Description
A very human centauress, drawn while playing Worms Armageddon, and being tormented by multiple turtles.I've always liked centaurs, but I've never been a fan of horses. They smell, they stomp and kick, and they have relatively small brains for their size. I know this isn't the normal kind of centaur, but then again, when have I been normal?
Besides, I think my Khnierons are much sexier.

Thanks! Mine are a species all of their own, but I do have a Frankenstein-type mad scientist character who might be interested in your ideas

Sure, go look at the two incomplete stories in my gallery to see what I mean...

I think this is called a βhumantaurβ. I, too, prefer human over animal parts any day...

Yeah, in my universe they're their own species, the Khnieron.

Further thought: given the the two pairs of legs are so close together, they are more likely to canter rather than trot.

Ooooh, thanks for letting me know!

Hmm ... yes. Your Khnierons have inspired me. I'm not sure if it is valid in midden to have variations in the number of legs of those of Khnieron stock; but wouldn't their military parades have caissons or floats that need to be drawn about? Anyway, here's a concept sketch you've inspired of a genetically modified Khnieron recruit being adapted for such work:

Lol, albeit a nice sketch, Midden frowns upon genetic modification, and the use of sentients for labor such as that. Also, she would be hard pressed to find work elsewhere, or transportation. I like to think of feasability as well, she would have to eat massive amounts of food to provide nutrients and energy for those legs.

Oh, dear. Oh, well.
Btw, are all Khneirons female? The fellow I drew was intended to be male and a volunteer. His motivation for growing all the extra legs was to impress the ladies (in the parades and elsewhere). As you know, when it comes to feasibility in relationship to females, in a boy's mind, females obviously come first.
But I shall defer to your superior expertise in this subject matter, of course!

Hmm ... your picture has rung a couple of reference-bells in my head.
The first is a little wierd: A Baron Munchausen story about a land with people with three legs (side-by-side-by-side on one widened pelvis) and one arm (left, I think) on a shoulder in the normal position.
The second is a one-pager from a later Oz book. I haven't got a picture of him; but he was named Tommy or Johnny Qwikstep. The fellow had two arms and and a very large number of pairs of legs growing from a series of pelvises out behind the first.

Wow, those are both really weird!
Glad my pic made you think, tho.

Khnierons, sexy?
Well, yes, I quite agree!
Have you uploaded that skeletal and muscular overlay yet?
How many lungs and how many stomachs are these supposed to have?
(The concept of lungs, then stomach, then lungs again is something I have trouble with.)
π: 0 β©: 1
Lol, they have two lungs and one stomach, I'm not into "fantasy anatomy".
π: 0 β©: 1
A stomach has one inlet and one outlet, so you can, in principle, connect two in series. On the planet of this webserver there exist, in fact, species that have that arrangement. But lungs can't be connected like that because the outlet is the same as the inlet (so they'd have to be connected "in parallel", as electricians like to say).
Not into fantasy anatomy!? You sure fooled me!
Incidentally, I love your takoyaki gal; love your sense of humor!
π: 0 β©: 1
Lol, thanks.
I like feasable anatomy, and put great thought into weather or not my creatures could actually live. I try to get them to be as realistic while still ataining a certain amount of fantasy and sexiness.

Wow, human legs instead of horse's legs. That's new!
π: 0 β©: 1
I don't think horse legs are nearly as attractive...
π: 0 β©: 1
I guess not what with the fur and everything. lol
π: 0 β©: 1
The anatomy also, it's just not too kissable...

ive heard of people raceing them selfs but this is just rediculas 
lovly drawing but i think her nose should be changed a bit , i dont why im just not that found of it
but the drawing is great

Thanks alot fot he comment!

people-ish legs!? More really clever designs from you I see. *spots a chunk of previous conversation* You must draw her dancing, it would be grand
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm working on it now, I'll probably have it uploaded tonight!
π: 0 β©: 0
Glad you think so!
Did you see [link] ?
That's the picture you had reminded me of in that convo we had.
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha! she is fantastic, i love how her legs are moving. great work with the body.
π: 0 β©: 1
Thank you!
You'll like the next one then, It'll be uploaded tonight.

Brilliant concept. You are so full of ideas.

A frontal view would go a long way towards explaining the mechanics of this beast. I would love to see the skeletal structure as well as the musculature!
π: 0 β©: 1
I'll do a skeletal and muscular overlay with tracing paper, and upload it soon, then!
π: 0 β©: 0
Nice work. I would lengthen the body so the back most legs dont overlapp with the fore most legs, and maybe add a little more muscle defination in those legs.
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks, but I like the way the legs overlap, I like compact anthros like this.
I'll probably add more visible muscles and such when I get around to colorizing this, tho.

nice 'taur.
any advice for other people attempting to do a 'taur in the near future?
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks alot man!
I could do a taur tu-taur-ial...lol
I need to do series of tutorials anyways, I'll put that on the tope of my list!
π: 0 β©: 1
thx man.
i have real trouble with horse anatomy anbd taurs are just hard cos of the joining up thing without making it look like a copy-paste job
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, it can be tricky, I draw all of my chars starting from a skeleton, so it makes it alot easier.
π: 0 β©: 1
me too. i can do a 'taur skeleton, but its the padding out that goes wrong for me

Snag a book on animal anatomy!
There should be some at your library.

i own two. one is anime the other isn't
helped me to learn kitsune and cat, but i just can''t seem to do horses
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, what you need to do is not just study one animal, or one anime character. I've seen too many artists and all they can draw is a single character in the same pose over and over again. You need to study the actualy structure and anatomy of the actual animal, and once you've learned the basics of that, you'll be able to manipulate it and use it's structural setup to draw tons of other animals. The same skeleton I used here can be stretched and manipulated into many other figures, from acquatic animals to birds!
