Today seems to be the second annual Draw a Centaur Day.
Okay!
This character needed some concept drawing anyway. She's a worker at a certain small zoo of magical creatures, where she's both an animal caretaker and a general handyman. Or handywoman. Having some extra weight and muscles is much needed quality in taking care of magical creatures that can well have supernatural strength, so being a centaur earned her some bonus points when applying to the job. Although I haven't yet managed to figure out her name, her co-workers have nicknamed her "Pony". (Seriously, how on earth can making up a simple name be so hard?!)
The cat belongs to one of her co-workers. It seems to enjoy hitchhiking on her.
Also scribbled an extra doodle of her lending a hand -and couple of hooves- to Simon. Azzy (Azrael), one of their two male harpies doesn't like to take his vermicide tablets, so it needs some effort to shove them down his throat.
(I'm kind of considering making an art book of the life in the zoo, so I'm bouncing around some ideas. We'll see if I actually get around to do it, but it would sure be nice to leech some money to keep myself alive...)
"I'm kind of considering making an art book of the life in the zoo," DO IT! It would be just awesome, even if th pictures had nothing more than a two word backstory to them, it would be worth it- and very origional. GO YOU!!!!
I actually recognized Simon before I read the description XD . Probably because I like characters with hats (don't ask me why, I just like hats, which is odd, because I certainly don't wear them). He's braver than me, I wouldn't stick my hand down there O.o . Those teeth look pointy.
What else lives at the zoo? You have Sha (shas? How is that pluralized?), and you have harpies, so I'm really curious as to what else there is...
I'm glad he's recognizable! I've done something right with his design then.
So far the zoo includes harpies, sha-thingies (I don't know how to say that either), a nue (Japanese chimera), a hippalectryon, couple of gaja-vyala (Indian elephant headed lion thing) and ahuizotl.
The zookeepers are pretty colorful bunch too, as there are a vampire (Simon), a werewolf, a centaur, two trolls and a naga.
