Background Pony #A357
  1. the poll is the dorsal end of the skull and corresponds to the nape of the neck, not the midway between the ears and the eyes  
  2. horse manes do grow from the poll to between the ears or a bit farther – this part naturally flows forward and is called the forelock.

Oh I understand that perfectly fine, I just wanted to do a study on it to see if it helped me or other people figure this shit out. The biggest mane problem I personally have is trying to shade pinkie’s hair with anything but a cartoony style

that’s awesome!
 
I love how they make ponies like ponies in such subtle ways, and you don’t even notice because of skillz
 
like sweetie belle, she’s gotta have scalp hair right? it’s huge! but when you look, they practically sprite flip her hair just to make it attach in the center. most of the ponies with “human” hair just have huge bangs, but their hair attaches from poll to withers just like a horse. any shot of applejack from behind, for instance.

Now that I think about it, the left side (horse mane) is the most like how they do toys while the right side (human hair) is more like the show.
