Description
Always have loved the look of the Centaur and wanted to try my hand at creating one. Freak sacrificed his legs and Mill horse from Daz sacrificed its head to creat this img.
Postwork done in Photoshop 7 rendered in Poser 7
Looking for ideas on what I might do to improve this img so constructive critisism will greatly be appreciated.
Thank you all so much for viewing and for any comments.
Also looking at starting another Sir Poopsie img but looking for some ideas on what his fans might want to see. Thinking of WWII poopsie, egyptian poopsie, road warrior poopsie... lemme know what you think. (for those that dont know poopsie, take a peek at my gallery for his history starting with babies playtime.)

This is absolutely fantastic. Yes, you are right Centaurs have got some majestic, mystic touch. Perfect one! The fog goes well with this! For Sir Poopsie...he looked marvellous as a pirate ;-)
Fantastic image and love your character-great beard
Gorgeous work.Fantastic character. I agree. Centaurs are beautiful and majestic creatures.
Difficult to see anything that could be improved on this. The figure is magnificent, just what a centaur should look like. The atmospherics around it give a mythic quality - I am assuming the mist was added in photoshop. Like pops, I like the shaggy beard. The horse texture is excellent. A superb image.
An impressive image. I love the atmosphere and the mist (was that done in Poser or photoshop? I've never managed to make Poser atmospheres work very well.) Improvements? Frankly there is very little that could be improved. The human part is a little too "pumped up" for my tastes, but that IS just a matter of taste. And maybe the texture on the horse is a little too glossy and flat. I would be tempted to experiment with some "bump" on it to give it a rougher look, in keeping with the magnificent beard. These are minor quibbles. Overall an excellent image.
Awesome composition!
hey, very well executed idea.. and very good render.. i loved the colder blue-ish colors.. and i think to put these two figures together that neat is really something.. my only little thing would be, can you try to fade gaussian blur in the closer to the camera parts?? like it should have a gradient, gradually it suppose to go from net to blurry as if like in real pictures.. for example in your render, head, arms and shoulders are in the same line, so it should be equal in net parts too.. other than that, great.. excellent job..
Really good concept you perfectly managed to put in scene, i really like the job you made on ambiance and scenery, congrats!
Really amazing Centaur, you did superb with the combination. Not to mention the effects in this scene are first rate also.
Kool Centaur character and scene, IMHO I would make the bow heaps bigger, cause with those huge forearms, it would snap like a twig as it is now ! Well done & ~Cheers~ :o)
Excellent character, well done.
awesome work!
Love the character but what makes this scene is the atmosphere. The backgroung is terrific and the fog gives the scene a mystical aura well done
It's beautifully done! The character, and the atmosphere... great look. As for any critique, I only wish there was little more image above his head. About as much as there is on the sides and below. Then he would look securely centered in the pic, instead of being a bit crowded at the top.
Awesome figure and model ... the image is outstanding, love the fog and lights. ... Antonio !!!
