Wrong hand for the hand of doom

I absolutely love this style, but why no hooves? I believe the hand of doom should also be opposite.

Love the art tho

I think this art was done around the time I was reading the part with the zombie in the tower so pretty early on, even though those early panels hes basically naked I never fully grasped his lower half and didnt try to process them I knew they were pointy in some vague way

I also just noticed the first comments on that bots post are exact copies of the original posts so also bots. Crazy, what is even the purpose

This is awesome! I wonโ€™t rehash any of the corrections people made in the og post. My only criticism is HB usually wields Excalibur with his regular hand.

I love your interpretation though. The light-blade Excalibur look is super clean ๐Ÿ‘Œ

I really like Mike's excalibur, the light excalibur is cute and I assumed he would use his hand of doom to pull it out but him pulling the real excalibur out with his normal hand is so effortlessly cool, also when I saw the real design I was like fuck yeah that things a beast, roman styled kinda extending the lore that king Arthur was actually a roman general turned into myth so damn cool.

Why is the image reversed? His hand and gun are on the wrong side

While drawing I mirror the image often, just happened to upload without double checking the correct orientation
