Description

"You said your name was Chiron. Are you really..."
He smiled down at me. "
The Chiron from the stories? Trainer of Hercules and all that? Yes, Percy, I am."
"But, shouldn't you be dead?"
Chiron paused, as if that question intrigued him. "I honestly don't know about should be. The truth is, I
can't be dead. [...]"
I thought about being a teacher for three thousand years. It wouldn't have made my Top Ten Things to Wish For list.
"Doesn't it ever get boring?"
"No, no," he said. "Horribly depressing, at times, but never boring."

~ "The Lightning Thief", Page 82


Hey there, guys! Yes, I have too much free time..? :XD: Well alright, here goes Chiron, the eternal teacher for heroes. He's looking up a hill in Camp Half Blood and thinking "What the hell are they doing up there?", ready to check on it, just in case :D Demigods can be so chaotic sometimes :giggle: I bet he has a hard time teaching them but I think the most time, he enjoys it.

This drawing really gave me a hard time, mainly because I totally SUCK at drawing horses. But I need to improve, so I tried to start by doing the horse half. Okay, I cheated. I had a reverence, an awesome one for sure (see down by the references). Other than that, I tried to make him look friendly but also old (well in his later 40's maybe). The beard also killed me and for some reason, his eyes as well. Don't mention it...please? ^^;

Anyway, really hope you like it! :meow:
Love ya! ~:heart: :tighthug:

This is my first critique and would just like to say all of this is meant to be constructive so don't take it the wrong way. I am going to say that I do not think that Chiron would wear a camp tee-shirt because I think that that is only for the campers, also I think that without the beard his face would look quite young, If he didn't have the lines on his face it would look like a child centaur with a fake beard on, I know that you said not to mention the eyes but I think that they look great. The horse section has only one problem I can notice and that is the fact that the raised leg looks like it is jutting out of the front of the body not going down smoothly like the rest of the legs and the background seems a little plain but over all pretty good. keep up the good work <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w…" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)"/>
