Toro Estocada Training

As I currently envisage the José Tomás Academia de Tauromaquia to be without its own bulls and therefore bloodless this drawing explores the possibility of manufacturing a Toro Estocada (Bull Killing) training implement. The piece involves an adjustable maquette foam bull which is set up in a similar manner to a fencing suit, able to record strikes and relay instant feedback to the students detailing the success of their Estocada attempts.
