Construction is the preliminary sketch with simple shapes such as spheres and cylinders that builds up the thing you're drawing. Essentially a simplified skeleton. You use construction to make sure that proportions and shape are correct. It's at this point you want to be corrected by others, not when the line art is finished.

It was a vague set of instructions that results in odd looking pony heads. I agree.

I need some general advice on ponies laying down like pic related. IGNORE THE HEAD. It's simply a placeholder. I'm really trying to give them more of a chub but am at a loss on how to do it.

It's really hard to find chubby pony references in a similar pose that isn't anthro so I've had to work from my fairly weak imagination. Fucking ridiculous.

I will be practicing this pose multiple times on paper.
>>
>>25773762

>forelegs coming out of the neck

I should know better.
>>
>>25773762
To be honest, I'm still kinda figuring this one out myself. There is plenty of foreshortening going on from this angle, and personally I find it a bit tricky to wrap my head around.
I'd suggest you try to figure out the pose from other angles to create a better three dimensional idea of this pose.

As for the chubiness, you're betetr of sketching up the pose as a regular pony and add the chub afterwards. See http://imgur.com/a/m7zQ2#66

so i have a question. I have been taking drawing classes for some months now and my profesor taught me that both for the face and body you need to apply construction, that means drawing crudelky in blue the proportions of the face, body and pose and then doing the real drawing in black over. He says one cant draw without construction. How do i apply construction to pony?
>>
>>25779078
Take what you've learned from human bodies and heads and apply it to pone. Experiment a lot. Does your teacher emphasis the importance of understanding how the features and nuances of the skeleton are important?

>head
>ribcage
>pelvic girdle

These are the three main components to drawing any mammal on this planet. If you know the bone and muscle structure of the human figure, you can apply it to pony. The rest is lots of practice and learning proportions.

Experiment a lot. Apply what you've learned to pone and make lots of mistakes.

the way i construct bodys is with a circle for the head, one for the torso and one for the waist. Fist i make a line and divide in eights then i place the circles and then i add shape and then muscles
>>
>>25779226
Also when I say"make lots of mistakes" its my way of emphasizing that mistakes are a good thing. It's important to make lots of errors so that you know what looks "wrong" and can learn and grow from it. You never know when you'll come across that happy accident that ends up giving your work personality. Even what's right and what's wrong are complete subjective from person to person.
>>
>>25779297
You do the same with pone and from there its a matter of pose and proportions. There's some guides in OP that can help. I'd say proportions takes precedent over everything since it can make or break the figure. If you've ever done gesture/figure drawing its especially true.

I used bits and pieces from several references. I could find a good picture with both the pose and facial expression I was looking for.

OK. Not sure if I really feel comfortable making any more drawings any time soon, though. I mean, I feel like I'm at a disadvantage. I'm guessing most people have been drawing since before they started watching the show, whereas I started about 5 or 6 months ago. Not saying that I couldn't reach that level eventually, but I feel like the expectation is for me to do a whole lot better.

Listen man
Take it a step at a time. Everyone starts somewhere. Drawing once and being upset with it isn't the path to victory. Keep drawing, following references and whatnot. Eventually your hands will get used to the proper motions of drawing, and you'll grasp things better.
Just remember all of us were shit too.
>>
>>25784576
I'll keep that in mind. Just a little stressful when you're just starting in your mid-20's.
>>
>>25784555
no offense, but the only disadvantage you're at is that most of the people here asking for critiques don't quote themselves correcting grammar. The focus on getting better instead of checking their post after it's already gone through. Again, if you're going to post and look for critiques go ahead and do that. Otherwise plainest yes no game in regards to actually attempting a drawing is only going to piss people off. Poster drawing asked for critiques and then apply them. Take people's advice into consideration even if you don't want to do them, such as figure drawing at least 20 minutes a day. The road to success and successful drawings begins with the elimination of your pity party and the application of good hard effort. Again I'm not trying to bash on, just tell me what needs to be done if you want to become a successful artist. Also use a single reference, not multiple references.

Also I'm going to quote something I said to someone on booru:

>Don’t put so much emphasis on what other artists are doing. You should focus on you and what you’re capable of. If anything, let other artist’s works inspire you to be at your best. If you worry about "catching up" then you’ll just bury yourself into a hole that you may not be able to get out of.
>Drawing and art in general takes time and dedication. Just imagine the artist you want to be a year from now and stick to that goal. Take it day by day, week by week, month by month. It’s a gradual process but every line and every sketch adds up and sooner or later you’ll make a piece that will make yourself go, "Wow. I did that." But you don’t stop. You keep going. Keep pushing the envelope. Make every sketch better than the last.

