Awesome! the pose it's very cool and well made, and yes, rabbits are bad ass u.u

Rabbits are the cutest ass kickers.

Thanks! Fortunately I was able to pick my friend's brain on proper stances and stuff.

Agree =:3

fighting poses are my favourite *Y* expecially kick, so cool! =X3

nice use of perspective. He really looks like he`s IN ACTION and that's hard to do. most of my work is overly-detailed headshots that leave much to be desired so when I see something like this I cant help but admire the positioning and form and just the real THOUGHT put into it. You did a great job and it looks fantastic.

Aw, thank you!
Well, I have found, when drawing action my sketching process has too be loose and wild (basically I have to be as energetic as the pose). Plus it helps when you know a karate instructor that can give you a bunch of tips and supply hundreds of photos.

OH MAN I LOVE IT SO MUCH THANK YOU!!! He's lookin' fierce and fresh and oh wow thank you x3!!!

I really did enjoy this! And I learned some stuff about kicks and such.

I feel your pain regarding foreshortening; it continues to be the bane of my existence. If I may offer a really nice tutorial video here, there's a method called the "coil technique" that helps you envision everything more easily in 3D: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJWLaDSNBAI I've actually been doing something very similar to that since my teens, but I had no idea that video existed till recently. It's 16 minutes long but well worth the watch! I don't want to sound pushy or anything, I just like sharing helpful resources with other artists and I know that foreshortening can really irk a lot of creators trying to make dynamic, realistic figures.

That being said, I think you did an excellent job foreshortening his right leg and how natural you made him look as he balances on his left; looks like there is real weight behind the impending kick.

Thank you!
I'm very grateful my friend allowed me to sift through a bunch of her class photos and took the time to talk to me about the mechanics of kicking.

I've actually tried and had previous success with the coil technique, I think this issue was more a matter of foreshortening a digitgrade leg (especially that long rabbit foot) just wasn't working out too well. Mostly where the ankle connected was where it all fell apart. I might have to just devote some more time to studying that kind of leg set up to gain a bit more confidence.

Ahh, I understand! I'd say it ended up looking great, all things considered. It's always a good idea to continue to target a weak point in one's skill until it's no longer an issue though, regardless.

Yeah, if it wasn't a commission piece, i would be less hesitant.

I'm a Thai boxing rabbit, myself...or rather, I was, in my younger years. Respect our kicks!!

I wish I was coordinated enough to do stuff like that. I barely managed to get through ballet without kicking my own legs out from under me.

He's got great curves on him.

I got kicked by a rabbit once... =3= this is so true

Yeah, they are fierce.
