at things critically and fussing over every detail, as a result my lines are usually more confident and quick because i just want it to be done so i can use it for it's intended purpose i can't say whether the quality of your work will be better or worse, but for me it at least helps me be more productive even if i have to uh. take breaks
>>43020277hell yeah np brother. really as long as the ass isn't way bigger than the head or too disproportional to the body you're all good. I usually measure out my proportions using circles a rough measure with the head being the largest circle, followed by the ass, with the chest being the smallest to get a bean shape for pony bodies. >>noted... it was my first time drawing a ponut so i think i got a bit too excited thereits all good, a lot of the people in the fandom tend to give ponies absolutely ginormous siege gun sized ponuts. part of the reason is personal taste and or for balance since its also popular to give ponies absolute monster dump truck asses.I do hope I get to see you around more I like your style.
>>43019979Ooh, Sonata!>>43020167That new equine roundness of the rump and the arch of the back made it such a cute and perky little butt!>>43019137And I'm loving the cute face, slender, sweeping neck and the cute mane and tail! Just a very cute pony overall!
>>43015772Thanks for the redline, Anon. It helped me realize some of the mistakes I made. I drew the head too big, and I didn't quite understand the hips. I'll try to remember to work on them when I draw a human again

>>43022587I'd accept any cake from my wife! Say, why's it in her lap like that?
Anyone have a good ref for practicing gestures with ponies?
>>43022587holy shit two cakes
But what if mare... had TWO horns?Riveting revelations from the Mare Factory.And a filly as well! That's one and a half mares right there.Joking aside, just a mare and her filler getting some ice cream. Polite goth mares give me life.>>43021492Adorable valentine ponka, lunanon! Your fetlocks are always nice to see.>>43022587That look on her face almost makes me think it's a trap...>>43019122That's quite the tired pone! I can sympathize.
>>43023115oh hell yeah welcome back brother! I fucking love the experimentation with the manes and line art, the mare and filly are cute as fuck. smoochable
>>43023115It's funny how bicorn has gone from being a chimera style monster (of which, none of its composing parts were horse related) that eats husbands to two horned horse since its name is similar to unicorn. SMT does it too and makes it an evil, corrupting counterpart to the unicorn.Speaking of, I made pony versions of a handful of SMT demons a while ago. Maybe I shoudl make ones for all of the horse-like ones
Nips drew a pone a few months ago (at least going off the booru timestamp) and felt inspired to give him a shot.Not sure what his deal is but man is drawing with something in mind way easier then just rawdogging ideas. Which to be fair- having a reference usually makes things easier anyways.https://derpibooru.org/images/3681955Image I used for reference btwThe brush he uses for his stuff is honestly pretty great, I wish I could find it somewhere, it definitely seems to be something beyond default (and probably not even a krita brush)The chalk brush I'm using is pretty fun though. I forgot how nice it drew after mostly using a few different ink brushes. Feels like consistency between brushes is a little awkward as some just don't click as better as others.

>>43024458i think your mare is built incorrectly
Haven't drawn anything in forever, ended up breaking out of that with my rich factory owning old mare, Banana Cream, trying to convince (you) to sign a totally normal and fair contract to work at her banana milk factory
>>43025229You can't fool me, mare! I know you can't milk a banana!Cute art! The world can always use more mature mares
>>43023115>That look on her face almost makes me think it's a trap...What makes you think that?
>>43025516damn the later seasons were really out there with the plot and character designs

>>43023399Such a cute nerdy pone! I love your style anon, the face is so cute and expressive.
>>43027213>just make what you likeNah just had a rough day, my tism drives me to do something whatever is not popular or well receivedIt's not like I have so much to occupy my spare time
>>43027259It's okay, art is about having fun or something. I've been fucking pissed though lately so I can't draw for shit and my skills are quickly fading away. I have to find a new place to live and its an absolute nightmare because prices are insane and every listing is full of misleading bullshit and missing all the important information. I feel like I want to murder a rich person or something.
>>43027319Excelent piece of art and your life sounds quite and unfairly hard, hope you find some peace soon. (You) and every anon deserves it

>>43016185This is a really strange reach but this reminds me of something you would see in one of those early 2000s edutainment games featuring museums. Could see a mare rolling a ball out of a painting fitting snugly in one of those.
>>43031110qt
>>43031476Im glad you like it anon. I'm just a little crazy and it gets in the way of making coherent drawings, so it makes me happy when people find their own ideas in somthing i made.

Rise from your grave... And maybe reequip your items before you give your poor cleric a heart attack.Remembered a mare I drew forever ago and thought it'd be fun to revisit that idea again. Anon the Unfortunate and May Care the Save Mare who puts him back together again...>>43031940There are some things I feel 'decent' at but my cardinal sin has always been sticking to my comfort zone too much. Branching out and committing to actual poses and ideas that would take more effort than a cute mare standing around is something I'm still working on. God knows backgrounds are still something I need to just hunker down and learn properly, because mares deserve more than white voids and iffy furniture.

Love you bale. Here you go
>>43042248Yeah well kinda there was some marecock but for what I can think is a mix of being fetishy, having a slur and not the best talent on anatomy. Part of my interest to draw is really autistic and to portray some of my cringe kinks. At the same time instead of getting mad on them for not liking them or quit all together I see it like I see a room for improvement and have to learn deep inside myself that is gonna take time, effort and eat my own proudness to see my own mistakes.
>>43042523Eerie but serene and oddly beautiful at the same time, nice work anon
been a long ass time since I've done any of my country mares. I'm on a roll this week it seems.
