I might go a little more into detail from what they were saying.

The biggest problem (and by far the most evident) is the wrist. Why? Because it's practically non-existent. Take a careful examination of your own hand and wrist. There is a wrist bone that comes out where the hand joins with the arm.

Not only that, but where you have drawn the thumb connecting with the arm, there is too sharp a bend, as well as there not being much muscle in her thumb area. Once again, I'd advice you look closely at your own hand, what can you see is the difference? For that, I'd suggest lessening the angle of the joint, as well as adding a larger curve to the thumb thingy (if you don't know what I mean by that, feel free to ask, it's just hard for me to describe it)

Oh, now onto the actual hand itself. As the others have already mentioned, it looks too much like a block. For the third time, look at your own hand, and the general shape of it. In your picture, all her fingers are aligned perfectly in a straight line. Realistically, this does not happen. It's really difficult for me to explain this in words, but I'm sure if you use your own hand as a model, or look up "hands" on dA you will see what I mean.

Last note about her hands, but the knuckles look strange. Like, you have drawn the split before the finger join, which makes it rather odd. Also, try adding some depth to the knuckles, as you have gone for a more realistic style of shading, so I'd advise trying to work on the knuckles a bit more.

Now, moving on to the rest of the image. There seems to be something wrong with the area from her face to neck. The nose indicates she is looking directly at you, yet the neck joint shows that she is in fact looking to (your) left. You should decide in which way she is looking.

Also, as much as I love the shading you've done on her nose, it looks too much like a straight tube down her face. Remember that the nose does get wider towards the bottom.

Everything else (well, at least in what you've done) looks fine. I must say I love the hair, looks spectacular.

Now, of all the things I mentioned, the hand is the most important. You could *probably* get away with not fixing everything else that I noted (because I understand how difficult it is to go back and fix something you've already coloured)

Anyway, good job, and I hope that I helped in some way.

This looks awesome, my friend.

If I were to say anything about the hand it is that it takes a block-like form and the angle of the wrist is slightly odd to me, for some reason. The part of the fingers between the first and second knuckles should take a slight "stairway" form when making a fist.

im to lazy to send out a note 8D so here goes! the hand is now shaped like a block, while when your making a fist there more like a row of tubes (the fingers) so draw tubes! instead of one squere, does that help? no? wel... just look at the dancing monkey then XDDD
