"How to draw a cartoon horse. Start out with a nice rectangle getting a little wider as it goes up. Give him some cartoon eyes. Give him some nice triangle ears. Top of the head. And give him a nice round base of his jaw. Here we have nostril smile. He is a happy horse. Make the neck kind of come down like that. And go into some feet. Some legs rather. Make the legs kind of get fatter as they come up. Well the front leg. Belly, back and here is the hind leg. Hind leg even more. Round it off and give him a little bit of a horse tail. Give him hooves. And don't ever forget mane. That a little thicker. And get a little bit of darkness towards the end and the back legs. One thing that makes the perspective look good when you make animal from the side make the back legs come down not quite as far as the front legs. And that gives the sense that they are further in the distance than the front legs. Give him some nice ground to run across. And there is our cartoon horse."
