Probably all small children know a cartoon about little horses called “My Little Pony”. And most likely, every child would like to learn how to sculpt these small beautiful creatures. In this article you will learn how to make a pony from different materials, what to consider and what tools to use.
Plasticine pony
You can sculpt small souvenir toys from a variety of materials. And first we will tell you about different things. One has good softness and a wide range of colors, while the other is harder and comes in only a few colors. The first is intended for children's creativity, but the second is used primarily for creating molds for castings.
If you are thinking about how to make a pony out of plasticine with your children, then it is better to take ordinary plasticine for children's creativity. It is inexpensive and soft. The main disadvantage of this material is that crafts made from it are short-lived and can melt when high temperature(for example, if you leave the pony in the sun) and will never harden.
If you want to engage in sculpture and make blanks yourself, then buy special plasticine. It is usually sold exclusively in specialized art and painting supply stores. This plasticine is more durable and harder.
First sculpt the base - the body and neck. Then make four sausages, form hooves and stick them to the body. Make a head out of a small ball. Don't forget to outline the nostrils and mouth. If you are sculpting a pony from polymer clay, then at this stage it is better to bake the workpiece so that it does not deform. Then form ears from small drops of plasticine. Make a mane and tail from plasticine of a different color. The hooves can be painted. Pony is ready!
Papier mache
If you want to perpetuate your craft, then before making a pony, stock up on paper or newspapers. First, you soak the paper in PVA glue, then cover your workpiece with it and wait for it to dry. After this, the workpiece is cut into 2 or more parts. Then the plasticine is pulled out and the workpiece is glued back together. To secure the pony, it is covered with several more layers of paper.
Such a blank can be decorated (or decorated using the decoupage technique) to suit your color and taste. And from the remaining plasticine you can make many other animals.
Polymer clay pony
If you are thinking about how to make a rainbow pony that will not be damaged by an accidental touch or fall, then it is best to use polymer clay. Children can also sculpt from this material. The only disadvantage of plastic surgery is its price. For example, one block of clay weighing 56 grams costs about 3-4 times more than a pack of plasticine weighing 100 grams.
The properties of the plastic resemble plasticine. Its difference is that the plastic needs to be baked. Then it will become hard and elastic. You must monitor the cooking temperature otherwise the pony may burn.
Before making a pony from white plasticine or clay, be sure to wash your hands and wipe off the dust on the table. Otherwise, your work will be covered in small, unsightly specks of dust. If you still see stuck dust particles on the baked product, then try picking them off with a needle or wiping them off with fine sandpaper.
And now in more detail. First, divide a piece of plastic into six parts, one of which will be noticeably larger than the rest. From the largest part, form the body and neck. From the remaining pieces, make the legs and muzzle of the pony and stick them to the body. Gently smooth the seams with your fingers. Then make eyes from two small black balls. The white highlight can be painted on after the pony is baked. Make ears from two pieces of plastic, formed into droplets. At this stage the pony can be baked. Pay attention to the presence of fingerprints. If there are any, smooth them out carefully. After the toy is baked, you can begin sculpting the mane and tail. To do this, roll a lot of thin sausages and then carefully stick them to the pony. Bake again. Pony is ready!
Tools you may find useful
If you want to sculpt, then you can’t get by with just plasticine and clay! Therefore, before making a pony, prepare necessary tools. Plastic stacks are suitable for children, as they are light, cheap and cannot be cut on.
A variety of tools can be useful for modeling from polymer clay - from sharp knives and pasta machines to the extruder. For example, using an extruder you can make very impressive curly clay. But with a paste machine, you can roll out clay into thin layers so that you can then cut out blanks for saddles and saddle pads.
As you can see, sculpting from plasticine and polymer clay is very easy. The main thing is to choose the right material and brand, and also not to forget about the necessary tools.
Creating various figures from plasticine mass is an excellent form of creativity for children. of different ages. Most of all, kids love to create all kinds of animals with their hands. That's why today we have prepared another one interesting lesson by sculpting a funny animal - a little pony. Children love these animals very much, and because of their characteristic feature - small stature, they are absolutely not afraid to come into contact with them. If the child has seen a pony not only in cartoons, but also in reality, then this will help to maintain all the proportions of this mini-horse in sculpting.
To create a pony, prepare:
- plasticine;
- stack;
- skewer;

How to make a pony from plasticine
Step 1. Choose the main color to create a pony at your discretion. We decided to use a brown tone of plasticine. We begin sculpting the animal by creating the head. Roll a small piece of mass into a ball. Then we give it an oval shape. We press one side of the workpiece a little. 
Step 2. Next we sculpt the legs. Roll four mini balls. 
We give all the blanks a cone shape. Glue the four legs together. 
Step 3. Attach the oval body to the structure from above. 
We fix the head on it using a piece of wire or a toothpick. 
The pony's legs are short, so if they turn out to be too long, they need to be shortened. Simply cut off the bottom of the parts with a plastic knife.
Step 4. Using pale orange plasticine, create bangs, a mane and a bushy ponytail. 
The mane and tail can also be created using thin sausages collected in bunches. Or make one from three thick sausages, which can later be braided into a braid.
Step 5. We will make the hooves from mini-balls. 
We attach them to the legs and flatten them. We make small cuts with a stack. 
We also make cuts along the edge of the brown legs. 
Step 6. Using the opposite tip of the brush, mark the indentations for gluing in the eyes. 
First we glue in the white balls, then we add green and black balls to them. 
Step 7. On the mane, ponytail and bangs, add a simple texture with a skewer. 
When creating a texture, a child can safely experiment and come up with a unique way of processing these craft details.
