Last of these hand studies, Conte on newsprint.

I found this one the trickiest so far, especially the thumb.

Hand study part 2. I think I found this one a little easier than the first, for some reason. Probably because of the position of the thumb.

The first study of this particular hand exercise. Tricky, but fun to try and make it up. I used my own hand as a guide as best I could for this, and then enjoyed Stan's take on it.

And the last of these hand studies, including a page of the last three. All Conte on newsprint.

My latest hand study, Conte on newsprint.

Arguably the trickiest one so far. For me anyway. Conte on newsprint.

Hand study part 3, which is Conte on newsprint, and a page of the studies so far.

This is my second hand study, which is Conte on newsprint. Another tricky, but enjoyable drawing.

The first of my hand studies. I think I like drawing hands, despite how difficult they are.

I did another forearm study, but this time from one of my own references. I thiiiinnnk I've put the muscles in the right place (reference included), but if anyone spots any mistakes, please do let me know. Thanks guys.

This was tricky (which is an understatement). I had to refer back to the notes a few times, but that's all part of the process. I definitely want/need to do a couple more forearm studies...

And finally my ridge muscle studies, which seem very straight forward after coming from all the complexity of the flexors and extensors.

And this is my flexor muscle version of this exercise. Really recommend this approach, it has helped to lock it in better...still not 100% locked-in, but closer.

This isn't an official assignment, but I found doing this exercise really helpful. I feel a lot more confident with the extensor muscles now...

I think this could possibly be my least favourite of these forearm studies, but onwards and upwards as they say....again, I definitely need to do more of these before I can justify moving on.

Man, just when I think I've got it. This pose caught me out in a couple of places, so I had to watch the video a few times. I think I'm going to have to do more studies than the supplied references to make this really sink in.

The forearm is not easy, but I'm enjoying it. I think it's slowly sinking in there...bit by bit...

This one was hard. Here is my second attempt after watching Stan´s example. Question: Is that cylinder a vein? Stan didn´t include it in his drawing, so I suppose it isn´t a muscle... but it´s so thick Thanks in advance :)

Another tough assignment. The forearm muscles are challenging to say the least. I got most confused with the digitorum superficialis flexor, as I didn't realise it has two heads. The flexing of the arm accentuates that, which caught me out. Thank goodness for the notes, as I constantly refer back to them throughout these studies.
