Some hand references.

Sources 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Redid a post by fucktonofanatomyreferencesreborn with sources because they never source anything and I don’t want to reblog that post because I don’t want to support blogs who don’t give credit to people

(No, stating that the art is ~not yours~ and ~came from elsewhere~ IS NOT PROPER CREDIT. Many of these have usernames and such on them but not every single one and you still ought to link back to the specific piece)

I couldn’t source the last one so I didn’t include it.

Practicing hands on hips because yO THATS WEIRDLY HARD TO DRAW FOR ME

This is top notch.

Hand practice! My lecturer said my hands look all the same so I tried to put in some character. It’s hard! Will try to simplify more next. (You’re welcome to use these for reference)

Digital posing tools for iPhone and Android

anatomicalart:

Have you heard of two iPhone apps called “Pose Tool” and “Handy” ? Pose Tool lets you pose a male or female figure, light it, see muscle groups, change body types, and position your camera. It’s good on the fly app for anyone who wants to pose their reference or change perspective. Handy is a library of high quality hands and has faces, male and female. This is great for complicated hand positions and also has a pretty robust lighting system. I just thought I’d let you all know.

These seem like great exercises. I don’t know who did two of these but the third image is Ron Lemens video is here. If someone reblogs with a source for the other two I’ll add them.

Thanks Sorry-So-Sorry!

Tuesday Tips SUPER WEEK - Hands This is the first post about hands. Other posts about hands in the future will cover “hands in relationship to the body”, “different characters, different hands”, “expressive hands” and “hands touching things”. If you have suggestions for Tuesday Tips, write me a personal message. Norm

So I have this really awesome book called Giovanni Civardi’s Complete Guide to Drawing. It’s stuffed full of awesome references like this, and since I know a lot of people struggle with hands, I would share some of my favorite pages. Let me know if you’d like more, this book is absolutely filled with this stuff. 

An ultra fuck-ton of human hand references.

A workable fuck-ton of male archery references (per request).

[Please note that the top two images of the white statues are for weaker bows; typically, the bow will have a stronger pull weight. The front arm would be fully extended and straight, and the hand gripping the arrow would not be pinching the arrow itself.]
