I've spent pretty much time drawing this picture. I wanted it to look as realistic as possible. Particularly the cross-bow. To draw it more or less correctly I first had to find some pictures of it on the Net. I first did the drawing in pencil, but it seemed a bit dull to me, so I coloured it in Photoshop.

All Right! First Comment! This is one of your best female centaurs! I love the way you get the proper proportion relating to the human torso and the equine body. Your colors are very good and I absolutely love the legs and hooves. Your Centaurs ROCK!

Russian women, of any species, are beautiful. {grin} ... I endorse the first comment -- your human-to-equine proportions are some of the best I've seen, neither half overpowering the other, the horse barrel not too big. And the warmth of your drawing style is again evident here.

Are you a palomino or a dun? Either way, the colors are very nice.

And in sad cypress let me be laid;
Fly away, fly away, breath,
I am slain by a fair cruel maid..."
-Shakespeare, "Twelfth Night"

(A touch, I do confess it; I fear I breathe my last....)

Wow! Pretty! I Looooove this color! I like very much how you made her human part the same color as the horse part. But... since all of her legs are white, wouldn't her hands be white too? Just a thought. I think it would be pretty. I really like the purple arm band.