This is a great attitude to have.

I know from personal experience that I'm my biggest challenge. Whether it's depression or laziness. I'm the problem if I'm drawing like shit or can't draw something.

Artist block doesn't even phase me anymore because I know I can push through it and I know how I'm going to react and what i need to do next.

Good luck.

I get the feeling you're making part of the cranium stick out too much, giving your skulls a weird shape. That cheek is definitely sticking out too much, again, giving the skull an odd shape. The eyes are also not set in the skull properly for the perspective you gave the entire work.

As I said before; I really like your bodies and I think it's a good style as long as you're being consistent with it. The thing is you need to imagine these very thin limbs and how they'd look on a pony that was doing a simple, standing pose and think to yourself if they make sense. And if they dont' make sense; perhaps finding a way to make them make sense and keep the style is a better way. There's a lot of depth and form in your bodies that I wish I could get in my own works.

If I were to recommend anything it would be to practice pony heads and work on softening up those muzzles just a bit. If you want them to be blocky, find a way to make them less on the uncanny valley side of things and learn to connect the jawline to the neck properly. Maybe draw a couple of heads attempting these fixes and post the result and we can provide feedback.

My child arrived just the other day
He came to the world in the usual way
But there were wars to wage and there were battles to fight
He learned to walk while I was away
And he was talking 'fore I knew it and as he grew
He'd say, "I'm gonna be like you, dad
You know, I'm gonna be like you"
And the cats in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little Pony blue and the mare in the moon
"When you coming home, dad?" "I don't know when
We'll get together then, son, you know we'll have a good time then"
When my son turned ten just the other day
Said, "Thanks for the gun, dad, come on and let's play
Can you teach me to shoot?" I said, "Not today I got a Earth to save" he said, "That's okay"

And he walked away but his smile never dimmed
Said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah
You know, I'm gonna be like him"
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little pony blue and the mare in the moon
"When you coming home, dad?" "I don't know when
We'll get together then, son, you know we'll have a good time then"

This is a very crude method and I'm sure there's a better way to approach it but I would start by just tracing over the image, finding out where the joints are in relation to each other and finding out the major forms of the body. After tracing I would sketch off to the side, using the traced parts as a guide and just play with the pose until I can get it proportioned like a pony.

Judging from where the back of the skull meets the spine in relation to where the tail is, the body is indeed twisting a bit so maybe try to figure a way to incorporate that.
>>
>>25789512
Yeah, the twist confused me. I just might do the tracing method you suggested.
>>
>>25789520

I'm sure there are better ways but I'm still a novice so I work with what I know.

Hopefully someone comes along to give better advice because I'd really like to know as well. I usually just do lots of sketches until I stumble on something that can work.

A scene of Celestia and Prince Blueblood having a conversation in a smallish room. Blueblood is drunk and shouting angrily, waving a wine bottle around in his ponykinetic horn-field. Celestia is sad and serious--on the verge of tears, even--and has a wing over his shoulder, trying to calm and/or comfort him.

Notebook fag posting again. (I'm just going to finish out my notebook before getting new paper. I don't have too many pages left anyway) Looking for critiques to help me get better.

Things I already see off the bat:
>giant head
>ear is crooked
>dat ass
>eggman mane

So, yeah. Please critique, but please be gentle.
>>
>>25793433
-practice lightly sketching circles for general practice. filling a page with circles a day can sometimes help more than you realize.
-the cutie mark expression is really nice! don't lose that. expressionism can be the hardest to translate to paper.
-a little more squished/slanted head syndrome
-forelegs and hindlegs should be roughly the same size at their bottoms

Keep going man. In a month, you'll be shocked. Also, instead of buying a sketch pad, you can opt for the cheaper 500 pack of lineless printing paper and hold onto a folder.

Don't let it stress you out too much. You can't fix problems in a day or even a week. It has to be a gradual learning process. These connections in your brain take time to cement and the key is to be consistent. Draw everyday.

Good luck.

I'm >>25794598 if you really want to know.

I don't focus on the contours too much when it comes to muzzles. I -used- to and it took a while to break the habit and understand things. I rely on nostril placement to give the muzzle depth and size.

