    A normal centaur has the lower body of a horse, with the upper body of a man on top. It walks like a horse because its lower body is a horse’s. So if you reverse it, it should have a man’s lower body and walk like a man, with just the upper body of a horse.

        If you’re going to go with that, then I’d say it would be more like this:

        But I still think philosophically the point of a centaur is that it’s a horse with a human’s upper body sticking up. It has 6 limbs only because a horse has 4 for walking, so the reverse would have a human’s 2 for walking and you could debate whether the arms would be human or horse.
