Horse study

by Evatooru, January 7th 2026 © 2026 Evatooru
Done as part of a practice session with poses of 5 minutes in length (ended up taking 15-25 minutes...). My current goal is: Better understand human (and animal) anatomy, so I can render imagined poses

The anatomical details look good in my opinion. Maybe the body is a little short for a adult horse, looks more like a pony
Evatooru
Thank you!
Noted, will extend the body👍

I have think this is lovely - you captured the beautiful curves and arched neck that horses have. Horse legs can be challenging and these legs seem a bit stiff (but hard to know without seeing source). Something about the front/chest area seems angled slightly toward the viewer more than the rest of the body - it might have something to do with the extended leg where it connects to the torso.

Thank you!
Yes, I should probably be including the reference from now on...🙈
And the legs connecting to the body was maybe one of the most confusing things to me in this study, so thank for pointing it out!

The front legs would benefit from a bit of perspective i think, back legs too but not as obvious. good job on anatomy though 👍
Evatooru
Do you mean I should've made the hooves bigger (so that they appear closer to the viewer), like, to make the front legs a bit foreshoretened?🤔 The reference was a bit weird perspective-wise, I should probably include it the next time😅
Thank you!
