did I do this right

[seelenkaetzchens-blog]

This is 100% me. Everytime 😭 *looks at all the unfinished drawings*

[sakimeihime]

Honestly, sketching is so draining for me by the time I begin working on the lineart I get tired of the drawing. 🙃

how do the centaurs sleep? and how do they stretch after a good sleep?

Ok this is one I’ve been wanting to cover for a while and my cooldown sketches got out of hand, so buckle up and enjoy the picturebook!

The easiest options is exactly what you think, the flop. In a home, thick carpets or tatami-like mats would provide at least some sort of cushion for the horse-half and various sized cushions and pillows to lift and support the top half. And they CAN sleep standing up, like horses, but it does require both a special harness/corset and practice. And it’s not very comfortable for anything deeper than a doze or catnap for most, so it’s mostly reserved for bad situations, naps, or guard duty.

Most common are recliners, or ‘hammocks’. Easy to fold and carry for cultures on the move, or make fancy for the city-folk they are probably the most ubiquitous of centaur furniture. A simple adjustable A-frame supporting some sort of flexible fabric-ish sheet for the top half to lean against and sleep. Usually paired with some sort of large blanket or padding on the ground to lay the horse-half on!

When you don’t have no fancy recliners, your herd will do! The preferred sleeping method of closely bonded herds is to simply rest on your buddies cushy backside! Roaming bands can often form long chains of sleeping centaurs with the unlucky first taur either on guard duty, sleeping sprawled, or with the group’s only hammock.

Mix and match to your character and herd’s personal preference!

Also stretchies!

Omg these are delightful and add so much inspiration to my little centaur culture ideas.

Also, these sketches? So well done. I love them.

This part stood out to me especially

[athena1138]

This is really important, especially now during the holidays. You owe nothing to nobody if they make you uncomfortable.

Important

[squishysquishin]

Adding this because they’re safe for dogs too

[simon-newman]

How are turkey skin and bones not safe? Please elaborate.

[thumbbro]

Dunno about skin, but Turkey bones, and avian bones in general, are really easy to shatter. If a dog eats said shards, it could tear up their insides.

[edwinflores428]

Important for all pet users!!

[gallifrey-knits-no-more]

The skin is very fatty and can lead to diarrhea, vomiting, and/or pancreatitis. Pancreatitis can lead to a very expensive hospital stay, and is quite painful. When in doubt, best not to feed human food.

Important PSA for this (and every) holiday season! As someone with dogs and cats in her life, both of these are nice to have on hand!
