Okay, well, since I've nothing interesting to say about the picture itself, I'll just leave a little summary on why I drew it the way I did. I know it doesn't have a perfect bull head. I didn't want it too. I can't see a minotaur speaking in a human tongue with an actual bull's head. Mechanical pencils on common sketch paper. 'nuff said.

WHOA! i love it! *shivers* can you imagine that thing chasing you in the dark! *runs and hides in the corner*

:-) Robert 'Bobby' Holz replies: "I COULD, but I'd rather imagine it as a body guard."

You have a good point about his head, Bobby! It just seems...right the way you drew it.
I especially noticed the veins and the muscles, how realistic! The fur and the clothing look great too! And for some strange reason I like his feet too 2

Realistic drawings of scary fantasycreatures are frightning...but in a good way 2 (is that possible? yes it is 9)

:-) Robert 'Bobby' Holz replies: "Hmm... I'm not too proud of his feet. I don't think they resemble eachother. But thankyou for seeing my views on the mouth and head. And yeah, that's certainly possible."

I hate being critical of artists because I can not draw even a little bit. I think you have a very good point about the head. The only thing I could say that I don't like about it are the horns. I always envisioned Minotaur having more of a point because they are used as a weapon as well as an intimidating part of their appearance.

:-) Robert 'Bobby' Holz replies: "Makes sense to me."

Nice try, but it isn't a 'taur. Draw a REAL 'taur next time.....

:-) Robert 'Bobby' Holz replies: "I've never seen a "REAL 'taur." [shakes head and rolls eyes in disgust] "

it would have been even cooler if he had a mane! A bald centaur isn't very intimidating. just to let you know...I still like it though. very good with the shading and the horns are very well done.

2nd look. ONLY thing *vaguely* Minotaur about it is the horns, other than that it just looks like a human with horns, its certainly not a Minotaur..

:-) Robert 'Bobby' Holz replies: "In the future, if I want a detailed explaination for your rediculously sophomoric comments, you can leave an email address and I'll ask for it from you personally. Until that time please seek out things that you find visually appealing instead of vomiting out gibberish on comment boards for things that you don't."

:-) Robert 'Bobby' Holz replies: "Whether they are awesome or not is irrelevant."

if i met that I'd s#*^ myself. creepy. AWESOME.

:-) Robert 'Bobby' Holz replies: "The last time I s-number-asterisk-upper-cased myself it was horrible. I'd recommend staying away from the minotaur so you can keep yourself free from such embarrassment. "

Hay this is awesome i love, the shading is amazing, only thing i can think would have been an improvement would have been a sweet ass shield in his left hand, but man this is cool, and by the way i don't get what that guy above is talking about, the only thing that looks like a minotaur is the horns? How many has he personally seen in his life time the hole point of fantasy is creating the imaginary, so who made it his right to tell you how to make your own art and what to call it.

Anyway i love your work i am a fan

:-) Robert 'Bobby' Holz replies: "Okay. [gives thumbs up]"
