Description
HUGE FILE!! BEWARE!! D:--------
Sketchdump I threw together of some of Equestria's creatures. :3 I was surprised with how many folks asking me if I would ever draw some of the creatures and pets of the show, so... uh, well, here you go. o3o
Many of the characters I'm going to assume you guys can take a guess, but some of them are unnamed, like the bear we see with Fluttershy sometimes in the show (he's the second bear closest to the dragons)and that manticore from season 1's premiere; I also drew said manticore as a cub just for kicks. :3 Just to say, though, that first bear was referenced off of one of the studies from Brother Bear.
There's also a single headshot of the hydra.
The dragons are Spike and that dragon from the episode Dragonshy. The two big headed, short necked ones are Spike as an adult, one being my version of his greedy form and the other being the none-greedy one.
I threw Gilda in there too just because, both of her as a full adult and as a cub. C:
Oh! And that image of Winona standing next to the unfinished impression of Applejack in the bottom left corner? That's sorta kinda a size chart, because several of you have asked just how big my version of the ponies are. So here's a brief snippet for that:
The average pony size for stallions are 4'5 ft tall at the withers (the shoulder), the mares reaching an average of 4'0 ft at the withers. Applejack is 4'7 ft at the withers, making her the tallest of the Mane 6. Winona here is about 2 ft tall at the shoulder, and she's there merely to show just how big AJ is when standing next to an average sized dog.
But, uh.... yeah. The sketchdump itself is something of a mess, so I won't bother to talk about every single bit of it. o3o
As usual, if you have any questions feel free to ask me. C: And thanks a bunch for taking a gander! ^.^

Your style is pleasing to the eye, I always really enjoy looking at it, no matter what you draw.
This sketchdump is so awesome. It's amazing how chameleonic you are!
Loving every single design of yours, but of course especially the dragons (Even if the Manticore cub is cute as hell x33).
Great take on both Spikes, Greedy Spike really looks like a greedy dragon. To be honest, the greediest dragon I can think of.
Could imagine Spike (being like this) as the world's best hoarder ;3

The animals are cute, as is baby Gilda; adult Spike looks awesome; and thanks for this:

So, just big enough to be petted without having to stoop (if ponies would submit to being petted like dogs!). I imagine that if a pony stood on her or his hind legs they'd be tall enough to look most humans in the face?

Thanks!
And indeed, pretty much tall enough to be petted without having to stoop. But since the horse's neck is long, I'd assume if they stood on their hind legs they would end up just a tad taller than the average person.
But because I figured "pony" in the MLP universe basically means ANY sort of horse breed, they can very much range in size, height, and overall appearance (just like humans do). For example, Big Mac would be around 5'5 ft at the withers, while Celestia, being the tallest known pony alive, is a whopping 7 1/2' ft at the withers (a tad taller than the tallest known Shire of our horses).
But yeah. :3

Your estimate on Big Mac sounds about right; one friend of mine figured that he'd be tall enough to look you in the eye. While Celestia could do it, but she'd have to lower her head.
And my but Celly's a big girl. I'm guessing that Cadence and Luna are about Mac's size?

Actually, in my headcanon Cadence wouldn't be an alicorn, but instead a winged unicorn, so she wouldn't inherit that unusual tallness the alicorns have.
Instead, I see Cadence being about 4'9 ft at the withers, while Luna would be 7ft at the withers (she is in Requiem, anyway. In the story she wasn't imprisoned in the moon, so her "growth" wasn't stunted). Otherwise, I'd see Luna in canon being maybe 6ft at the withers, since she seemed to have grown in season 3. o3o

I figured on her being an 'alicorn minor', I.e., not full divine power level like Celestia and Luna.
And thanks for the answer.

Oh! I'm nothing special; just a fan who likes to draw the ponies. C: And as I've said to the other commenter, I think you draw just fine, judging by your gallery. ^.^
