Isn't the middle finger supposed to be the longest of all 5? If you are going for the realistic looks anyway.

Apart from that it looks pretty neat. Keep up that sketchy work.

Pretty sure it's the angle that makes the index finger look the biggest.

Creepy and awesome. It has a sort of skeletal look to it.

Cool.

Really great artwork; maybe you can continue the body parts series till you can put em all together into a whole person!

Ya I think this is your best work.

The tips of each finger though; Some are too wide, some are too narrow.
Also- Middle finger should've been longer.

I like the background effect though, and you chose some weird colours for this.

This is great...the joints on the fingers and the muscle/tendon lines are perfect. I really like the color scheme; it's completely creepy. And the middle finger is fine. In fact, that angle really lends a lot to the effect of the whole thing. Nice work. Is that pastel or pens or what?

Thanks everyone : D.

Just to clear things up, everything I post here is completely made in photoshop. I sketch it in photoshop, I make the line art in photoshop, and then I paint it. In photoshop. It just happens to be my opinion that photoshop is the best digital art program out there, and that every artist should buy it(yes, it is called PHOTOshop, but it's really a lot better, for me at least, for art).

One of these.

Don't get me wrong though, the Graphire tablet and photoshop are great but, I draw in pencil at least 20 times more than I do on the computer. But when I get a really good idea that would work better in color, I do it in photoshop.

Very nice. Odd-looking, but cool. The angle of the thumb makes it look like a monkey's hand, and the middle finger thing that's been mentioned. I really like the colouring.

Niiiice, I like the colors you used and the background looks good. Again, it doesn't really matter that the hand isn't drawn correct, it looks cool anyway.

That is one fucked up hand. If it weren't so awkward it'd be better. Other than it's awkwardness it's ok.

The middle finger would still look bigger.

Very funky style and good work as usual. However, besides the whole middle thing that been said I also think the thumb is a tad awkward the finger-nails are pointing to left of frame and so is the thumb-nail. From an anotomical perspective in that position the top of the thumb/thumb nail should be facing to the right (or opposite the fingers). Hope you actually get what i'm trying to say. Basically twist the thumb ninety degrees to the right. Thats the only real thing that botehred me. Great stuff though!

That's a hard angle, good job.

I feel like you could turn up the perspective a bit though.

The thumb seems a bit turned in. Normally the nail would point more outward.

However, stellar drawing. Besides other usual comments such as longer middle finger, it's damn impressive.

It's meant to look like that. I don't believe that the depicted person/creature is meant to be human. Otherwise, the coloring would have been different.

I must say though, it's an awesome drawing. You really should do an entire body.

I got one of the exact same tablets. A bit of a problem though... I can't draw on paper in the first place. Nice work though. the beige-ish squiggly lines make it look awkward for me, but don't listen to me. I would never be able to make something that looks that good.

Creepy 'n' cool. I like it. A few minor problems, but they are mentioned already.
I also like the way you made the fingers, with the bones and stuff.

Nice. Creepy. I don't like the weird double circle things in the knuckles though. I get that they're bones, i think, but in my opinion it would be better without them. And that is what you put the picture up for; my opinion.

I'm all over that wrist joint there. It's just delicious. The fingers are off, sure, but it's not like art has to be correct to be good. Do a closed fist in an ocean next, or something.

EDIT: Now that I take a closer look at it, I realized just how neat the background was too. How long did that take you?
