Oof

So, I don't know much about horse anatomy, but I think I know enough to lend you a hand.

Instructions/tips/etc.
-horses don't have the same flexibility as us, yet that's what you gave yours. Although they could put
their head to their necks s you have in the bottom drawing, it probably wouldn't be super comfortable.
Put the head a little bit away from the neck, it makes it seem more relaxed too.

-Horses have a pretty straight head. There's no curve on top, (this is a mistake I made at first) if anything
put a slight dive in on the bottom, which you can kinda see on mine. That's the bottom of their mouth,
kinda

-Here's a tip to follow up with my last thing: look at a picture for reference! This is something I only just
figured out recently. You think you know what something looks like, until you see the picture. It's a
perfect guide, and I guarantee your drawings will come out better, if only slightly.

-For the tail you should make it look kinda fluffy on both sides. And, depending on the stance you want,
you may want to out the tail down like I did. It looks like your horse is flicking it's tail a little, but I'm not
sure if that's what you were going for

-I'll add in the mane in a bit, but basically you want it to be going down most of the neck, then make sure
"gravity" pulls it down, not to the side. (Another mistake I used to make)

-Horses have a little have circle thing going on at the base of their head, (you can see I added it in the sketch).

-Legs should be stretched out, your's looks uncomfortable like that.

-The back should also be fairly straight, only a slight curve

-That last thing I can think of is the ears. You have triangles, but they're more like triangles mixed with a
semi-circle, if you see what I mean

I hope this was helpful, you're on your way to making great horses, you've already got a great start!
