Some time ago, I posted some "critter" designs in LDraw format: some "barnyard" critters (chicken, goose, pig, cow, ox, and bull), and some wizard-bait critters (newt [1], frog, and toad [2]). Now that Brickshelf.Com has a Gallery feature (thanks, (...) (25 years ago, 10-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)

Hi, Anyone ever try to make one of these - Centaur, Stire, Minotaur, Sphinx, or other half-man, half-creature type of thing? Other than Tim Coats, I haven't seen any of these mythical creatures. My first thought, after "Hmm, Centaur..." was, 'Oh, no (...) (25 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Off the top of my head (for a centaur), a Yellow-Castle-era horse with a minifig head and chest. He should probably also have a bow and quiver. Maybe put the quiver on his back so you can put Qui-Gon Jinn's hair on his head for a mane. For a (...) (25 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
