It is my first attempt to draw Spirit. It´s not bad, but it looks more like a pony than a horse.


What do you think about it? Is it nice?

His head and face looks very nice. Nothing to add here, really. But proportions go off down at his body. His back area lost shape cmopletely, it should be more straight (horses have straight posture) and rounded. Legs can't look like sticks neither, they have some shape too and I think they should be longer.
It's a good start anyway and I'd only suggest you looking at real life horse pictures when you draw. Referencing is not a crime, a lot of good, famous artists do it. It's also a good way to learn proper anatomy and improve.

It is a wonderful first attempt. All though the ideas suggested are great ways to help improve. Hope I helped you!^^ Oh and one more thing, when drawing Spirit in my eyes there are two types of drawing. Anime, and realistic. If you intended on drawing anime eyes they are wonderful and do not need improved. But if prefer realistic eyes, try to draw less eyelashes, depending on a male or female and there personality. But it's still wonderful and again, a great first try.

Wow, now that is amazing!

it's just amazing

a beautifully drawn horse )))
