At this point I realize how good it is to participate in a contest. I mean, I'd never come up with a design like this, but by combining things that you love to draw and trying to do your best at it, makes you learn a bunch of new stuff. By now I've changed her class from lancer to white mage. Kind of a feeling occured in the process of lining her: that she has to be a flying mage, casting "ressurection" aoe or curaga or buffing guys on the battlefield.
Your design is awesome! The title 'the dragon-centaur' had me skeptical, but you've pulled it off really well. The costume work is especially spot on. I love seeing the way you've thought out the characters anatomy and jewelry and how they work.
My only critique is based on the last image you posted; her torso looks (imo) too straight / upright, and I think you could get a more dynamic pose out of her before pushing to the final.
Either way, it's a really cool character. Excellent work.
@joshculpart why thank you kind sir! And for the reasonable critique part. I'm looking forward to using free transform tools without too much damage to the fragile lineart already done there haha ^^
@skylarc88 uwaaa 9_9 this is exactly what I was aiming for. This means a lot, thank you!
