Studies...Studies...Studies...








If you're wondering what's up with the mitten hands... It's based around an idea I heard in a Glenn Vilppu lecture once...to figure out the hand, you need to treat it like any other thing - Simple ---> Complex.

Don't go at it worrying about all the little forms (even as cylinders,) that'll just muck it up and stiffen the gesture. Instead, work up to it with practice.


-A mitten with a thumb,

-A mitten with a forefinger and thumb,
-A cartoon (3 fingered) hand,

-A fully human hand.


By doing it this way, you're realizing the major forms that the hand takes on, and as you move up in complexity, you retain that information.
