he's adorable! Very, very nice centaur...I've tried drawing them before, and they are hard to draw, so kudos to you! Its an interesting idea too...I don't think I have ever seen a centaur waiting for the bus before... 2

Your a genius!

Oh, I like this very much, it looks so realistic and the posture looks so natural. Every guy has a pony inside2

Ha Ha, that's seriously funny! I wish I had your ability to make great art, or at least your ability to make a good joke!

I'm loving it! The cigarette-lighting-expression Very Good. Your pictures make me smile so much. good. Sorry if I'm leaving too many senseless non-constructive comments here ^^___^^ (four eyes)

The rear entry seems to be standard for centaur-accessible vehicles: Marian Holst's personal van is that way (and has "handicap-parking" license plates, although she doesn't see why being a centaur is considered a handicap!).

:-) Johanna Iso-Järvenpää replies: "Yes, yes... Oh, I'd like to see that van. In these busses, I'm sure they are treated equally: old magazines, a local radio and the usual odd smelling centaur next to them."

Ooh nice. It’s cool how you did the coloring. Makes him look more like a single creature rather than just a man’s torso glued to a horse’s body. I hope they have a part of the bus that’s just for Centaurs.

:-) Johanna Iso-Järvenpää replies: "Ha, ha! The buss stop sign suggests that there’s room for centaurs."

For those who observe?? Buss is an old word for kiss. Public transpot is via bus, which is short for omnibus. Soooo - Centaur is waiting at a taur bus stop for a kiss? He won’t get one with the taste of tobacco on his lips. Doesn’t he know smoking is bad for his health? Makes a centaur short-winded - then he HAS to take a bus to get to work.
