Cool I always find capturing the actual gesture or rhythm of the hand so hard, and it's so easy to see if it's off even if it's just by a tiny bit.

Have you seen Sinix's hand video tutorial? I liked that one. Alternatively hands in animation, freeze frame, are usually quite simple jet true to expression, good reference material ;)

I will check the tutorials for sure. Thank you. I used set of references and own hands. With pencils I set basic simplified shapes and then used brush pen to finalise the results.

Sokka-Haiku by Typical_Platypus_905:

It was really good

Hands and eyes in general

It's very difficult


Remember that one time Sokka accidentally used an extra syllable in that Haiku Battle in Ba Sing Se? That was a Sokka Haiku and you just made one.

I think you've got them mostly right but the only problem I see is that the fingers are bit too disproportionate

Other than that this looks amazing for your first attempt?

Thank you for your remarks. I still need to dig in more in perspective and anatomy, but yes, this set was made for daily sketches Reddit and it is my very first hands I put on paper

Hands are difficult to draw, but your sketch is pretty good 😬👌
