"A Centaur Skeleton" by Alina Nesterova

Wow, so hard

I think this is a great example of what a skeletonized centaur would look like. As an untalented artist myself, I’d have to say that this is pretty damn near perfect.

Alina, you obviously have great talent. Take advantage of it, and don’t waste it.

my no expert either but it looks fine and i asked a friend of mine too he thinks it looks fine too, anyway I’d like to see if u could do front view of the character as well but it might be hard to cause of all the bones

It needs more support.

Awesome concept.

two sets of lungs ...>_>

its all good i suppose,..i mean now I’m jealous...i want two sets of lungs T_T

Now try a centaur organ map! This is neat! To think that no one has ever thought of this!

Very intriguing! If there was only one heart it would almost have to be located in the horse section to pump blood to the entire centaur. Two hearts might work, as long as they’re not working against each other. And the lungs... I’ll have to think about that one. They could be connected by some sort of extended esophagus from the human set to the equine set. The stomach would have to be in the horse section, and it would have to be extremely efficient and not prone to attempting to expel its contents because of the enormous amount of pressure it would be placing on the comparatively delicate human esophagus... interesting. Makes me want to come up with my own organ map.

Wonderful drawing! However, to support the human half, the human pelvis needs to be flared wider, if only to keep all the organs in place. Also, structurally, it seems like the horse part needs more vertebrae and the human part needs fewer... and maybe some lower ribs, like in the bottom part of the human portion, would be necessary to join it properly to the equine section. Overall, though, very cool and thought-provoking.

It needs a tail bone and more structure... Otherwise the horses spine of the centaur would collapse in on itself; other than that, I absolutely LOVE it
