i think giving him a big sword or skythe makes him read too much like a God of War grunt,
the lantern is a much more unique choice of weapon (or at least it was when you first posted your wips, now it seems like every other entry has one; kinda like antique guns and long coats i guess:shrug:)
maybe try giving him more of a zombie like gait to his pose? a bit of a lurching shuffle and cradling the lantern because it’s keeping him alive as well as stealing souls?giv him a feverish grin and some lackeys crawling out of the ground around him and you’ve got a winner:buttrock:
Some skinning issues to resolve. I don’t like the drops yet, going to leave some on the ground. I think the ground is going to be a graveyard with a couple corpse hands coming out, like his lantern is bringing them to life with a little glow on the arms to tie it together. I am also messing with how I am going to do the presentation.

4 stars from me buddy!
