Feb 3, 2022 at 16:00 | comment | added | Askelad | @ProjectApex I figure mostly the oesophagus and muscles. Maybe some small secondary lungs or airsacs, to justify ribs. Not sure how many vertebrae... what would fewer or more than humans have indicate? | |
Feb 3, 2022 at 14:10 | comment | added | ProjectApex | How are your centaurs like? What's their anatomy? Does the human portion house any organs that would definitely be better off not being squished by the process of twisting around? How many vertebrae do they have? Studying how birds have such flexible necks and how that changes when instead of a head the vertebrae are connected to and supporting a ribcage (something that, by default, tends to limit sideways articulation) could do wonders to help you. | |
Feb 3, 2022 at 13:36 | comment | added | Askelad | @StarfishPrime I was interested in whether a human-like figure could have the flexibility of a bird's neck, after thinking about centaurs. | |

Feb 3, 2022 at 13:27 | comment | added | Starfish Prime | Given that centaurs are entirely fictional, surely their flexibility is entirely up to you? Do you want them to be able to turn around like that? No problem! It is done! Would you rather they couldn't? That's fine too! | |
