Originally I had the idea of making a whole marching band of centaurs playing "oomhp-oomhp" styled marching tunes, but it felt like such a hazzles finding all the horses, men and instruments, so I settled for this one. There might be more centaurs later if I get in the mood, I have a half-finished one with a saxophone.
The bagpipe is painted, the rest are photos. The bloke is someone I sneaked a photo off on the beach, the horse if from a pic of the royal guards, the lantern is from my backyard and the portal is found at Djurgården in Stockholm. And I am never gonna do another bagpipe! Dunno how many models I looked at before finding the right one.
Tools: Photoshop, cameras, a book about military music and FANTASY
I can see a good improvement in your work, Hera. All the elements flow together well and it has a very dreamy atmosphere. Only thing you have missed I think is to add a shadow in the floor under the centaur to integrate it better in the place ;]
Thanks a lot - well there is in fact a very faint shadow there, both of the centaur and the lantern, it's ironic, I toiled a lot with it and then when I added the mist it almost dissapeared. But one can still see it on the brick wall. They're so fainth because the light is ambient, it's dawn or dusk (I haven't made up my mind about that).
