A few things to think about. In Iocus's ref, more of the weight is on his back leg because of the heavy weapon. Also, checkout the hand placement. They're spread out and on opposite ends of the weapons center/pivot point.- Yours has both hands at the center. In the ref, the hand closer to the head of the axe better supports translation and carrying the weight of the axe. The lower hand provides better support for rotation/swinging movement. With both hands at a single point, sure you can still swing the axe around, but don't expect to be able to stop the rotation of the axe when you have little counter torque control with that kind of hand placement.

-Also check out how much bend is in the knees of the ref. The bend creates a strong base/foundation that provides him with balance, stability and a potential for strong attacks.
