I constantly see people drawing the legs wrong, mostly drawing them like a dogs/cats

So I wanted to make a simple example page for people to look at if they want, equine legs very differently than canine/feline legs

I see a lot of people struggle with the front legs, remember, horses have a KNEE in their front legs. They bend in the direction yours would. They don't have an elbow/straight leg like a canine.

Horses legs are also not noodles, they have certain joints. They also have a bend right before their hoof, no higher besides the knee.

If you have trouble, make sure you look at pictures/videos of real horses! It'll help you understand how they move and stand, so when you draw a pony it won't look off in some way.

But for the love of god, remember their front knee, they front leg don't bend the opposite way!

~FunFact: When a horse/pony runs, one foot is always touching the ground!~
