You know, I always thought the "take reference pictures of yourself" advice about drawing hands would never work for me cause I don't like how my hands look, but! Turns out! It works! Who would have thunk!
My first try was too round/detailed for the style I was going for (since I tend to just copy exactly when using reference) but after sketching it a few times stylizing it I managed to get something MUCH better than I did without a reference (i couldn't find one in the exact angle i wanted)
I'm still gonna tweak it more but man I should really try things first before deciding they wont work for me.
#it still doesn't look great/very right but I'm known to avoid drawing hands so I need more practice#idk I wanted to share in case other people have that “It wont work so I might as well not try” mental block like I do#happens a lot to me#drawing#I kept erasing my attempts before taking the reference pic so I dont have how it looked before but it was barely a hand#I was about to just put her arm down and crop the drawing lmao
