#243 – En garde

FencingSaw a great collection of photos today from the 2010 World Fencing Championships.  I thought the energy in the poses was really cool, so I started doing really basic versions of them for practice.  As I drew more and more of them, I decided to arrange them into a basic narrative.  (Sketches are based on Reuters and AFP photos by Jacky Naegelen, Franck Fife, Bertrand Langlois and Francois Mori — all available here.)
