This is the worst tutorial I've ever seen. The proportions are terrible and you don't teach them how the legs actually work. Make a new one.

Thats what I just said. Give me actions, not words, and shile you're at it maybe a disclaimer to make sure any poor souls who come by this dont try to learn from it.

"shile you're at it"

... is that supposed to be 'shill' or 'shite'?

I mean, it works either way, but still...

My legs always end up too long and thin like an alicorns' XD I knew the basics but the part of the "pizza head" helped a bunch. Hoping one day I'll be as good as you.
Fingers crossed :3

Yeah, if i could only get to a damned printer, I could show you how much it improved.
I've been drawing that little thing from fallout equestria from the end of chapter 17 to about a quarter of chapter 18.

Also, about 15 minutes after I saw this guide I thought *Drawponies... I know that name...*
2 minutes later I realised that you're in our facebook-group, Swedish Bronies xD

I watched your panel in EQLA through youtube. I must say this is quite useful, and yes i did draw ponies (and pretty much everything else) without guide lines. This will help me a lot, thank you.

Noname1piece [2012-10-07 11:23:22 +0000 UTC]

Considering I lack fine motor control in the muscles in my hands (a bi-product of ADHD I believe) I can never make anything that looks that smooth, at least with a pencil. Doesn't matter how much I practice either, my hands just shake uncontrollably. BUT, this is a fine tutorial for anyone who has the least bit of skill. Love the comments ("Looks like a pizza" lol).

Quite confusing, yet, understandable. I must learn your ways of pony drawing and see if this shall work.
