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....

Thanks a bunch! I'm sure you hear this in every message but this is exactly what I needed! I suck at drawing hands, but moreso my righ hand because that's my pencil hand. It's frustrating! BTW: I also have troblems drawing hand poses when the character is gripping something or when hands are balled up into fists.

This is so useful! I hope you don't mind, but I've re-drawn these photo's into my sketch book for reference.
I've written down that they're a reference from this page.

omg dude , you're sooo right....., i hate it when i need a reference to draw a right hand.... what i normally do is to use a big mirror and pose my left hand as if it were my right hand.... and the mirror does the rest of the trick.... but i hate to use the big mirror .... it's so uncomfortable DX

Thank you so much for this too!
One thing that I could maybe think of would be maybe a foot reference? I find feet almost harder to draw than hands at times xD.. this is really great though thanks! It's much appreciated
