The idea is to attain a classical centaurian look, more or less according to greek mythology. And I'm quite satisfied about the outcome. Still, I've the unexpressed feeling that something is missing. Can anybody give me an advice, suggest some improvements?

This is going to sound disgusting, but try the Unsightly Body Hair in brown.

I know, gross huh? But on Centaurs, it actually looks...Centaur-y. ^^

Hope that helps. ^^

What about using the Cowboy Stubble item to give you a more gruff facial appearance?

I don't think you need much changed. Just something green to tie in the Laurels and something of interest in the hands. Here is my suggestion;

The clovers give him a softer appearance, which matches with the calm disposition of his eyes, but he seems to want a more tougher he-man look, I think.

Don't the ground items look so awkward when you're walking around in Towns? xD

Well I'm not the one to go to for a he-man look. I like the softer look myself.
As for ground items... the Smashing-Cities [or whatever it's called] looks far better in towns than the clover. When you sit down the clover field rises up so you can see the hooves/feet under them... not my cup-o-tea
I like the cities one because it's subtle, non-messy and ties the whole avatar together without much fuss.

Wow, I was busy for two days, but I wasn't expecting a similar amount of posts. First of all, I want to thank everybody for their help, I have really appreciated it.

TokioNights and Vanaran, you're both right. Cloverfield is too soft for me, and generally I prefer not using this kind of ground items if I mean to go with this avatar in towns. But it's true that it's need something green, I'll keep looking for something fitting. About the spear, I think you're perfectly right, I like it. Regarding Cowboy stubble, I'm still deciding about it, but I've the impression that is a bit too gray-ish for a bay centaur.

Anyway, the principal meaning of this post is to thank all of you, I think I got a couple of very good ideas from this thread. blaugh

Well your welcome and hopefully we'll see you around the guild more. =D

Btw, I'm drawing your avatar because it appealed to me for some reason.
PostPosted: Fri Aug 08, 2008 9:26 am


I'm trying to be as active as I can, it's definitely a pleasure to be part of an active guild at the end. And I'm honored you liked my avi enough to draw it, can I see it when it's finished?
