I ended up getting tons of pics from people to draw. I'm working on the grainy and smaller pics first doing groups of hands on single pages. the first page you can see I was a little stiff and not getting the images well. The second page I got a little more warmed up and by the 3rd page I'd really got them down. I'm already feeling more comfortable drawing hands.

I figured that drawing the less detailed hands would be easier but in fact I think it's probably a hard things to start with because I really have to focus on the shape of the hand and if I get the angle of the thumb wrong it really just doesn't look right. I have to look at the negative space, the stuff around the hand and all that fun stuff. 

I'm making my way through the stack faster than I'd have expected.

Anyway, you're really here for the pictures so here they are:

You can see that I'm a little awkward with my lines and shading in these hands, the fingers are too long, or too short, angles are off…
 

This page I got a little better, a little looser and things started to come together.
 

And here the shadows match up with the images the lines are right. I'm feeling more comfortable with the hands already.
