So, you've been watching some My Little Pony videos or reading some My Little Pony books and thought you'd like to a draw an Alicorn Princess pony like Princess Cadance or Princess Luna? This article will guide you step by step through how to do this. Follow the steps exactly if you like the final image, add some ideas of your own if you are feeling creative.
Steps
-
Start by drawing a round circle. The circle should be about 5 centimeter (2.0 in) in diameter, or width. Draw it near the top of the page. This will become the face.
-
Draw another two circles, one directly beneath the first one and another roughly 10–12 centimeter (3.9–4.7 in) away, toward the other side of the page, about 2 centimeter (0.8 in) higher than the 2nd circle. These circles should measure about 3.5 to 4 centimeter (1.4 to 1.6 in) in diameter. Link the circles in a curved line. Don't worry your pony looks unrealistic compared to a real pony, it's supposed to!Advertisement
-
Draw four curved legs coming from the lower circles. Curve the legs towards the direction of the highest circle's side of the page. The front legs should be roughly 13 centimeter (5.1 in) long, and the back legs about 15 centimeter (5.9 in) long, making the hooves appear level.
-
Draw a line at the highest circle (the head). The line will be the iconic horn. Draw an ear approximately 2 centimeter (0.8 in) away from the horn, keeping it on the head (the horn should be around 4-6cm, depending on the princess, and the ear around 2cm).
-
Draw two curved lines coming from the line making the pony's back, one seeming further behind from the other. Draw two more lines coming from the first lines, curving them upwards. These lines will make up the skeleton of the wings.
-
Draw in a curved line coming from the flank, creating the tail structure. Make this line as long or short as you want.
-
Search for images online as to which pony you want to draw. You should be fine filling in the details from there. You can add your own details if you like.
-
Erase the structural lines, and the helping lines you started out with. Now you can color your pony however you like! Done!Advertisement
