Description

Mr Leg!! I was in the mood to colour some of the sketches that I'd done of the Crosby kids a few weeks ago, so I hope you don't mind all these reference sheets piling up in your inbox (: 
It's pretty much just getting a universe together that I can build my storylines in... fun stuff! 

Name: Henry Michael Crosby, called Harry, Henry, Junior (by Peter mainly), Mikey, Chicken Nugget (by Jim and Angie), Leggolas (by Jake) plus various other nicknames
Age: 18
Birthday: February 16th, 2001
Gender: male
Height: 1,93m
Eye colour: grey/blue
Hair colour: brown
Family: Peter and Catherine Crosby (parents), James and Jacob Crosby (older brothers), Janet and Angela Crosby (older sisters) 
Marital status: single
Background: Henry is probably the Crosby kid who's been most praised and successful in the earliest years of his riding career. He's already won titles such as Junior Rider Of The Year in 2015 and 2016, Talents' Cups all over the world, and has successfully represented the US in junior/young rider championships and nation cups. He's really fed on his siblings' careers, plus the late fame of his father - giving him the best possible premises to build his own success on. He's kind of a nestling, probably the sibling that follows Peter's advice and teachings most closely. He'd never question what the man does - after all, his father's best horse Connelly had been the mount that opened all kinds of doors for him before he got talented young Daffodowndilly in 2015. Thus, he doesn't have the best relationship with his brother James. His oldest brother still is very much a role model to him, but they have a love-hate-relationship, pretty much. Still, most (or all) of his drive to get better and perform well comes from years of blind idolization of James and his various other siblings.
Character: (at a glance) timid, but outwardly goofy, determined, very soft, silently judges you, very self-critical, gets overwhelmed quickly, depressive + self-destructive tendencies, always seeks to please his superiors, very smart, quick thinker, internalizes a lot. Very strong inferiority complex.
Quirks/ Trivia: Loves his sister Angela very much. 
Likes: tba
Dislikes: zba

Theme music:

Occupation:
International showjumper (Young Riders, first senior season)
Prefered discipline: Showjumping
His style of riding: Brainy. He is calm, collected, plans and thinks a lot, and likes to do his courses straight after his plan too. But he's still talented enough to know how to deal with unexpected situations - a quick thinker, always listens to his horses, very sensible. His height and long limbs make it a little harder to maintain a tidy style, so his legs tend to flap a little (provides more lift)
