Bethany's job is simple but not often taken, that of a traveling guard for members of the Mercenaries' Guild. She often travels from outpost to outpost/inn. In exchange for food, bed and board, she focuses on protecting any place Guild-post. Often Extra Muscles that can be greatly appreciated. Essentially grunt work that goes overlooked but beyond appreciated by the people around her.

Inspired by MiraiHikariArt's art piece of Kisara from Tales of Arise, I wanted to have a piece where it showcased Bethany guarding one of the Guilds' locations. Getting the pose and the angle was the key thing in my mind, and trying to render the cake was something I was worried about. However, while everything else was improvised, I'm immensely proud of the cameos of Gwynfor and Haera, both my own characters. How they were done were a simple painted format, going over the sketch, using one type of brush. The result is honestly enthusiastically inspiring and makes me want to try again in a bigger image. The background being Autumn was due to a combination of the season at the time of creation, as well as wanting to match with the sunrise as well as Bethany's orange hair.

Passing the Torch

Within the transition between old and new, within a storm, a clone trooper with a torch helps guide Claudia closer and closer to the exit. While she can survive, more and more this trooper gets taken by the dust storm. And right as they get close, her begins to fade as he passes the torch to Claudia.

With me hitting 3 decades of life soon, I wanted to do something to, well, pay tribute to my first character. Mikaru was a Jedi/Jet Trooper, but as you can probably tell he's no longer a character I even have on my big spreadsheet. But, the first step is always important. So, I drew Claudia who is at this point the big pillar in my lore and have Mikaru pass the torch. I tried to do something different with the shading on Claudia, matching the dusty flow. In the end, this is probably one of the last milestone pieces I wanted to do before the next birthday, and an apperciation of what has come before.

Truck-kun Midnight Secret

During the Isekai boom, there was a meme called "Truck-kun," going around on the interwebs, doing jokes about the obsurdities of the truck isekai-ing protagonists. However, I ended up thinking "What if it was doing this on purpose... and could it transform?" After that, I began brainstorming and leading to this. The design is simple, a combination of WFC (toyline) Ironhide and TFAnimated Shockwave. I knew I wanted it to pick up the body and have it's headlights focused on shining on it. It's a horror piece thru and thru, one with a WIP collecting dust for almost 3 years. While I could do more, I'd rather have it out in the wild for all to see this concept formed.

As voted, Princess Boosette took the stage. Given that this is a design more from the fans, there are many different designs and interpretations of her appearance. I tried my best to do one from several different looks and ended up with one that I thought fit her and my style. The background was harder than anticipated especially since I needed to curve the perspective. It was a struggle early on to the point I wanted to start that first end it paid off so well!

The Marionette Of The Ballerina

Character (https://toyhou.se/2084378.cynthia-chuseio) © @CentaurWorks

Cynthia's greatest nightmare is losing control of her vampire side. The side that is a natural blood suckers, one can compare them to a monster of the night. To be a puppet of this inner instinct she has worked hard to control and manage within her lifetime. And yet, sometimes when she sleeps, she can feel the nightmare becoming more and more real. In the realm of dreams she can not escape the horror that may possibly come if she laxed control; and a fear of becoming far more worse than human.

This is sort of a remake of one of my old pieces but more it's own thing. I always had the idea of Cynthia being fearful of her vampire side, always thinking of it like it controls her even unintentionally. Leaning into that idea is her as a wodden puppet with no control over herself and her action. I wanted to do something like that but also add a shelved idea. There's a character called "Darkness" that was from an old group RP called "Echoes In The Rain" and she was more the evil villian and mirror to Cynthia. So I wanted her to be the puppet of Cynthia as if she's controlling her vampire side; luckly my friend Azura has an old WIP I was able to use. Add a bit of scratch brushes to the BG and I love how dark this image came out.

New OC: Marcille the Blade Ballerina

https://centaurworks.art/#linktree

Character © CentaurWorks

Marcille is a cyborg constructed for a wealthy family as well to eliminate targets the family deemed a threat or for a bounty. The name was given to her thru a combination of her production line tag: M-4R71 and members of the family filling in the gaps. When she came online, she was as cold as any robot would be, showing little deviations towards commands and the words from her vocal cord; making it easier to eliminate those against the family.

The cycles of time moved forward and so did the ease of killing. Tho, with extra downtime, she began learning more about the world, it’s culture, it’s languages and history. She added little things to herself, like a ribbon around her thigh, and a spider lily in her headband. Soon, she obtained independent thought, ‘she thinks, therefore she is.’

While she has not had to decide not to kill nor too many difficult choices, she has become so familiar with the bloodshed that if another job comes by that involves taking a life, she (might have) no hesitation to act.

So happy I got this idea down. This is a character started from tutu sawblade and evolved from there as a thought a ballerina with blades would be so cool and badass. I was struggling on how to do the legs for a while until I saw an art piece with these curved long blade legs. Things then slowly fell into place, and finished with this masterpiece. I ended up adding a spider lily on her hairband to make it feel more "human" and for a sprinkling of symbolism.

Dreamscape to those has but one yet important gift, the ability to grant people's deepest desires; even ones they never knew they wanted. But, they do not realize it is but a dream; one their soul can never wake up from. In their place is a body being puppeted by Dreamscape himself to do as he pleases. The only way to escape is to realize it is a dream and to truely deny the deepest desire. Even after that, if they do get such desire, they will die by a heart attack. Once Dreamscape has his sights on you, his long shadow is all but impossible to avoid; and all the more likely it is for him to have one... more... SOUL!

With the stormy weather pouring down, Claudia went to take shelter within a Japanese shrine in hopes to dry off and to get shelter until the storm stops. The shrine seemed rather empty. nothing much within other than leaves and statues. Claudia goes to inspect one of them, a fox statue that stood out among the rest of the statues. As she was inspecting tho, it's eyes glow and an orange magic began swirling around it. Little did she know that enterting seemed to get the attention of a kitsune of the shrine, as it uses it's staff to start using magic, as Claudia is unaware she's becoming affected by the magic as well.

Welcome to the first art of the Spooky Month of 2025! I knew I wanted to do something featuring Claudia and a fox statue, with magic coming out like a curse. It formed more and more over time and eventually added a shrine and a figure to it. The thunderstorm was something added to have it in a darker setting while adding an extra light source. I was thinking about having a random figure but then I decided on one of my best friend's OC Koji, an AU pairing and miscevious one. What I was most happy with is the crop bars and the bleed. I wanted to try to make the magic stand out more, really make it more daunting in a way. This lead to the idea of having the magic break out of the cropped bars and even elements like the fox eyes and the different translation for the subtitles. With everything, I feel so happy with how this came off and hope it gives off a creepy vibe.

I knew I wanted to work on at least one artwork this year that was one of my OCs in a poofy gown; but after finding a pose online that really grabbed my attention plus struggling to figure out which OC to use, I ended up defaulting on Snow Princess Drake. The result is a lot of experimentation with lighting, cloth fabric and even a a holographic tutorial I found on Bluesky was used. I was very worried it was going to look too much like water but it ended up looking amazing!

Looks like the Monthly Support poll is going strong still. This was the first one the supporters simply voted and the winner ended up being Rina from Mermaid Melody. After a group rewatch, Rina grew on me as the more mature of the main trio and confident, at least in the first season. I was happy to work on an art piece of Rina. I was worried mostly about the shading but while doing the shading it ended up looking fantastic! The pose ended up being more "what's in the inventory?" and landed on this one. More pinup but still overall really happy with the finished results!
