      @Kovah: Reworked the composition at a slightly higher angle above ground. I'm switching up the kinetic position, since I find a loss of balance a little more hilarious on that "Asian bathroom squat" position.

      Big problem being the way it looks NOW is definitely way off. I'm gonna have to take a reference photo or hack away at the figure until it looks right in just the pose at least.

I think if you were doing an invasion especially a planatery one a more environmental wider scope shot would work better. The best pictures really tell a story or supply enough information for the viewer to make their own. If you can show it to someone new and they can give you a notion of what is going on in the picture then you will have succeeded

        Whoa Kovah! Your advice was exactly what I needed. I extremely
        appreciate your time and your effort of looking over my sketch. I will
        rework the idea and try to fit a more dynamic/storytelling perspective.

        Thanks again!

                          im not completely sure how a soldier is defined here.. everyone with some kind of weapon? so would for example a troll spearman fit the theme?? silly question probably, but the entries (great ones!) are making me unsure :S

                            yeah I'd say anyone, or anything that could possibly be defined as, or evoke the idea of a soldier - literally and metaphoricaly
