Description Emily had been a track star in high school, and that had earned her a very nice free ride to college. But when she arrived, she found the competition was fierce, and she knew she couldn't compete without help. So walking through town one day, she found a small occult bookstore, and in it, she found a book of magic spells. The proprietor told her they were real, and sold her the book for a dollar, but when she got home, she was sure she'd been conned. Still, there was only one way to find out, so she hunted through the book for a spell to make her faster, read the magic words β€” and to her great surprise, she was definitely faster. And probably disqualified too.

I've been playing with this picture for a while now, and today, I finished up the lineart. This is, as usual, several hours in CorelDRAW with a mouse, but I really don't know how many. Ten? Twelve? Eight? Somewhere in there, perhaps.

After reading a good tutorial on hands, I tried drawing her hands without any references, and lo and behold, I actually drew hands that don't completely suck.

Edit: This is now available in finished shiny color! Go take a look!

I love it; I bet that’s the last time she'll try to cheat using occult magic. then again...IS there anything in track regulations that prevent her from competing on the case of turning herself into a centaur? Well given they probably added one after that race eh?

Well she can always try her hand at horse racing.

This is awesome XD Hands are tough. When I first started drawing people, I drew fists all the time because my hands were SO horrible. These look great! :3

Those hands don't have any problems, and, as typical of your work, that's a different, well-executed, and unusual pose.

Be careful what you wish for. Right?

Great work! Excellent work on her face and body.

I see the Book of Changes managed to find both another independent incarnation and eager reader. (Those magical books just keep showing up everywhere)

Great job showing Emily's change, and I love seeing her clothes bunched around her new hind legs. It's a great change of pace from the usual rip, shred to confetti or magically disintigrated routine.

As for her future track competition, to quote an L. Sprague DeCamp story title, "Nothing in the Rules".

Looking forward to seeing if you color her.
