Description

Edit: Everything. Please re-read.

I've seen a LOT of people get sizes wrong sometimes when using other people's vectors, and it personally drives me batty. So, I've compliled a bunch of sihlouettes to hopefully help things.I've also added new poses and a better description.
(DOWNLOAD FOR FULL SIZE)

In order, left to right:

Foal: Pound and Pumpkin Cake
Filly: The CMC, Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, and others.
Mare: Rarity, Rainbow Dash, AppleJack, etc
Ascended Pony: Princess Twilight Sparkle (Note Twilight IS TALLER than the other Mane 6 now)
Colt: Background Ponies like Caramel, Noteworthy, and the male Wonderbolts.
Griffon: Gilda
Royal Stature #1: Princess Cadance
Stocky Male #1: Prince Shining Armor
Stocky Male #2/Stallion: Big Macintosh
Stallion Guard w/accessories: Royal, Lunar, and Crystal Guard. Colts wearing armor should therotically be shorter.
Royal Stature #2: Princess Luna
Royal Stature #3: Princess Celestia
Changeling Queen: Queen Chrysalis
Draconequus: Discord

(Oh, please note that I KNOW this image isn't the 3000 pixels high that most groups require. If you 'properly' sized this, the width would be 17,000 pixels long, and no one wants to deal with that. 10k is enough.)

I do not own My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Looking at your gallery, there are many things you didn't credit initially, or still haven't.
I don't want you using my art.

Though this is helpful, will you eventually add Babs Seed? She is somewhat stockier than the Cmc, and that new stallion Troubleshoes Clyde needs to be compared... Hopefully I do not appear too demanding.

Breezies are much too small. Making this chart a size where they'd be properly visible would extend it too much, sorry.

TheShadowStone In reply to StarWisherMidnight [2014-04-16 23:30:14 +0000 UTC]

Go look at the most recent episode, Testing Testing 1 2 3. Twilight has a slight curve in her neck the other mares do not, her horn is elongated, and she's slightly taller.

They did. Even with Princess Twilight Sparkle Part 1 she had a different body puppet rig than all the other ponies.

Just out of curiosity, where would a pony like Fleur de Lis fall on this scale?Β  I'm guessing she would be the same size as Cadance, since she's taller than Rarity, but shorter than Fancy Pants?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

TheShadowStone In reply to kaylathehedgehog [2014-01-15 19:13:45 +0000 UTC]

I would say just a tad-bit smaller than cadence. She has the royal pony body type, or 'super-model' body, but Cadance's head is a little more rounder than Fleur's, giving her that extra height.

GJTProductions [2014-01-11 05:09:59 +0000 UTC]

Care to speculate why the guards are so much bigger than average ponies? (My theory is there are "hybrid" bloodlines of earth/pegasus and earth/unicorn that naturally can produce body types like the guards have. Twilight's family is one of those "hybrid" bloodlines.)

AgentTasmania [2014-01-04 04:33:54 +0000 UTC]

Where you have 'colt' you want 'stallion'. All adult males are stallions.
Foal is unisex for infant (<1 year in real horses)
Colt and Filly are male and female respectively for juvenile (1-4 years). Pre-pubescent colts and fillies in the show seem to be about the same size.
Stallion and Mare are male and female respectively adults (4+ years ).
Equestrian ponies likely live longer and mature slower than real horses, probably closer to humans.

The one you have as 'Stocky Male #2/stallion' I'd call 'Draft', since they also have the long fetlocks (hoof hair) commonly associated with heavy horses.

The chart itself, however, is excellent.

Would you mind if I used this in a little thing of my own?
I mean to add a theorised height graph and some annotations.

I think all stallions should be the same stature(aproximatley)

TheShadowStone In reply to drawcreator [2014-01-02 19:13:10 +0000 UTC]

Well there are stallions and then there are colts. Even blueblood is taller than Big-Mac, and if you go and look at Snips, Snails, Featherweight, and Pipsqueak, they all have varying sizes as well. Not all ponies are created equal.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

drawcreator In reply to TheShadowStone [2014-01-03 13:51:38 +0000 UTC]

I know ,but i mean the basic should be the same,then the other.

Example Big Mac and Shining Armor shouldn't be an exception in stature,they should be int the basic stallion stature.

But colts it's diferent cos they're growing up and everypony at its rithm,rigth?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

TheShadowStone In reply to drawcreator [2014-01-04 17:14:58 +0000 UTC]

Compare Shining to Big-Mac. Shining is the ONLY one with his body type--the jawline, the way the legs connect to the body. Big Mac is the only one in ALL of ponyville besidesΒ recolors that has his rounded head, Clydesdale hooves, andΒ stocky bodytype.Β They are the exceptions. All other colts are the same.
Not all ponies are equal.

Humans and ponies were never in the same universe. There is no accurate size comparison.
And really, pointing out everything that can be missing will get no one nowhere. I did this much and revamped the size comparison, no one can please everyone.

Someone compared angel bunny and a bunny in human fluttershy's backpack and found that the ponies are about up to their waists. (They really are little ponies!)

I thought about putting him in, but decided against it. I may put him in later.
Spike would be roughly a filly's height, and his head crestΒ might top out at around the jaw-line of the average mare.
