Lupine Gauntlet (Sekiro design challenge)

I figured claw submissions would be common so I tried to put a lot of thought into the mechanics of this design. I managed to place in the top 100 out of 1800 participants but seeing what the top placers made really showed a quality that I was lacking here. I'm inspired to bring that finish to future works by going through with finer tools and a close eye. Still, it's good to know that this was somewhat successful.
