Description When I first started doing pony vector art, I used a lot of traces just like this, but I've learned a lot since then and wanted to make an improved set. This time, I'm going to be more methodical and try to get the basic pieces so I can make art and such easier in the future. This is the first in that series. The full trace of the 8 frame female pony run cycle.

The file I uploaded is the original Illustrator vector file so you can recolor, re-position or do anything else you want. I want everyone to have it so we can make great pony art together

More will be coming soon.

IMPORTANT EDIT: For those who haven't realized yet, the image you see here is just the JPG preview of the Illustrator file that you can download. If you have Illustrator or a compatible program, you can see the original traces I did and modify each pose. Each one has a separate head, legs, and such so you can custom anything you want!

ALSO: Art style by Lauren Faust, pony poses and such copyright by Hasbro. I didn't realize this would make front page and a lot of people seem not to know that this is a My Little Pony blank.

EDIT AGAIN: Some folks have been animating this. Here's a gif: cybertronian-researcher.tumblr…

EDIT 2015.08.19 - I have a zip file with lots of resources that you can download. It wouldn't let me upload it so I had to rename it to an illustrator file, but if you open it as an archive or rename it to a .zip file, it should work.

It looks awesome >D

I can watch horses for hours, and I have a weak spot for horse animated running gifs. Their legs are just so graceful when they move, or even standing still. 'Course, I'll take watching live horses over a computer screen any day

Oh wow, thank you! This will be a lot of help- I never knew quite where to put all the legs- especially if I try my hand at a quick animation... I'll make sure to credit, if I use this in the future

This will serve as a great reference for any brony who is looking to do an animation or action style pic with their ponies! Perhaps it's time I tried my hand at it....

This is just wonderful! Oh my gosh you got everything every Clean, smooth and clear! In the future when ever Could you consider doing a Griffon Walk base? I been trying to study off of Gilda but every time it turns out pure sloppy, Just a request, I understand if you don't take them ^^

Hey, Its your art and your time! I still look forward to the Ponies! I just can't find a good Reference for the Griffons. And again its your time, No need to apologize, thank you so much for getting back to me about it though! I look forward to seeing more of your work!

Nah. I use these base models for my comics. I'm just making improved ones so I can do more faster.

DigitalClay In reply to Nimaru [2013-02-06 03:19:00 +0000 UTC]

So, I am kind-of new to this whole vector thing. Do you draw this out then make a vector trace of the drawing or do you just wing it and make a vector drawing without a sample image?

Nimaru In reply to DigitalClay [2013-02-06 04:59:10 +0000 UTC]

When you open the vector file, you'll see the screenshots I used as a base. I left them all in so people could work with them if they wanted.

If you really don't want people to know you are an assassin, you should probably not use the assassins creed logo for your icon. Use something cute and attention grabbing, like a kermit flail gif. Nobody has ever suspected me- DANG! RUN Fellefan! They know our secrets!
