      Number 6 and number 30 look rad! Keep up the great work. The best way to get better at something is to just go and do it 🙂

        Thanks everyone! I was not sure at first if I was going to post about this topic - but now I am glad I did!

        And @Ace-Connell yes number 6 is my favorite so far. And I found it interesting after doing so well on 6 that I sort of tanked on the attempts of the closed fist on 7-10 right after. That is what makes this a fun challenge and keeps it interesting - and lets me know what things I need to continue to work on more!

          @Rich-Green Yeah, I always find that as well where you'll do something great then have a bit of a lapse, but if you do enough, the end result is always better than the beginning. I think what the repetition and making mistakes does is take the luck out of the drawing. Sure before you did the 50, you might get lucky every 5 or 6 hands and get a good drawing, but by the end of the 50, it'll be more like one in every 3 and so on until you're consistently getting better hands 🙂

              Getting better 🙂 Those finger pointing at the camera poses are a killer... I hate doing those haha.

                And this evening I went ahead and did the final set and now I have all 50 completed. I also made the last few a little bit more fun!

                        @Lee-Holland Thanks so much Lee! I really enjoyed this challenge and now looking back at some of my drawings I did a year or two ago that included hands and then these 50 and the sketching i have done since doing them - wow what a vast improvement I am noticing in myself already! Please share your hands if you decide to work on them.
