Grieverjoe (Jose Alvarez) is NOT a whiny emo as his name would suggest. He's an IT student with a love for art.

Fencing gesture study

I've been looking at some Disney art, and I love how the animators capture flow and motion by exaggerating the gesture. Decided to give it a shot by using some fencing poses as reference.
I think I need to exaggerate a bit more. What do you guys think?
Reference!

Ever Skyward - Mesfin

Character exploration for Ever Skyward.
He will be the next major character introduced, but I gotta figure out a look for him. I'm kinda leaning towards the left one. What do you guys think?

Account of the Black Hand

"He was 7, no, 8 feet tall, walking with a sense of purpose, never looking to his left or right, never faltering. His face was black and terrible, like the face of Death itself."
"No man is that tall."
"Well… it could’ve been a woman, honestly!"
"A woman? What did her face look like?"
"His face looked like this."
"I thought you said it was a woman..."
"Look, it could've been a man, or a woman! What does it matter? It was the Black Hand!"
"The Black Hand? That’s a myth for kids and fools! You need to stop hitting the bhang lassi, brother!"
