Commission: The Centaur's Curse

Description

A commissioned picture for :iconsrgntdrew: featuring their centaur heroine, Sarah, and my own characters, a followup to Prize: Sarah and the Centaur Trap by Kathalia, which itself is a followup to Kroashent: The Centaur Trap by Kathalia (And a few more steps beyond that.  I love when a picture inspires a chain like this!)  Sarah finds herself transported the the fantastical world of Kroashent, but is quickly caught off guard by the strange and magical world, captured and transformed into a centauress, and meets some familiar faces.  I had a lot of fun working on this piece and pushing myself further artistically.

This image gave me a lot of opportunity to try new things and go a bit more into the story behind a picture that I normally am able to do with a one-shot TF.  I wanted to try something new with the piece, and added some vignettes around the central image of various scenes from Sarah's story, which you can read in the attached link.  I'm not sure that they gave quite the effect I was looking for, but I think that individually, they all came out quite nicely!  Let me know what you think!

Companion Story: Sarah and the Centaur Trap    Sarah blinked slowly, the golden sunlight filtering through the trees above her and stinging her eyes. She found herself lying down on a patch of dirt and moss, the nearby sound of water running over loose stones growing more clear as her thoughts came into focus. She mumbled incoherently before her eyes shot open once more. She sat up, disoriented, looking around in a blind panic, not recognizing her surroundings. She was on the edge of a brook, towering trees of red and gold leaves surrounding her. Her purple sweatshirt stopped a noticeable chill as the win rustled around her, leaves floating through the air before landing on the dirt or continuing their journey along the watery path the brook was taking. Sarah swung her head back and forth, desperate for a familiar landmark. This was not where she had been moments before. She fell to her knees, legs splayed out helplessly as her pulse raced and her breathing. Nothing was familiar. She took a deep breath, hugging h

Though your art lacks a little bit in technique, it still tells a good story. Let me start off by saying that the horse anatomy is great and the coloring on them is beautiful except for the left horse's right leg. It's a little improperly proportioned. Let me also say that the um... "bosoms" are a little unrealistic. I know boobs are really hard to draw, (I suck at them myself,) but I'll still give you some tips. The size is inconsistent int the art, and in the armor, they should be compressed more. (on the pink-clothed one) Although, the foreheads on the characters are a little small, I commend you for having proper facial proportions. Now I'll go picture by picture.
Top left: The shadow on the boobs wouldn't ever be on the top of it unless the light is from below. Good job keeping accurate "bounce" physics with her "jump."
Bottom Left:The face on the girl is almost perfect, and so is the hair. Something about it is Miyazaki-like! I love it... something bad happened with the boy, though... I.. don't know what to say but I THINK that the boy's eyes are a little too far apart.
Bottom Right:The boobs are inconsistent and so is the design of the armor. I would also make the chin a little wider.
Top Right:The boobs on the right figure are just... eh... the sizes are completely weird since the far breast is larger than the closer breast. Also, the left figure suffers from the same affliction as the bottom left's boy. The boobs are also too high up.
Top Middle: The side boob on the green girl is freaking amazing and the anatomy (aside from the facial profile (which are hard to do)) is great. <3 Once again, though, the pink hoodie girl suffers from squished boob.
Middle:As a total piece, the anatomy of both figures is near perfect except for the right figure's eyes (once again too far apart.)
I freaking love this piece in total, and the composition is wonderful. I enjoyed seeing it!
