Description
This is a continuation of my Using Photo Reference tutorial.*jeevani 's tutorial really inspired me with her eye-opening understructure for hands, so I wanted to expound on how to use references for uncovering such understructure. So props to *jeevani !
The 3D hands you see there are from a fantastic site here: [link] which is great for being able to see body parts in three dimensional space, for when you can't get the right angle you want with real life or photo reference. So do check that out.

I think I saw a tutorial once that said females and males have different hands. Female's pinky finger reaches to the top joint of the ring, making it a litle different. The male's hand, well, you already gave it. ^^

Yes indeed! That, and everyone's hands are different too, it's almost hard to pinpoint where things line up. Seems to be a vast variety
