Description Hey hunks and hunkettes! I made an "in-depth" video tutorial on how to draw hands. In the video I will talk about how to take away the confusion in drawing hands by using tried and tested principles such as proportions and construction. I will also share a method of drawing thumbs and an unorthodox but effective way to think about it's structure and range of motion. And lots of tips as well, here's the link:

If it helped you in any way, please share it to other people who need it as well! Thanks friends!

In the part when you show the fingers bending, there is that part where you put an "x" and "can't do." I can actually bend my fingers like that (all of them except the pinky).

Thank you~!*
My hand anatomy wasn't suffering greatly- however knowing exact measurements are always helpful. Great tutorial.
*And thanks for the Concave v.s Flat hand tip especially.

Yeah, proportions are really important. Sadly not many tutorials discuss about it

I'll probably do feet next since that's one of my weak points in drawing.

KingisNitro [2013-04-24 17:56:13 +0000 UTC]

I'd just say that at the "Try this:" and "can't do x", with bending the top segment only... people actually can do that, my classmate can do that with all her 8 fingers at once (disregarding thumbs)... Otherwise a nice tutorial, thank you!!

boybogart In reply to KingisNitro [2013-04-24 22:23:12 +0000 UTC]

Yeah totally, I talked about it a little in the video. Though it's more of an exception than a commonality. Glad to be of help!

KingisNitro In reply to boybogart [2013-04-25 17:35:55 +0000 UTC]

I couldn't watch the video at the time but I definitely should do so now! Haha & you're right. Just her and one other guy in our class could do it.