I'm following the form and flow of the entirety of the cheek area. It goes from the tip of the muzzle to under eyes, back to the jawline and back to the bottom of the muzzle. >>25785697 is an example of that as well though I am not the one who made it. I actually discovered these relationship about a month ago and have been learning to apply the idea consistently. You can see that "mask" shape in pic related. Memorize that shape and you're golden.

I inquire the knowledge to be had has already gracefully fallen into your mist, as you are aware of such mistakes in said drawing. Although said mistakes have yet to be fixed, I'm sure you have the know how to get it done correctly. Imposing the picture even has a way to get better, It is rather divine if i say so myself. No need to ruin such lovely pastor and grace displayed with horrid red lines..

>friend with actual talent

I hate to be a dick but I don't see it. I don't get the feeling that any construction was attempted or that effort was put in to match the proportions and looks of a pony. This looks like it was sketched in less than a minute using an already stylized piece of pony art or something.
>>
>>25797483
I'll tear this shit apart...

Horn is tiny and isn't even on the center of her forehead. The mane gives the head an awkward shape. It attempts to give form to the skull but fails. Everything else is symbol drawing and style.

But honestly, mediocre. No love has gone into making that picture.
>>
>>25797890
>No love has gone into making that picture.

Yes. That is the exact feeling I got. Even the shittiest pony art that has been posted here has had some kind of love out into it that shows. This was phoned in.

Well the head looks slightly bashed in behind her ear.
The snout could certainly be made shorter and cuter so to speak. Look at the jaw specifically, which should be further into her head than it is currently.
Her neck also looks a bit odd, almost as if she's swallowing something yet isn't. Try to get it a bit smoother.
Her (from her perspective) right eye isn't as wide as her left one, but the pupil still feels that way. I think the whole deal with the eye following along the edge of the head might be what's making it look wrong. Practice getting some better from there, use references.
The top of the snout goes awfully far to get between her eyes. I guess this is another issue coming from the fact it's pouting out too far, so if you fixed this previous problem then it should align naturally.
The hind legs look kinda boneless. Try to get some more meat on that ass and a real knee with a leg coming from it. Okay that probably didn't explain much. Hm. Imagine the hoof is actually just hanging by a sock from her knee. It needs a proper bone to connect the two here. Pic related exaggerate it a bit but it should get the point across.
Mouth could use some more expression.

Listen to this man/these men, if you don't get this stuff established before moving on to getting gud, you'll be like me struggling for at least an hour a piece just to get the pose right. And that's when I'm already somewhat familiar with the pose and have drawn it before. Learning construction when you're already decent is hard when it's so easy to just do what you already know.

How long do you plan on staying? I've seen drawfags come and go so often that when I see a newcomer I can't help but be a little cynical. I've honestly thought about leaving to other pastures because i feel in the middle ground of "I can't help everyone because my knowledge is limited" and "asking for help when I need it is pointless because no one can really give the advice I need." It's a lonely fucking feeling.

I've been on the /mlp/ drawthreads since /mlp/ was first created... But I only just started not posting anonymously like a few months ago. I wish I were more active though because I personally love helping people learn and making some random person's day with a cute drawing, if I can. And I feel here is a great place to see if "regular" people like your art, since "artists" tend to have different tastes than non-artists.

I'd love to stay on the threads for as long as I have the time because I honestly do have fun here.

If you feel you're knowledge is "limited," why not go study up some more; the internet has a million free resources. Just make sure you're learning from experienced sources.

Just draw and have fun :3c

I was going to redline this then realized that it's just your proportions are just way off. Follow the guides in the OP. "Box-up" your subject. Practice these proportions. They are ideal for a reason. Once you get comfortable with it you can begin to play with it to find out what is appealing.

I drew traditional using pen and ink for over a year before going digital. Erasers and control+Z create bad habits and can even hinder progress. When it comes to traditional, I'd rather redraw something than waste time erasing unless it's a piece I'm working to finish.

No one has to do things the way I do. This is just the ways i handle the drawing process.

Yeah I feel ya. I think all my old stuff really sucks but the ideas were sometimes still okay, good inspiration sometimes.

Man I forgot I tried making pony comics like 4 years ago. Looks a bit cringy but it also makes me kinda wanna do it again. OH THE MEMORIES

Making cringy art, that's once thing.
Having the audacity to post that art here unironically, that's a whole other level.

I made this while BiscuitAnon was still writing his EqG CYOA, that was summer 2013.
I thought it looked good, holy shit.
