Description One of the things I find frustrating as an artist is trying to draw my right hand. I can't just drop my pencil, pose my hand, memorize how it looked, draw it, drop the pencil again, ETC. ETC. ETC! It's SO annoying! So I dragged my sister downstairs and told her that she was going to be a hand modal, as I forced her to hold her hand in the air for an extended period of time (which, I'll have you know, wasn't that long, though I'm sure she'll tell you it took forever). Some of the fingertips got a bit cut off while I was collaging them together, but I'm seriously lacking in the computer skills. Anything beyond selecting a few pictures in Picasa and clicking "collage", and I'm lost for hours.

UPDATE - Thank you so much to everyone who has posted such nice compliments! I posted this because it was what I, as an artist, wanted, and apparently so do you! I have limited time (as seen by my severe lack of updates) but if there is something simple that would be helpful, let me know! I'll see what I can do....

First of all, thank you so much for your lovely stock images <3
They are really beautiful and have helped me greatly with hand drawing and observation!
I used this to help me out with a school project. Hope you don't mind! I credited you on the description
and I used the the second from left to right on the very last row c: I only rotated it and flipped it
on my computer to use it in my drawing. Here it is in case you want to check it out c:
Keep up your wonderful artworks! They are very stunning

Hands have always bugged the crap out of me in drawing. (Then again I always went for five digits, never even tried the four finger setup.)

Majora01 [2013-12-04 04:31:17 +0000 UTC]

The bottom right hand is a left hand and not a right hand. Also at least 3 of the hands are copies of the same pose as another.

For left hand reference,

Go into photoshop, open this file, and press "Flip Horizontal"

isajin [2013-05-04 20:25:56 +0000 UTC]

THIS helped an incredible lot!
It's easier to find references for odd hand positions but hardly any for normal 'just hanging down at the side', 'spreading' or 'relaxed hands'.
Thank you so much :3
