So I’m calling this one my epic fail hand. It was one of those drawings where I kept trying to make it better but everything I did just felt like it made things worse. For one thing I just couldn’t really get the shading right on this one. Maybe the pose I picked was a bit too challenging for today. I seem to have much more trouble with the palm up poses than the back of the hand poses. This one also required a lot of weird perspective stuff and foreshortening which I’m obviously still struggling with.

All of that being said though, it didn’t turn out nearly as badly as it could have. I can definitely still see some progress here, even if it isn’t always as linear as I might like it to be. Honestly it probably doesn’t really qualify as an epic fail. I’m just calling it that because of how it felt as I was drawing it and because that was the first descriptor that came to mind for it.
