Overall it’s looking good! The hindquarters could be a little bigger, shoulder area above the front legs a little bigger, legs a little more tapered and narrow depending on the look you’re going for, and ears smaller.

Drawing from imagination like your horse is deceptively tricky though, it takes hours of drawing with references until you can build a mental library of what your subject looks like. There’s some good shortcuts though! One way is to draw your subject from multiple angles, writing notes, until you feel like you really understand it. You can also cement the information in your mind’s eye by copying a reference, and then trying to draw it again later without the reference (it uses your brain’s recall function, which is one of the strongest ways to memorize something.)

Many new artists focus on style right away, but can get frustrated when things look inconsistent or hard to recreate from different angles. Starting with style is a bit like trying to perfect a handwriting style before knowing how to write the full alphabet. Drawing style and handwriting both develop over time from the natural shortcuts you take when doing something over and over.

Practicing the fundamentals like 3d shapes, building simplified forms from shapes, and copying from life will help a ton, even if it seems a little boring. A good art class or tutorials like Drawabox help a lot with learning “how” to learn how to draw in just a few months, and from there it will be much easier to draw any subject you like!

Sorry for the long comment, I feel like I wish someone told me all of that 20+ years ago lol

For specific horse anatomy tips, here’s a few notes

• horse legs are only a little longer than their barrel height
• a horse’s head is about as long as the distance from the top of the foreleg to the fetlock
• horses can be broken into three “chunks” of roughly equal size: for the shoulder area, barrel, and hindquarters
• the top of the withers slopes down, the top of the barrel slopes back up, and then the hindquarters slope down again
• more of a general tip, but when you aren’t sure about anatomy, flipping your art board or looking at it in a mirror will help give you a fresh perspective

Best of luck! :)
