I think I did pretty good, didn't get the rhythm in.

I think I have mentioned this many times before in a previous post, but the amount of time it took me to produce these drawings is killing me. Especially after watching Stan only take about 15–25m per hand. Even after watching the demo, it took me maybe 6 hours to redo both of these hands. I am happy with them though. There is clear improvement on the post demo hands (at least to my eyes). I feel like the relationship of the boxes is better in the post-demo drawings. These drawings are still trash compared to some of the other drawings on this board, but hey, the only comparison I should be making is to myself two weeks ago.

i'm not sure if i did well with 3rd one. the wrist is weird i think? it looks wrong.

Second take on the mannequin hands after the demo. Quite happy with the line quality, yet still struggling with finding the dimensions. Have a nice one everybody :-)

First image on the left is my attempt before watching the demo. The next three are my attempts after watching the demo but before critique. This is actually really hard cause of foreshortening lol.

Hand Study 3. Not really sure why, but I kinda prefer to draw the folding mechanism differently with space inbetween the finger joints. Tried without it though too.
Tommy Pinedo
nice! I like the folding mechanism! I will try it out. Thank you for sharing 😃

Hand Study 2. Put a lot more gesture in and bent the boxes more which I prefer. I see my mistakes already like the wrist being too thick / box at the wrong place and I especially need to work on consistency with the finger boxes.
Melanie Scearce
Really lovely gesture!

Hand Study 1. Did the level 2 of this pretty sloppy, don't even bother, I am so f tired today.. brain not braining lol. Gonna try again probably

Hello! I found this exercise quite challenging. Still I can't get the angles and the propotion right. Here are my attempts.

Here are my sketches after I followed the demo. I was pleased to learn that I made my process much more complicated than it needed to be. I just have to think about the boxes.

Will revisit it later, but the third hand was really fun. Difficult, but fun.

After Reviewing the demo.. I think I did a bit better on the boxed. Still have trouble with certain angles I believe.

This was a challenge I didn’t think I could do it , but i totally loved it i really enjoyed it . It took a few days as some how i forgot how to draw a box . 😂
@fentmaxxer
This doesn't make much sense to me because it looks like almost all of his boxes aren't converging and the lines are parallel so how is this 3 point perspective?

Here's another set of level 1 hands. There are still some proportional errors, but I think it's improved from my first attempt. The side view posed quite a challenge though, since I wasn't sure to just draw a single rectangle or a 3D box since most of the hand was side view.

Here is my attempt after watching the demo, I think it turned out good! Much cleaner and more cohesive than my first attempt.

Geez level 2 is a totally different thing!!

Extreme foreshortening still needs practice! But I’m happy.

One more.

Hello! Man this was tough and a bit exhausting lol. What I noticed in myself is that I was just randomly placing the boxes instead of think about the vanishing points. Thankfully after watch the demo with Stan, I did mess up boxes but now I have a better understanding now. Leave me any tips on how to improve!
