Reach for the Bloom

It's been a while...

Went with some friends to Milwaukee Ciderfest this past weekend and while wandering the vender hall a conversation about hands came up. More specifically how I suck at drawing them...  It was then that a guy at the nearby booth called us over.  It was proteandavid.deviantart.com/, someone who I have to admit I had never heard of.  Then, right there at his booth, he gave us a quick (but very detailed) hand tutorial along with a list of books to read for improving ones drawing abilities. 

Needless to say I wanted to try it out first chance I had, and this is what came of it.  While it's very basic and not quite proportional, I have to say it's the best hand I've ever drawn!

Thank you David Merk for the great advice!
