Here is the video of how to draw a horse step by step. As you can see it is drawn on a computer. Already in the image before starting the video, you can see how your drawings of horses should look once they have seen it in the full tutorial. As I said before: it is a cartoon. A very large head, a huge but very short body and skinny and short legs. They are the typical characteristics of the cartoons drawings. Once you learn to do this tutorial, you will be able to make your own changes to the horse’s drawing, so that you are the one who decides the look. You could incorporate a very skinny, famished body, stylized legs, a much larger mouth, slanted eyes or whatever you can think of.

But as I had promised you at the beginning, not only did I leave you the video, but we will see the same thing with step-by-step images.

Drawings of horses in images

We’re going to start doing how to draw a horse step by step so you don’t get lost, if you don’t have enough with the video. Start by making a complete circle that will be an eye, then a small arc that is the start of the nose and on the other side will go the other eye, which is a little covered by the nose.

In this new step of the horse drawing we already put the pupils to the eyes and make a large curve to be the nose of the horse. Remember that we are making drawings of cartoon horses, therefore in this you can start to exaggerate as you want the size. Anyway my advice is that first try to get them with the proportions you see in the images, and then you are already making your own changes and tweaks.

Now you have to keep doing the left ear. It is a very simple way but that begins to give a clear format of the full head of our cartoon horse.

Now we start working the horse’s hair. In this case it is what remains above the eyes. As we are making cartoons of horse drawings, we can take the licenses we want. For that we are the owners of the drawing. That is why we make a hair, as if it were a bangs. These types of details are also what make up the drawing in question is a cartoon and not a reproduction of reality.

How to draw a horse – Head complete

So that the horse’s head can be terminated, in this step we will complete the mane. Here we make a coat that falls along the neck of the horse that is not drawn here. It is the hair itself that will configure the upper part of the neck.

As the hair is what determines the upper part of the neck, now we are going to make the lower part of the neck, and it is continued with the horse’s chest.

Drawings of complete horses

We will continue with our drawings of horses until they are completed because there is little left. Now we are going to make the hind leg. In this case, look carefully at the shape, because that is what any quadruped is not drawn correctly and the results are quite ugly. The hind leg, as for the thigh, is as if it were in the backward direction, then down the second part straight. Practice a lot with this detail until it turns out natural, because that will help you make other animals, such as dogs.
