There are a plethora of brushes available to you on photoshop. This guide will explain different brush settings, as well as how to install different brush packs here on deviantART. This guide is for pressure sensitive pen tablets. It is going to be much easier to do things with a tablet. Ones by Wacom are good, and you can get a bamboo for under 99$ USD.
Basic Brushes in Photoshop
It's important to stick with default ones to learn all the settings. You can do so many things with the hard round brush.
Bring up your brush palette in one of the following ways. (note I am in CS3, so the icons will look much older, but same thing. )

Weirdly shaped? No way. Every person has some variation to their hands and fingers; nobody (or at least, nobody that I have ever seen) has perfectly straight fingers. It's always nice to see hands other than my own to reference, to get some variety in my art.

Hands are always fun/frustrating.

Oh man! I know! I hate drawing hands so much, but they are so very necessary!

They take so much time!
And yeah, they totally are. I am like: -___- when people just add these creepy long sleeves so they can avoid drawing them.

My little finger is weird.
It seems to slope towards the middle finger at an extreme angle.
