The 2 hour painting challenge!: Challenge 8: Sun Wukong, the Monkey King!

You read it right, folks, today is Monkey King Monday! A little self-indulgance on my part - No LoL or HoN copies! Points for originality and uber-dynamic poses! Just to keep you on your toes after the vague briefs of the last two days!

Taken from CGhub character forge 2D-

Name: Sun Wukong (The Monkey King)
Race: Anthropomorphized Monkey
Role: Warrior/Guardian spirit, Adventurer
Gender: Male
Age: Adult (20-30)

Era: Song/Yuan/Ming Dynasty (8th-16th century China)
World/Setting: Romanticized Medieval China
Tools / Artifacts / Equipment / Weapons: Ruyi Jingu Bang (Golden Battle Stuff), Golden Chainmail, Phoenix Feather, Cloud-Walking Boots

Clothing / Dress: Golden mail, with any adaptation of Chinese dress/uniform/costuming. Google will be your friend on this one.
Physical Characteristics
Height: 5'2-5'7
Stature: Lithe, compact, and incredibly strong - Think the condensed strength and speed of Bruce Lee. The level of..er...'monkey-ness' in his figure is up to you.
Hair/Fur: Variable, dark grey to blonde
Eyes: Brown

Personality: Very much a trickster and free spirit. Egotistical, cheeky, quick-witted. Sometimes brash.
Characteristics/Traits: ESFJ (Extroversion/Sensing/Feeling/Judging) - Sun Wukong is extremely powerful, knowing ancient secrets of combat and a myriad of different magics. His excess of self-confidence and bravado sometimes gets him in trouble, but deep down he is a noble warrior who will fight for a righteous cause. He is very much the analogue of characters that exist in numerous mythologies- Raven of the Inuit, Hanuman of the Ramayana, etc. etc. He is definitely a ''good'' character.

Happy painting!
