Still the same technique as the other images of this kind, a cut-out.

I'm less convinced by this one. It's maybe because it reminds me (very vaguely) of the hand of the mechanical arm that Corwin brings back unwillingly to Benedict, in the Princes of Amber saga, by R. Zelazny. The book is called "Sign of the unicorn".

"... the sparkling, metallic arm, which planes are like a diamond's facets, the wrist and the elbow, a marvelous intertwinement of silver thread, dotted with fire, the stylized hand, skeleton-like, a swiss toy, a mechanical insect, functional, deadly, beautiful in its own way..."

Of course, we are far away from that. The arm is missing, the working parts, some moon rays and a few cables as well. Moreover here, as opposed to the book, we have a left hand.
