* Connecting Line: Draw a curved line connecting the head and body, indicating her neck.
* Legs: Sketch two simple curved lines below the body for Pinkie Pie's hind legs.
* Tail: Draw a long, curved line extending from the body, becoming thicker towards the end for her tail.
2. Facial Features:
* Eyes: Pinkie Pie has big, expressive eyes. Draw two large ovals for her eyes, positioned on either side of her head, slightly angled.
* Irises: Inside each eye, draw smaller, tilted ovals for the irises.
* Pupils: Add two small dots within the irises.

* Inner Ear: Add a smaller, curved shape within each ear, representing the inner ear.
4. Mane and Tail:
* Mane: Pinkie Pie's mane is a vibrant pink. Draw a series of wavy lines cascading down from the top of her head and back. Make some of these lines stand out as if they're flying in the wind.

* Bow: Pinkie Pie often has a large, bright bow in her mane. Add a big, curly bow to one side of her mane.
7. Finishing Touches:
* Outline: Go over your sketch with a darker pencil or pen to create a crisp outline.
* Shading: Add some subtle shading to Pinkie Pie's face, body, and mane to give her depth and dimension. This can be done with light cross-hatching.
