i like what you did on the left hand , which is painting with your eraser. you could have done it a lot more on this to give it more refinement and chisel out the details.

[CoolDrMoney]

It was intended as a sketch and it got a little messy around the hand so I erased some of the scribbling there. One of them happy mistakes. Maybe I'll set a grey background instead and sort of draw and erase like that instead cause it did come out kind of c00l.

[rtil]

some of the details are getting lost for me, like the hand reaching out. i think it's a combination of too many competing values , which makes the silhouette weak, and not enough foreshortening. the angle in particular makes this really challenging.

[CoolDrMoney]

Yea I redid the whole hand trying to brighten it up to make it contrast more.

What would you recommend?

[rtil]

well, if i was making a piece like this i think i'd simply avoid trying to have the hand inside of the silhouette. maybe change the angle a little bit to give that arm its own space, kind of like the other arm. if i really had to make it going straight at the camera like that, i'd try to use more dramatic perspective and thicker lines to make it really feel like that hand is reaching out towards you. that would also make it the focus of the composition

[rtil]

i think this is a better silhouette, however the pose of the hand is so extreme the fingers look kinda broken.

[rtil]

heh.. well, it helps to try it with your own hand to see if you can do it or if it hurts or feels unnatural. even though he only has 3 fingers. i think the main issue is that he's not bending his fingers at all, they're sticking out straight from the tip of the finger. what is it that he's doing with his hand? reaching out? it's hard for me to tell personally

[CoolDrMoney]

Yea hes reaching out but sort of really tensing the finger muscles so theyre rigid. I tried adding a slight bend to the last variation. It's still not reading right?

[CoolDrMoney]

Lol looked at my hand finally and came up with this. This is the last one I spent too much time on this guy.I'm pretty sure I got it though if not then I'm just gonna use the best of the bunch.

[rtil]

that's much better
