Ummm... I could be wrong but I don't think any of the Snake men had snake arms... I do however recall a Green Viper 'Battle Beast' who had snakes for arms. Remember Battle Beasts? I loved those little guys!

Anyway, on to the drawing. I have seen your stuff for a while now, and I have noticed a shortcoming of yours that shows up in most if not all of your pieces. And it involves the shading. You must be using Photoshop for your coloring, and it is obvious that you draw in the shadows with the brush tool. I can see the uniformed round edges all over the place. This is not only a much slower, more labor intensive way to add shadows, but it doesn't look very good either. What you could try instead is the polygonal lasso tool. That way you can take your time and select the exact area you want shaded without bleeding into any other areas, and NOT leave those telltale uniformed round edges.

Good luck man!

I think it was SSqueesse (sp?) That had the snake arms. He was the guy who could wrap his arms around you to constrict you. King Hiss was also made up of a bunch of snakes so he probably had snakes for arms also. Cool pic. I like it. 8)

I just looked it up, and the classic Sssqueeze had hands, I remember since I had him. But I guess for the new show they gave him snake hands, because I saw a picture and he had them. I never watched the new He-Man really. I am pretty sure none of the classic snake-men had snake hands though. Although maaybe King Hiss did in his snake form...?

I was never a He-Man fan, but I like this. Good job.
