First, before I immerse myself in explaining the complex processes behind drawing hands, I’ll give you a short intro on what you need and a few tips while drawing. First, have an HB pencil and at least two pieces of paper (trust me, if you have never drawn a hand before, I can’t guarantee the safety of your eyes being scarred by the ugliness… in other words, unless you are a prodigy, it might be extremely bad and you might want to start over). Next: always draw lightly. I’ve noticed that many of my friends and fellow artists that need help always press too hard with their pencils… I don’t know, is that just something people do? (I used to as well, so no hard feelings) Lastly, if you have difficulties just sketching a hand from scratch, use basic shapes that you can recognise in your drawing to form an irregular shape. Take heed to these tips since they will mean the life or death of your to-be-drawn hand and it will determine your life’s meaning through unimaginable ways.
Now… drumroll please… Here is the tutorial! I created a YouTube video tutorial (which is kind of broad and a little rash… sorry for the lack of art skills and effort). Hope you enjoy! 🙂
