Description here is a pic you can you for refference for mycharacter: Jewel.

Jewel is leadmare of Maverik's herd, and she is Maverik's soulmate! I hope you like her! She has funny eyes though - they are not symmetrical (example: [link] )

She is Tia's opposite! (and pure evil!)

Hmm... I should realy draw her more often
She ISa very smexyful mare!

The reason the colouring is so crapola is because I was trying out my new prisma colour pencils that i got for christmas! They are realy good pencils, but Im just not used to them yet

Ooh, this is one of my favourites of yours. I love the depth of shading and the muscles on her hind legs, they look great.

I would point out that her head and neck look a little large for her body; however, the detail in her head is exquisite. As a general rule of porportion, a horse's head should be about 1/5 the height of his body, although for a cartoon style it can be slightly larger. I found a great tutorial on realistic proportioning if you want to go that way, but if you want to stay with a more stylized drawing, it may not be very helpful to you. [link]

The shines in her mane and tail also turned out really well. A very narrow shine along the top of her mane where it turns over would make it look more three dimensional. [link] You can see the thin shine line in that picture. Sorry, couldn't find a better one.

The musculature just looks really great, and the anatomy in her legs is absolutely top-notch. Her whole hind end, as well as her face, just look wonderful. Great work.

You're welcome! Feel free to critique my own art if you like, I think it's one of the fastest ways to improve. Another helpful thing is after you finish a sketch and are getting ready to line/color, flip your drawing horizontally. (If it's traditional, flip it over and hold it up to the light so you can see through it.) For some reason, that just really points out what sort of things are out-of-balance, or if the horse is tilted forward or something. No clue why it points things out, it just does.

I don't remember who first pointed it out to me to do that, but I have been using that little trick ever since.

shadowdachampionpony In reply to Unwoven [2009-01-02 19:53:06 +0000 UTC]

hehehe - well, its just about the pencil pressure, and a rubber is always handy I also used a light brown to give the shine - sometimes you can carry off blue if youre realy good, but sadly I cant lol - its just about experimenting
