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!

You draw white swirled patterns and tortie patterns so well! Do you have any tips for making such nice patterns?

Torties:

1. Choose the base color of the cat (I recommend the one you want to be more prominent)

2. On a clipping layer (all art programs have them), add the other color of ur tortie. The sploches will look better if they are connected to lineart or if theyre small, but theres always exceptions.

3. On another clipping layer, add the stripes in a darker color. Dont worry about not matching the other spot (aka drawing a dark blue to match the blue or an orange to match the yellow), we’ll fix that later. There are various types of stripes, but the “prettiest” tend to be from mackarel and clouded tabbies.

4. Hide the stripes layer for a bit. Now, you’re going to select the color that doesnt match the stripes (yellow, in the exemples case)

5. Still selected, lock the layer, so you can only draw over what was already put (aka the stripes). With that, we can change the color of the stripes on the selected area to match the area’s color

6. You obtained a torbie!
