Help with my drawing?

I was bored last night, and just drew a horse out of nowhere, it's not that good, but I used to be able to draw really good.

Last night:

I was going to take art in high school, but they said the class was already full...

They're both good, but I would suggest more shading. The more shading you do, the more the picture is really going to look real.

I recently got that problem! The only time I can draw a horse properly is by looking at a picture! ^_^ If its from my head, it does not turn out nicely at all! Shading really does help a picture like Goonhorse said.

Thanks guys. I've been wanting to try shading, but I'm afraid I'll mess the whole picture up...

^_^ Start out lightly, thats how I started, then you'll start to find it addicting and look for every little thing you can shade!! Or at least that's what happened with me.
