Description Part 1 of guide:


Download for full size!

Man honestly there's a lot more to add! like the curvature of the palm, how to construct fists or more complex hand positions etc
But there was no space to include it haha
I also wanted to include how to stylize hands for anime drawings (since that's the best way to describe my style haha)
maybe I'll do a part #3 one day   

Disclaimer: This is just how I draw hands/ my perception! ++ there are different hand types/ finger lengths etc 
My anatomy isn't perfect either; always learning...  

The best tool for learning how to draw hands is to practice and practice, and use plenty of references!
Hands are really fun to draw   

Thanks for viewing!

Nice guide ~
i think it’ll be good to mention that the webbing in between the fingers is sort of “v” and “u” shaped, considering a lot of people ignore that rule ~

AngelKite In reply to LousyClimate [2018-11-07 13:57:51 +0000 UTC]

yeah true! I think observing real hands would eliminate a lot of misconceptions xD
thanks!!
