Horus could probably rear up on his hind legs, but not for any extended period of time, due to the weight of his armoured Torso.
@ Pyro: i would like to draw a colour copy, but i have no idea how i'll retain the detail. there's ALOT of black on his body. the spikes are a light tan colour in daylight and glow gold at night. the loops you see on his wings alternate between gold and blue, Egyptian style [he is, in the E-War's continuity, the inspiration for the Ancient Egyptian God, Horus], making it look like he has feathered wings at night. the foremost line in his eye is the pupil, which would normally be glowing pure white, with the iris behind it glowing golden up to the line roughly in the middle of the eye, after which you see the 'whites', or, in this case, royal blues. the lines between his horns, and 'ears', are going to also be blue ang gold, but they only go that colour when he's enraged. his chest had, before he was Cyborg-ised, a blue gem. now it's been replaced with an extremely advanced generator [similar to Ironman's]. i honestly wish i had help doing it...
i tried to make his head look as falcon-ish as possible, so that it'd be plausible that he was the inspiration for Horus in Egyptian mythology. the lines of scale you see at the top of the wings are actually 3 seperate 'fingers', but this is when he pulls them together. they overlap. due to space restrictions, i couldn't show the actual length of the legs. they're a bit longer than they appear in the picture. also, while on that subject, the front limbs are NOT, despite appearances, longer than the hind limbs. it's just that the armour sweeps over the back of the hind limbs.
