Draw a Horse Jumping 10

Step 10: Use the triangle-like shape as a guide to draw one of the horse's ears. Use a series of curved lines for the front part of the mane. Add the tip of the ear on the other side too.

Step 11: Use the initial circle and arc as guides to draw the rest of the horse's head. Follow the basic path of the guides as you darken the lines and shape the head.

Step 12: Use the lines under the body as guides to draw the horse's legs that are on this side. Lightly sketch the shape of the folded front leg as you follow the path of the line. Make the joints a bit rounder where the guide line bends. When you get the structure of the leg right, darken the lines. Add the square-like hoof at the end of the leg as you darken the lines. Horses fold their front legs up close to their bodies as they jump to clear obstacles. Use the line on the left as a guide to draw the hind leg on this side of the body. Lightly sketch the shape of the leg as you follow the basic path of the guide. Darken the lines only once you have the structure right. The bottom of the horse's hoof should face backward. Add the joints where the guide line bends.

Step 13: Draw the horse's mane and tail by using the initial lines and shapes as guides. Draw the mane as a series of curved lines along the back of the neck. Don't draw every individual hair strand. The mane is blowing backward, so it should go directly over the neck. You can make it longer if you'd like. Follow the basic path of the line as you darken the shape of the horse's tail. Draw the basic outline of the tail using curved lines instead of every individual hair strand.

Step 14: Use the rest of the shapes and lines to draw the horse's body. Darken the lines as you follow the path of the initial guides.
