Red Hand : The Wheel of Fortune

Description

Round and Round the Universe Goes.
Where it stops, the RED HAND Knows. 

The Wheel Of Fortune
Represents Destiny, fortune, success, elevation, luck, felicity. Reversed it is overabundance, things not going to plan, misfortune. The wheel itself is doubled, as both the roundabout chases he engages with the LAW (for however long they last), and as globe he stands atop on. The Red Hand stands tall on the round little world he's laid claim, ready to seize his fate by the horns, he races against the clock, ready to toss it all away with a push of a button. Whatever's on the table plays. But should wheel turn around, what happens then? The Devilish Apparition of the Red Hand's Real Reputation stands in for the devil. A green orb stands in for the snake. What could it be? He might need to keep an eye out if he wishes to escape from the tower alive. Something symbolically mustache-related here.

Other Notes: 
The Wheel of Fortune represents the Red Hand rather well. I would've gone with Ace of Pentacles as well though I felt that would be too easy. This over exuberant display is far more in keeping with his character. 
In addition to the mostly vanilla symbolism swap from the original Rider-Waite Tarot, I've tossed in 4 additional symbols that have nothing to do with anybody.
Especially not

All in all this was fun.
As fun as the last time I did :iconlazella:'s Tarot Card template thing, all those years ago.

One last incidental note; That font is called Benguait.
