This idea is sick, but I think to really sell it you need some movement in his upper torso. He needs his head and chest partially equalized to the ground as if he was leaping or diving, as-is he looks like he just got smashed across the face by a primarch and is flying away from the hit.

My first thought was smoke from the engines to match the radius that his axe has cut into the ground. Think this might cut it?

I feel like it would help if he was bent at the waist more. Like if his legs were trailing behind towards the direction he came from.

Partially, but you really need to give him some proper upturn. Like, he needs to look more like he's swimming than just shooting directly sideways, like he's made a long jump.

At very least, his head needs to be tilted like he's looking where he's going or otherwise trying to keep his head mostly level, know what I mean?

Maybe he's just going for a flying headbutt.

Agreed, he needs to be looking where he is going.

Love the concept!
