I was doodling around one day, mostly wanting to try and get my humans right, finally...*wince* Didn't quite get there, but I made this guy...and he doesn't look too bad.

(NOTE: This is old. Like... late-2004 old. So I know there are less-than-perfect things about it; I'm just keeping it around to make my recent pictures look that much cooler. *chuckle* Actually, it's because I do like it in some way, but it's definitely dated.)

Your first centaur? Nice one if that is the case! That bickering on the issues of human anatomy, bah, don't put yourself down this is really really good for a first attempt and I can only forsee you getting better as you get more and more 'taurs drawn!

You should expand up on this picture and perhaps draw the things pursuing this 'taur... centaurs don't point their bow back unless somethings chasing them, so what's got this 'taur so frightened? I think another picture is deserved! 2

--MozdocYou bring up a good point; it would certainly add more purpose to the picture. If I color this picture, I may do that.(Thanks also for your compliments. I have never been able to get human faces believeable, but that is why I intend to practice more.)

Yeah, or perhaps color this one. Your really good at colorin, look at ya mods... Congrats by the way. But seriously, this one is awsome. And i'd LOVE to see it on color. If you do... be sure to stop my by page and leave me a message that you did so i can come back and look at it. Anyway, off into the woods i go.

Wow! Dude! Love him! Yeh, the left arm is a lil short, but who cares? This is too good for quibbles.

*laughing at the above comment* It is a nymph! Shes trying to sedcue him and he wants none of it! *fits of giggles*

The horse part is awsome. Disney-ish, but all the parts are in the right place. As to the human half, left arm is.. off, not sure how, maybe to short? ...but other than that he looks good too. 2

Wow, yet another amazing picture! Your human face is awesome! Faces are hard to draw, especially at an angle like that. Nice work! 1
