Warrior Portrait

Here is a portrait I did of a medieval warrior.  I'm thinking of calling it something like "Down but not Out".  The implication is that the warrior has been knocked down or possibly knocked of his horse.  This cheap shot has only enraged him and he is about ready to get up and smite the enemy with his broadsword.  For this painting, I attempted to port a number of the painting techniques I learned by studying the work of Rubens and painting a mastercopy in oil on panel.  This one is acrylic on canvas - 11x14".
