Well, I just take a base like the one I showed you, then I go to a program for that, like Paint, Paint.Net, or any other program that can work for that.

The first thing I do is color the pony's skin. For this you need to find a base that has a solid color, or you'll end up with uncolored pixels. Also, make sure to color the outer line as well, by using a darker tone of the color you previously used.

After this is done, you can start drawing the hair. For this I recommend using the curve tool on your drawing program, as it can be used to give nice curves and details to the pony's hair Make sure the line thickness you use is as thick as the other lines in the drawing. After that is done, fill it in with the bucket tool. Remember that the fill-in must be done with a color that is slightly lighter than the outside lines. Use the pencil tool to color any pixels that might have stayed uncolored, and then the tail is almost the same thing as the hair to do. Finally, you need to give the pony it's cutiemark, it's the image that's on it's side. For that you can look up an image that fits, or draw it yourself. If it's an already existing pony, you can copy-paste his/her cutiemark.

And well, that would be all. I hope this was helpful.
