This is seriously the most beautiful artwork of Mowgli I have ever seen. Such a unique pose for our favorite jungle boy. You got his physique down perfect. I hope to see more.

Mowgli was described being very athletic and handsome in the book.

ha, yes it does a bit ^_^ its quite an old piece, I'd copied the pose out of an artistic anatomy book. I suppose he is being a bit suggestive!

At least it's not too mature. Safe nudity would be the buttocks, unsafe nudity would show the private parts and women's boobs.

In fact, how did he lose his loincloth in first place?

In the books, it was suggested that he was completely naked. Although he may have worn a loincloth in his childhood since he wore clothes when the wolves found him.

In the original Jungle Book novels, Mowgli didn't have a loin cloth. Why would he? Raised by wolves.

oh ok.

I think Disney had to put him with a loincloth, which in a novel (or in a tale) was too dark.
