Bring the front hooves forward, they need to support the weight of the chest, neck, and head.';

'>>7115267
This looks a bit better
A BIT';

'>>7115270
The front legs are still angled too far back. They need go almost straight down. And push the hind hooves slightly farther back while you're at it, but just slightly. Sorry for the silliness in picrel, it's the only decent horse drawing I have.';

'Behold
The most appealing horse I have ever drawn. Sill looks like shit';

'>>7115287
I love him. He looks so grumpy lol.';

'>>7115297
Of course he is grumpy. His creator didn't bother to spend a couple of hours study his anatomy';

'How do I make better leg sketches?';

'Good question OP. I've only ever drawn 1 horse, and it looked bad, so I tried to make it look more Disney to help fit.';

'I heard many artists say horses are the perfect animal to focus, cuz if you master them you can draw all the others. Is this true?';

'>>7115791
No anon, that's the kangaroo';

'>>7115797
Whats that?';

'>>7115889
A kangaroo? Its a marsupial native to Australia. I'm surprised you've never seen one before.';

'>>7115797
proko's dog-turned-kangaroo reminds me of dignity';

'>>7115797
that's not the kangaroo. that's complete misinfo that he's conveniently spread because it makes him look marginally better. he was trying to draw a person there. you know, the subject he spends 99% of his art time drawing.
pic related is the "kangaroo". except that's also not true. he was trying to draw a dog, and someone in the chat said it looks like a kangaroo, and he's since went with it being a kangaroo because, again, it makes him look better to have tried to draw an unfamiliar animal than an animal he literally has as a pet.';

'>>7115915
>No, he was trying to draw a dog!
Anon, I don't give a fuck if he was trying to draw a stickman or the mona lisa. It looks like an absolute travesty. It in no way makes him look better by that being a dog or not. Check your autism once in a while';

'>>7115940
Try reading that again, slowly.';

'You can apply this to any mammal.
Use reference.
Study the skeleton and visible muscle structure, simplify the shapes. (cubes, cylinders, spheres, etc.)
Construct the animal with any method you feel comfortable with, keep it loose.
Draw 3 different poses from refence and then 1 from imagination.
Isolate problem areas into their own studies. If you have trouble with front legs, draw those.
Keep drawing with purpose.';

ye they're some fucking bastards i swear';

'>>7116987
I can understand the concern, but I am legitimately trying to learn how to draw horses because I want to draw fantasy or historical stories, where horses are used a lot.';

'>>7120300
ur doing well anon but horses are a lot bigger than that compared to humans

why don't you go visit a zoo or a farm nearby and get a sense of horse IRL';

'>>7120359
IK, but tbqh I was referencing Mongolian horses since they have the best pics online. And I know, I drew a Gaul on a Mongolian horse.';

'>>7123419
it looks good, you have European sensibilities';

'>>7123430
I think the hind legs are still too big though, and while I might have gotten better on profile, front and different perspective is another question. I can't run forever from intensive anatomy study';

it doesn't have to be 100% correct, looking good is enough';

I like left better';

'>>7115263
learn the skeletal anatomy of the object you're trying to draw, then you add the muscle/flesh to it, and so on , till you can draw the subject according to your desired specs.

or stumble upon the shape, i do a little of both';
