Description Alright a few things to address.
1. Someone noted that her left hoof was awkward (thats a strange word to spell btw) I adjusted it along with the draping of her cloth, her nose and her hip lines.

2. Same someone noted that centaurs have horse tails. Not when I draw them. I gained my inspiration from a Mortal Kombat fighting game. I don't remember which or what the characters name was but I enjoy that style of tail.

3. Her style of clothing. Centaurs as I see them do not run around nude but in a clothing of sorts. Dwarves have there own style based upon vikings and barbarians. Hobbits or halflings seem to be associated with english or irish country clothing, Elves are often seen in french rennisance/roman garb though the roman is mainly for females. and fairies seem fond of a wild motif imitating foliage and flowers. So why do centaurs not have their own style. As you will see in drawings of centaurs to come I base their sociaty upon a matriarchal pattern and their clothes are based on africa with their vivid patterns and wrapings of cloth for skirts and such. I drew a little inspiration from india for the jewelry.

The staff is bamboo and yes bamboo curls like that.

4 her name. Pulu is a pun. Her whole name is Sa Pulu with her surname first like in asian cultures. SO her name by western means is Pulu Sa...ie Apalusa...no shock that her brother who I have yet to draw is named Apul...oh and I KNOW she is not an apalusa. In fact she is not anybreed of horse.

Nice picture!

I like the original twists you have made with this character when it
comes to clothing and the tail. Not many people would have gotten
the idea to dress up a centaur. ^_^
