Artist's Comments

These are various hands, which still have the structure to them. It should be pretty much self explanatory.

I've included a cheat for a foreshortened hand. basically you just draw the palm in bubble then add on the fingers. It's actually really simple and easy. You can figure out several poses just from the doodle I've made.

I have the outstretched palm, which you'll often see in comics. This often gets so exaggerated that it's often rendered in a way that's not quite anatomically correct. But, in comic books, that's not really the point. The point is to exaggerate and convey the point. It's a hand, so that's all you need to know, and you turn the next page to read more panels. For more correct versions of this pose see Burn Hogarth's Books, or see: [link] [link] (NOTE: These are Male Human hands)

I've also included various fist drawings. I referenced allot from the artist Jim Lee's style whom is known for his exaggeration of human figures in poses and in motion or expression. He tends to elongate feet, legs, the torso, and arms which is typical of Comic book art.


I'd actually like to welcome questions. So, if you have any please voice it. There's nothing wrong about asking, and there's no stupid questions.

This is a nice breakdown of the parts of the hand. It may b made for a more comic style, but it can easily translate and apply to realistic figure drawing styles as well because the different "parts" of the hand really do fit together like that. This is really useful, thanks! ^.^

Yes! exactly! They're all related! and, the best way to do cartoons or caomics is to study realism and fine art 1st, and it'll improove your abilities in cartooning & so on.

You make such an excellent point!

Very astute & perspacatious! :D

Well done!

:icongorgeousaur:
so when drawing do you really draw the bubbles and such first and then go on to the details or is this just more of a reference for those of us that are new at it?
:iconblackunigryphon:
yes, I draw everything! Lots of bubble figures and stick construction lines. I start it very lighty, then when the proportions look right, I add in the details, add contour lines, and rfine the line quality.
