A quick thing of one of my characters, Zekra Mali. She's an African warrioress from a tribe of zebra centaurs. Not only is she fierce and passionate, but she is also kind-hearted and emotional.
I don't like that I have so little diversity in the races and colors of my human characters. When Zekra popped up, I couldn't resist making her. I've come to really like her (but I've been procrastinating on her ref for months XD).
Enjoy!

Re// I thought as much, but knowing you, I wasn't sure if she'd have 1,001 accessories xD
02 Sep, 2017, 3:23 am
re// ahhhhh thanks!! :'D
it's quite easy actually. I used to paint them different (basically making a ball of the cloud and lightly adding more cloud-age from top to bottom>>blur tool) but it was garbage now I just use the pencil tool :u but I outline the top of cloud, fill it in, and shape it by erasering the top
I hope that gives you a generally idea??? I'm really bad at explaining heh

Wow! Centaurs are so beautiful!
And I love the mix with a zebra!
Great work like always! =)
02 Sep, 2017, 6:00 am
SO PRETTY!!!!

Zebra´s are one of my fav. animals X3
and a Zebra Centaur tops that QwQ
thats one of the greatest oc´s ever!
and your soft realistic style makes that even greater too
02 Sep, 2017, 8:35 am
Oooh, she's so cool! I love her design, it's nice seeing centaurs based on other things besides the standard horse.

Re: Hihihi oeps XD Well Then they look a bit like each other ^^
Great Then we have two peeps for friday...... for now friday ^^
02 Sep, 2017, 1:59 pm
Ooh she looksaid pretty cool!
Also I replied on your last post xD
02 Sep, 2017, 2:48 pm
Aah! She's so pretty! X3 I've been doing the same thing with my characters. Those that are in my manga are of different ethnical backgrounds, for example, based on their cetacean forms' geographical locations. Kalju'u (transient orca, though they're found in a wide variety of places) is Estonian, Cikuq is Native American and European to some extent (fin whale, Atlantic Ocean), Yuukarnit (protagonist, bowhead whale from the Arctic) is Inuit, Halona (white-beaked dolphin, Atlantic Ocean) is a tad Native American, though a bit pale-skinned, Marligeaux is French-Canadian (beluga from the St. Lawrence River), and Fiorello (humpback whale who lived off of Jamaica) is African-American. XD There you go, I guess.

Re: Ah ok, I might not attend much myself as I got back from a walk and kind of just wanna chill. I took some nice pictures on the trail I hike! I would love to show you some! :)
02 Sep, 2017, 9:41 pm
She's so cool! Centaurs are awesome already, but a ZEBRA centaur.
*extra awesome points*
03 Sep, 2017, 12:06 am
What a fantastically drawn and interesting character!
03 Sep, 2017, 1:22 am
Oh wow I really like her design! (well what I can see of it XD)
I love the more 'exotic' centaurs
03 Sep, 2017, 2:18 pm
This is incredible!!!! I love the smoothness of the sky!
03 Sep, 2017, 6:12 pm
Re: XD I don't know. I've developed their personalities, thrown together a plot outline, but I'm out of ink. I got a gift card for my birthday (it's today! :D), so a trip to Michael's will take care of that. Also, my response to your (older) comment is on the first newish post of yours that I recognized: the 'Announcement' one. XD
03 Sep, 2017, 8:33 pm
So beautiful!! I really love the colors, and she looks so Warrior like! (seeing that she's a warrioress. xD) I love her jewlery and just wow! Stunning work as always!

She is really cool (*_*)
Love how you did all the details. Really impressed you did it on a 3ds, I mean humans are really though to make, especially on something so small. (^w^)
Rp:
I am not sure you would have liked the citys... people most lived in poverty, and people could be killed on the streets. It was a harsh place to live. The bottom city, was mainly made from people of the lowest possibly class, poverty and such, so it would be a rough place to visit. I remember passing by dead beggars on a corner. It was not a place of much freedom, to put it bluntly.
And... hah... those steads are more similar to horses than to dragons. They have no dna close to that of a dragon. (^w^)
There is science in that place as well see, so of course there has been some mapping the dna of animals like people of this world does. Dragons are not considered animals, but more like a sentient species. Some dragons might not be smarter than a whale, but sentient non the less. Like a human tribe would be. Dragons has common ancestors, so like there used to be a lot of different kinds of human species, there is a lot of different species of dragons. Some much closer to humans than beast. Most Dragons understand certain things, and trust me... they can't be domesticated. There are laws against that, as well as... well... certain stuff that happen (things I am going to use for my books kinda secret stuff) :O
We got animals with scales in this world as well, and they are not dragons either exactly (^w^)

Re: Ahh thank you! Looking at it again after taking a break from staring at it it doesn't look too bad, but it's still a bit too dark.
And thank you again, hopefully it'll change course and go back towards the ocean.
04 Sep, 2017, 5:19 am

04 Sep, 2017, 2:36 pm
Re: thnx!! I have been doing that ever since but now I just need to really put some time in different things so I get better ^^

Yeah. If you have seen on my devi I posted a certain painting there. It is part of a place I often dream a continuing dream to. The world called "Erer". I painted it on glass as well.There is many things, and some to in deepth even for a regular fantasy book series. Implementing some asspects will be a challenge. I want stuff to be a suprise for when I publish this main series of mine. (^w^)

Re: If you like raptors Perigrine Falcons and Red tails are pretty cool! There are a ton of different birds you can pick so don't be afraid to pick what you like. ;)
Can't wait to see your entry! :D
04 Sep, 2017, 7:09 pm
Re: Yep! I might increase it later who knows. But for now just two is fine. My dad really loves Red Tails. Probably one of the coolest raptors :P

Haha, okay, take your time. I get it being hard to read all at once, especially if you're busy, It's long compared to the other one. X>

re:
My dreams tend to last for years in dream time. 1000 years can pass long before I wake up. Of course science is important for a world to function, and the science in my dreams is a bit further ahead than what we have here in our world. (^w^)
They probably know more genetically about living beings, than we have learned on earth, and of course this means they have mapped dragons dna and genetics. Mostly out of curiousity. Like how some dragons can actually get offspring with other species like mankind. Even though they know a lot they don't know much more about dragons genetically.
I can talk days on end without revealing to much about my books, and probably not recall everything perfectly. Like some things is hard to translate as well.
(^w^III)
Though I feel like bursting with all the stuff I have seen and learned. I could probably have hidden the fact about how some dragons can actually get kids with others, but it is kinda part in this worlds lore as well, so it would not be to surprising if some dragons could. (my logic anyways)
I like to hide the things we don't even think about much in our world, or things that might be really strange to consider.
Maybe I make more of it than it is, but I feel like people will react differently than me to certain things. .. I am a bit curious to be honest what someone would think after the first book. I am sure the journey would be at least 20 books at least. Not all the main story either (so much lore, knowledge, stuff, structurs, history, lore). I feel like a film director, trying to make it understandable to other things. Might have to cut a lot that might not be understood as well. Thank you for your support. (^w^)
And that my belief does not bother you.
06 Sep, 2017, 11:51 pm
Rp: I actually tested the science for some stuff once. Works.
Can't say for sure how all the science would work as they had different material in the world from ours, and either way I would consider it to dangerous to tell. They had technology that was more frightening than atomic bomb... I might avoid such subjects completely in my books. In the dreams though, this world is a place beside ours, so it happens right "now" sort off. Their technology advances had a bit to do with ressources and materials not of our earth. ...
I was frigthen when I first came there, not from anything living, but from something akin to metall.
