Description
Notes: I suggest drawing all the hands here (just for practice)....and see if you guys improve or notOh, and on another note, never try to hide the hands when drawing a picture. After all, forcing yourself to draw them on a body is the best way to practice ^^.
Finally, never be afraid to use references. Use your own hands if you must (unless your hands are like mine...fat and chubby and generally unappealing), or take a picture of someone's hand. Imagination and memory can only take the technical side of drawing to a certain point until you have drawing enough to master it.
-----------
Sorry, it's a bit big. These hands were compiled in a week's time through observing people and drawing hands in life-drawing
Also, I'm not a professional (yet xD;; ), so there still may be mistakes in my drawing. but I tried my best ^^.
People has been asking me for a tutorial and I've been meaning to do one for...the longest time, ever.
I know there are a lot of hand tutorials out there, but since it's my favourite body part to draw, I though, "why not?". I personally can't get enough of looking at different tutorials on doing stuff, so....yah
I hope it's helpful even a little. The references at the bottom are for everyone to look at and, well, reference, if need be.

Ahhh you draw such beautiful hands ;v;
I have a kind of love-hate relationship with hands. OTL I love their shapes and their versatility for poses, but I find them so hard to get right. D: And basically every hand I draw looks like my own. OTL LOL;;
The notes on masculine hands are useful to me *v* Because I mainly reference from my own hands for convenience's sake, every guy I draw has girly-looking hands. XD;; So hopefully I'll be able to remedy that now, LOL;;

This is a great tutorial and out of the tutorials I have do not include shadings, but your did (^_^) . I commend your dedication and williness in helping fellow DA Artists with one of the most crucical part of the human anatomy.
Anyways, thanks for posting this up and it did give me the little extra push in my works in terms of 'dynamics'. Keep creating great artworks!
Ciao!

Thanks ^^. hahaha, well, apparently I've been fascinated with hands since I was a kid...my mom had to tie my hands to the cradle cause I was going cross-eyed looking at them xD;;...that was when I was a few months old lol.

Ilmani In reply to Qinni [2010-11-25 22:47:16 +0000 UTC]
Oh wow! I have always hated hands, and think they are very beautiful, but its so hard! and everytime I try to do something closeup at hands, it always ends as failure.... D:
But this will encourage me! I will be better
Thank you Qinni!
