This kind of style gives a much more lifelike feeling to the ponies, but it's also tricky to work with (mostly because you need to pose your ponies in a way that is physically possible for them, for example a horse just can't use it's front legs like humans do), and you need to not make any anatomy mistake or else the result will just feel really weird. ^^"
