How to Draw a Heart-Shaped Alicorn

Aww!~ This tutorial was really fun! Okay, today, we will all be learning how to draw in the popular style of the "Heart-Shaped" Pony. As you all probably see, the pony has a nice, heart-shaped mane that flows into one tip. This style is quite popular, and it's not too hard to draw, if you know how to do it! ;) But, as always, there are a few things to this tut. You don't have to add the horn, nor the wings, whether your drawing calls for it or not. The hair can also be drawn more free-handedly, but this is the official design. So have fun everyone!~ See you next time!

STEP 4.

Draw the curved back of the pony, and finish up by drawing in the hind leg. REMEMBER TO USE NICE, CURVED LINES. NO CHOPPY OR STRAIGHT LINES! IT WON'T LOOK NATURAL! Then, move on to step 5.

Curve the top of the tail directly along the heart shape that you drew in step one. Then, slowly and carefully start drawing out the tail below the pony's hind leg.

This is an optional step, depending on what kind of pony you are drawing. Horn, wings, or both. You want to draw those in now. If you're drawing an Earth Pony, just move on to the next step.

That is a much more difficult process. I suggest using Photoshop, but the rest, I do not know. I don't affiliate myself with animations.
@Snowiceflake

Basically, you either can look one up on deviantart.com, or you can make one. However, it has to be 50px X 50 px. So, basically, you go to your profile, and you click the update icon speechlesson, where it says "Update Icon". But, I'm pretty sure you've got it already :) And, thanks for the comments!~

It's fine. Not a problem. But yeah. Exactly. It's a popular concept, so I just decided to draw it out. It's going to look similar to the ones you see on the internet, because it's all the same style, if you know what I mean. smile
