story sketch: catching the fehinnan weapon

[meeks]

This is a sketch of what was voted by readers of Karen Wehrstein's Philosopher in Arms to be Chevenga's coolest move in the Arkan war. After another battle lost to Chevenga's army, a fleeing Mahid has thrown a Fehinnan weapon, a delicate sphere which, if shattered would release a deadly gas, killing rider, horse, and anyone else unfortunate enough to to be close enough. Chevenga barely manages to catch it intact when his horse helpfully rears up and throws him off...

Chevenga has really good definition, especially at this very physical phase of his life... you don't have a lot of places to show it, a bit on one arm and his thighs, but possible you can take inspiration from this pic? http://news.deviantart.com/article/157246/#/d2tisnt.

That link took me to a gallery, not an individual pic, but it looks like it has some useful reference photos!
