Description I should have been asleep hours ago......but hey when inspiration calls~

I felt like doing some hand practice...mainly because of *Kawano-Chihiko ... everytime she visits I love seeing how she takes my drawings and make the hands look so elegant and refined so I attempted it myself. No references used at all, cept for the two on the bottom right side. *looked at her own hands*

Ya know...the sad part about this is that at least 85% of the actual ARTISTS on this site don't ever do random anatomy practice. If I feel up to it I might try doing feet or hm....legs in general yeah....I need practice on legs.

EDIT: hm....799 faves.......thats a hell of a lot for my 20 min doodles. Ummmm *sigh* please don't bitch at me for the DTF....its a waste of everyone's time and its really not gonna go away because your angry about it. And yes...I'm also confused why my crappy sketches got more attention than half the detaily stuff in my gallery that I kill myself, my computer and my art supplies over.

And for crits, I'm gonna be honest...I'm not gonna listen to what anyone has to say about this cept for *Kawano-Chihiko since I'm learning from HER....noone else.

:3 THANK YOU FOR THE FAVES~ I'll post something thats actually worth it soon.

Awwww..I have inspired you...

...YESSS!!!

That's going to be a running joke for many weeks to come..until Uruha does something else to make fun of. Or until someone actually flash animates "Dramatic Ruki".

I love to draw hand studies, I think it's fun! I just wish I could get someone else to pose for me, because it's awkward to keep drawing my own left hand. Not to mention it gets limiting.

You've got some interesting poses here, some of them look really challenging! And you did a good job with all of them ^^

SolemnSorrow In reply to ??? [2008-02-29 23:32:56 +0000 UTC]

They all look pretty good.
The one thing that bothers me is the very last hand, on the bottom right.
It seems off.

I have one or two live study pieces in my gallarey i don't post much of my study/reff sheets

Nice job! ^^

I think your referenced hands that you did looking at your own hand, look better then your free drawn ones. (Unless you want the cartoon look then they all look great) Good job!


-------
I don't see why this is one of the most popular pieces when what this person did is basic homework for an art student. Oh well.... they're still nice hands for what it's worth.

well considering I mostly draw anime the cartoon look is a bit more practical for me I suppose

It's hard to find a hand-reference that actually suits some of the things I need!

Also, great quality!

I hope you don't mind, but I do plan on using these in the future for references.
(Not traces, mind you.)

I do anatomy practice in the margins of my homework, so it doesn't really show up on this site for obvious reasons... XD

No one wants to see my anatomy practice and journalism or math notes.
