Hand Practices [ Painting tutorial study ! ]

[lunaticmoon]

Today I felt like my rendering skills of hands have been quite weak lately so i'll be going through a step by step process thats easy to read for you all, that the pictures will do the talking!

So off we go!

First we start off with a background thats not white, it'll get rid of that "white canvas" syndrome and here we have just lineart!

Then quickly placed base colors of the hands I like to start with a neutral colors thats not too affected by shadow or light

Now smack in some lights!

And now we blend it!
this took about 45 mins ~ 1hr to do and it was quite a good memory jogger!

The pictures definitely did the talking :) I like the end result very much with the different gestures and the realism in the shading and colours. Did you use your own hand as model?
