This is my fursona in the middle of a dueling session whilst exclaiming 'Huzzah!' in enjoyment in mid battle. ^\/^.
Explanation of the action and scene:
Having just been knocked rather hard, and sliding along the ground (hence the grooved track marks in the floor), my fursona Domineus Dan is swinging his leg back to do a round house kick. The kick is intended for the opponent that struck my fursona in such a way to cause the grooves in the floor. That opponent is not shown being off screen somewhere running toward my fursona. ^\/^.
At the same time he is defending himself from projectiles (not yet shown since I prefer to render them digitally) at the front and back with his swords. The sword on the right hand is swinging back to deflect a wave of arrows and bolts from an archer type of opponent in back while the sword in front is maintaining a position perpendicular to the ground to deflect bullets from an opponent using pistols. ^\/^.
One of his swords (on the left hand) is rather bent and grooved due to many strikes from various weapons. The other sword (on the right hand) is not that damaged having been taken from another warrior in the middle of the battle. The former owner is some random warrior in the battle. ^\/^.
So far I mentioned four different warriors in this battle when, in my mind, there are about twenty. This battle is a dueling session between other warriors as a way of practice and to show off the various skills of each warrior. Domineus Dan, being from a noble warrior class and having trained for much of his life is fully enjoying the battle. So much so that he exclaims 'Huzzah!' in the middle of the battle. ^\/^.
Explanation of Domineus Dan's look:
Normally the feathers on his head and body is finely combed and regal looking. However, when battling, his feathers become frayed and pointed from the heavy movement and sweat of the heavy workout. In the end, his feathers, especially on the head, look like a cross between a feral beast and a Super Saiyan's hair (if it were shorter and not long). Also, the look of his eyes change with the iris and pupils becoming smaller and less round. It is a bit like how some eyes of Digimon change when the sense danger and / or get more serious in battle.
The clothing Domineus Dan is wearing is similar to his usual uniform, but is less detailed due to this being a dueling session type of battle and not a real battle.
His full uniform includes such things as more detail and patterns on the cuffs and bands on his boots, gloves and the edge of his leg-guards and torso armor. Also, his waist area would have a belt with a holder for his swords and his cape would have detail at the bottom and / or sides to indicate his rank.
Also, the pin / amulet holding his cape together on the middle of his chest would have the standard of his country in the middle (the standard is the Trinity Celtic Knot). Also his sword would look better and last longer. LOL. ^\/^.
To better compare the difference, this is an example of Domineus Dan after a practice session and recently battling ( https://www.furaffinity.net/view/11831762/ ) and this is and example of him when he has not recently battled ( https://www.furaffinity.net/view/8896433/ ). The armor in that second one is more detailed and made for daily use, but still not a full uniform for major battles. ^\/^.
