Questions and answers
What is the easiest horse pencil drawing?
A horse head with a mane or a pony: their outlines are simple and have few details. Once they feel easy, move on to the horse in profile and the galloping horse.
Which pencil should I use for a horse drawing?
A regular HB pencil is good for the outline: its lines are light and easy to erase. For the mane, the tail and the shadows on the neck, use a soft 2B or 4B pencil.
How do I draw a horse mane in pencil?
Do not draw single hairs. Draw a few long curved locks from the neck down, make their edges darker and keep the middle light, so the mane looks full.
