Bones 5 Centaur

I really wanted to paint this so that it looked like the horse was black. I couldn't make it work. All the pictures I could find were very shiny black horses and it always looked wrong when I tried to paint it -- due to my skill mostly --after three or four times painting over it all and starting over I settled on this brown and blond colored horse. The minis was fun because it gave me lots of opportunity to practice my NMM technique.

You may not have wanted the horse parts to be brown, initially, but you did a great job with it. Very realistic fur. The muscle on the "human" half also came out well.
