Relatively recently (on the scale of an animated movie) a kind, bright, bright and positive cartoon about funny and extraordinary ponies “Friendship is a miracle!” Appeared on the screens of Russian viewers. And all the young viewers of the “Carousel” channel literally stuck to the screens of their TVs.
What is the problem?
Of course, every child who has seen this wonderful, almost Soviet (in terms of emotions and drawing traditions) cartoon will want to have one of her pony girlfriends at home. That is why parents rush headlong into toy stores and buy a high-speed Rainbow, a shy Flotershy, a mischievous Pinkie-pie, hardworking Apple Jack and other girlfriends. But there is a simpler, cheaper and more original way! You can quickly and easily draw a pony with your child, such as Twilight Sparkle. And how to draw Princess Sparkle, you can learn from this article. It should be noted that this method of acquiring a beloved heroine will positively affect not only the family budget, but also the relationship with the child. Indeed, joint work unites, makes friends, reconciles. And this is really important. Most importantly - the weather in the house!
An important point!
It is worth saying that all the lines that are drawn in red pencil are sketchy, that is, they can very well be corrected. That is why try not to put too much pressure on the pencil.
How to draw a sparkle? Start
The drawing of a friendly pony should begin by drawing two figures: an oval (body) and a circle (head) at a short distance from each other. This distance is approximately equal to the radius of the circle you draw. The circle, by the way, needs to be divided by an arc into approximately two equal parts.
Now we connect the torso with the smooth arcuate line to the beginning of the middle arc on the circle - this is the neck of our princess. From this point we begin to draw the horse’s ear (two connected arcs, one of which we do not bring to the circle-head). Then we begin to draw a bang, as shown in the figure.
A start. “But how can you draw a pony Sparkle without eyes?” Your child will ask if you stop at the first step of this lesson. To prevent this from happening, we will begin to draw the face of our pony.
In your eyes ... or How to draw a Twilight Sparkle in full view
So, let's continue. Sparkle, unlike many ponies, is also a unicorn. That is why you need to draw her magnificent horn. Pay attention to the fact that it is not sharp, as is customary to think, but a little rounded. Remember to apply spiraling stripes to the pony horn.
Now it’s worth giving the ball a more or less animal-like shape. To do this, draw a nose. It consists of two arcs: one starts from the bangs, and the second from the end of the first, and goes to the circle-head. You should draw another arc asymmetrically first, and still exactly the same arc, only on the other side of the first.
Now begins the drawing of the gorgeous eyes of our horse. Sparkle would not be Sparkle, if not for her glowing eyes. Therefore, it can rightly be said that the stage of drawing the eyes is the most important of all presented here.
Sparkle's eyes are two large ovals, in them are two slightly smaller. Inside the small ovals, we draw very small ovals - these are the pupils. And in the upper part of the second (middle) oval, going beyond its edges, we draw a figure that is somewhat reminiscent of an oval, only a little more crooked - this is the light of the sparkle's eyes. We carefully draw eyelashes - they are both on top and bottom of a large oval, moreover, do not forget that one eye is slightly covered with bangs, so you do not need to draw upper eyelashes there.
Now we draw a neat arcuate strip in the area of the nose (the two arcs that we drew before drawing the eyes) - this will be the mouth of our princess. We put a point a little higher - these are the nostrils. How to draw Sparkle at this stage is clearly visible in the following figure.
Well, what kind of legs, what a tail!
Now, after drawing a pony Sparkle is not so difficult for us, we have to “put it on its feet”, that is, draw a body, legs and the main decoration of a pony - a magnificent bright tail.
To do this, pay attention to the oval body. Conditionally divide it into two parts vertically. In front, we begin to draw the leg, as shown in the figure. Having thus shaped not only the leg, but also a part of the body (or rather, the abdomen), we connect the sparkles chin with the leg above the knee in a smooth line. Then we draw the second front leg, which stands as if behind the first.
Now, in stages, we begin to draw the hind legs of the pony. To do this, we draw an arc from the horse’s neck, breaking off at about the level where the second front foot begins to peek out from behind the first. And already from this point we begin to draw a foot with a hoof. The second hind leg is drawn as a reflection of the first.
The pony tail is “assembled” from three lines - two arcs connected by a straight line. It should turn out exactly trimmed, geometrically correct. The tail looks like a bang of Sparkle.
How to draw a pony Sparkle in the third stage is shown in the following figure in red pencil.
Little details ...
So, the main part of the work is behind, and now there is no need to worry about how to draw the Sparkle. It remains only to add the distinctive features of this first-class pony.
Of course, the main decoration of the horse is the mane. At Sparkle, it consists of two quadrangles connected together. Simply put, a mane, like a bang and a tail, is geometrically machined. After you draw a mane, it’s worth adding a couple of lines - how to create strands so that they do not look like a continuous canvas.
Now the most important thing is the distinguishing sign of a pony, a sign of her magical belonging, her talent and strength. This sign is a magic spark. They are located on the hip. And they are drawn very simply: one big snowflake star and around it four more are exactly the same, but smaller. How to draw such a snowflake? Draw a cross and draw a vertical line across it - the star is ready.
Now your wonderful pony can only be painted - and even now in the cartoon.
Now that you know how to draw Twilight in stages, you will always find what to do with your child on a rainy Sunday afternoon!
