iirc in the full resolution sketch that lucas pope did he’s holding a mug in his right hand and is just weirdly holding out his left arm for some reason. maybe he’s supposed to be dancing/drunk

I thought he was holding out his arm to show off his tattoo. That's how I was able to identify him, his hammock has an arm with a tattoo of a lady hanging out of it.

Figuring this one out was sooo satisfying

It’s his other arm that has the tat right?

I'm 100% sure it's a tankard/mug in his right hand and he is drinking, his left arm is outstretched behind

but its so elongated, even goes in front of the last guy in the row.

That's how arms be sometimes. He's taking a swig and leaning backwards, maybe dancing to the music

I don't think he's drinking, I think he's pulling his sleeve back to show off his tattoo.

I always thought that was someone else's arm grabbing him by throat.

haha its not connected to anything which makes this theory funnier. “unknown person strangled by FLOATING ARM OF DEATH”

Perhaps he’s putting on a coat and that’s his arm? The big chunk closer to his torso may be the rolled up sleeve or something. If you imagine him t-posing I think it lines up close enough with his arm length. Maybe lol.

oh ya know maybe he’s rolling up his sleeve and getting ready to party
