Description UPDATE: I reuploaded the file, which removed the preview image. You should be able to enlarge the file now w/out needing to download. If you still have issues, just download it, it should work.
Thx.

It's LONG!!
fair warning. xD; Took me quite a few hours to complete. Another project I just got wound up in and had to complete. Now I can move on to other things easier. xD;

I hope it's helpful, never done a tutorial before... oO;

So, uh, yeah. Enjoy. And don't crit the work done, if you have a comment about content, that's fine (like something you wish I'd put in for instance) but to critique the actual tutorial I would rather you didn't. Thanks!

don't fave w/out commenting please & thank you!

edit: xD;; I was informed the sizing was wrong before for the hand. I realized my mistake, the hand was held too high. It's fixed now... sorry about that!!!

Extra: Thanks for all the support and faves on this! I'm glad it's so helpful and enjoyable! I love hands, tis a passion. Hope to see some marvelous hands from ya'll in the future! hehe.

Also take a look other tutorials!! Anatomy & Foot

Kittywoof [2010-07-22 20:02:22 +0000 UTC]

Wow, that was awesome. I have struggled with hands for years and an hour after reading this a drew the first hand pic I've ever been proud off. Awesome way of explaining it, so many professional books make it look so hard you feel like your going cross-eyed staring at their demos. Cheers so much, have put my first hand in my gallery case you want a look- see.
p.s- peeked at your other stuff and almost exploded with artist envy, wow.

I usually hide the hands behind the characters back or give them long sleeves that cover their hands and stuff xD

Im having trouble drawing the palm.... Can you help? D:

odduckoasis In reply to iAppleCX [2010-07-18 19:03:30 +0000 UTC]

What sort of trouble is it? One of the best ways to see the palm, first draw your basic shape of the hand- minus fingers and thumb. Then place two ovals on the inside of the shape (usually a rectangle)and use that as a base for the muscles of the hand. Does that help?

peguinninja [2010-07-08 17:37:17 +0000 UTC]

Can you explain more on how to do a hand that's just hanging by someone's side?? Sorry I get really confused!! Nice tutorial though!!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

odduckoasis In reply to peguinninja [2010-07-08 22:27:45 +0000 UTC]

The best advice I have for you is to look for pictures with people's arms more in a relaxed position. Or, Look at yourself in the mirror, or even hold your hand up in a relaxed position. Hands that hang down on the side are seen from the side, they don't face completely palm up or palm down when the subject is facing the 'camera' as it were. I hope that helps you some. The best way is to study hands and positions in order to understand them better.
