Remember what I said about ramped-up dynamic action in the last piece? That sense of motion is exactly what I love about this one! It reminds me vaguely of Shirow Masamune's "Orion" stuff - though the style is utterly different.
Once again, the eyes really draw the viewer in.

Welcome back to dA, we've missed you!
I don't know where to begin with this one. You clearly brought across the concept of Seed at that age, a new Exalt from the Endless Branch of the Ten Tribes.
The level of heavy accessories, carefully knotted and beaded clothing elements, extraordinarily long nails and the massive wooden headdress, he is both figuratively and literally encumbered by his superstitions. So glad to eventually buy off that flaw with some experience points once he trained at the Floating Tea Gardens.
The stang strapped over his shoulder is a work of art in and of itself. It is clearly a potent magical instrument.

I've missed creating like nothing else in this world, and it feels enlivening to be able to do it again. Thanks for sticking though all that madness and for letting me illustrate such magnificent characters in the first place. ^_^
