A centaur: half man, half horse. Warriors from ancient Greece, always caught between two worlds: that of civilized men and that of beasts.
I decided to do this manip because I could not find one single decent centaur picture anywhere on DA. Just search for one, you won't find anything that really looks good - just a lot of bad attempts. So it was up to me to create the definite centaur pic. Of course I'm not satisfied with the end result, but perhaps you disagree with me on that.
This really was a practice in adding stuff to backgrounds and making it look real, and a practice in merging two different pieces of beings into one. That last part worked out just fine, I think, it's the first part - making the centaur as if he's really there in that forest - I'm not too happy with.

One little thing... his upper body (the human part) seems less 'in the forest' then the horsepart.. Maybe because the contrast of the dark surroundings and the kinda light human body is a bit big. Nonetheless, I really admire this piece of work!

I sound my barbaric YAWP over the rooftops of the world.
Looking forward to seeing your centaurs!
