This is still very good. I'm trying to figure out the bend of the
wrist. Seems the arm should be a bit more narrow on the left side.

                    _     _-'
                  _/ `-_-' _-'
                _/  \  \_-'
              _/  \  Y_-"\
             /  \  Y_/(_-'
           _-'\  Y_/   /
         -' _-'`-' ._-'
         _-'/`-__-'/
           (`      |

           |       |
           |-_  _-'|

Honestly, I don't see the hands here.
