Description
Congratulations to for winning first place in the Grotesque Dragons contest!Contest originally hosted by the club.
She requested a horror-themed centaur as her prize (centaurs are half human/half horse creatures from Greek mythology).
This was drawn using several references from stock by ! I mixed and matched a few different poses.

This reminds me to a quote from Don Quixote that says: "El caballero de la triste figura" in english would be something like this "The knight of the sad figure"refering to his emaciated silhouette, i think this creature has a sad figure too, just amazing in a sad way, very complete

Ah, that's an interesting interpretation!
After I was finished, it ended up looking to me like she was about to collapse after a fatal battle or something, and that the wraith-like shadow was her spirit escaping, or maybe death coming to take her away.
Either way, it's still a sad figure, as you said. Thanks for the comment!

Hehehe, buttskull. XD
Much obliged! I left the shadowy bits in the background open to interpretation. Me, I see kind of a cloaked wraith figure.
