I am Interested in The lecture. All the Lectures.

[GoGoNeji]

You.Are.Godly.

[IanJayT]

Amazing, thank you. You have helped me a lot!

[LoveMuffin800]

My art teacher showed my class this video...

[Vaekke]

your tutorials are magic. Everything seems that much less frustrating with drawing people! Thanks dude :D

[701Platoon]

Nice Video on drawing hands, Very helpful.

[rusepro123]

Okay, Like you should already know this but YOU ARE A AMAZING ARTIST!!!! >:D Jellousy! lol I envy your ability to complete your sketches xD. I love your videos and Just wanted to ask your opinion on saving up for a cintiq tablet (like the super expensive pro one) and skipping the baby steps or getting a regular tablet that connects to a computer like Intous 4 .

[vastoceanblue]

awesome vid..was hoping for interlocking fingers.

[stoneoffarel]

thank y0ou sooooooooooooooooo much!!!!!x

[xWhiteSuitAnon]

It BAFFLES me how much I learned from this one video. Finger lengths, thumb and wrist placement, knuckle placement. Even with your "Its 4am, I should probably make a video" voice, I took in and understood everything. I just recently dropped out of college and this is why. I'd rather learn from peers than from a worn out professor who just needs a paycheck.

[AllyAnimation]

Thank you for all of your time. You help me so much!

[AnaFariaable]

Thank you! 

[ZinaBoom]

Лучший урок по рукам! Respect

[RigelTheIV]

WOW PLS tell me are you doing that with the mouse???? :O i cant imagine how would u do that with the hand!! xD really cool!

[tirckyspeed]

@RigelTheIV

it's done with a tablet :P

[FunheadIncorporated]

This is awesome. thanks... but you make it look so easy!

[TheSkullranger]

dude are u drawing with a mouse or are u using a drawing tablet?

[AFightingPanda]

Hey man I want to say thanks a lot for this. I have struggled to draw hands for years and This is approach is different than anything else I have seen. Your short hand is simple and to the point. This is really a great place to start and I cant thank you enough for sharing.

[NinjaNeko93]

I am only 9 minutes into the video and I am already learning!!! Wow all the books on how to draw hands that I read are not as helpful as this video :D thank you good sir!

[Jonobi06]

Brilliant! Very in depth!!! :)



[kimmywimmy1st]

Omgd i havent even watched this video but i think its gonna be awesome cuz every1 is saying so! :D

[Christomb]

Nice tutorial.

[jennynguyen1231]

[diana24462]

omg i love you XD your amazing at making videos and your drawing is awesome. i couldn't find any video that were good and when i found one it just confused me. but this was easy to understand and now my hands are looking a hundred times better.thank you so much for taking the time to do this.

[24edy]

our teacher :D

[nic3690]

Master!!!!!!

[feistemania]

handsome^^

[nelbox81]

wow. more than 10.000 views and zero haters. Rare thing :)

[peacefulmind12]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, and I definitely will be using your teachings as a reference source. Peace and Joy to you

[chaconmcfly]

I have never been in a class where someone would explain as good as Sycra

[zhu777hao]

That is great!!! you helped me get out of the hardtime with drawing hands!

[StaticShock13]

Thank you very much for videos like this Sycra. I've learned so much from watching your videos and I went from drawing terribly to drawing things I'm proud of (still not too great though lol). I really like the way you did this tutorial and I really hope to see more videos like this in the future. Thanks.

[BTNH108464]

Thank you for the vid.

[Ponce1390]

This video blew my mind.

[keeblergraham21]

Thanks for posting. It's all good info, but what really helps me is your tip about the fingers radiating from a central spot. Seeing them this way makes it easier to keep track of the masses and it makes the hand look more convincing.

[krist0ph]

Wow, I'm not even done your video and I have a paper sketchbook, and a digital wacom tablet, and omg there are wedges everywhere...

Great video thanks!

[piensararo]

thank you, great video !

[abunigel13]

i think the fact that you teach drawing hands as 3d objects, in perspective, is the biggest reason this video kicks every other hand tutorial's ass (aside from how thorough and skilled of a teacher you appear to be.) They act like hands are 2d! I'm only 10 minutes into this video and i already want to say thank you and fantastic job.

[IceCreamProdutions]

your probaly the only person on youtube who has taught to draw GOOD hands

[cornflash]

I just noticed nobody disliked the vid (yet, must be Some zerobombers cruisin' around) Really, this vid actually does Really work. This is genious. We should have more art teachers without certificates. Not that I'd be taking art classes then..But still, people would actually get better than me in drawing.

[RAPITAdalRAPita]

thx for making this video for us. 40 minuts of interest from me. trust me boy.

anyway u like ur hand and the way u draw.. but i think everybody will tell you that.. so keep the way. u r gr8. ciao

[jimmacfx]

iPad keyboard fail.

[jimmacfx]

Love how you struggle with the ball while drawki Really lovely video. Thank you.

[brawlaventures]

a 40 min video about a hand.... THIS MUST BREAK HANDS DOWN TO BLOCKS! :D

[AliceTheDevil]

omg!!! you're so amazing!! :P i'm envious of your skills

[cartoonblock]

awesome tut

[hazeI09]

Glad this isn't "How to draw a ball" haha, nice work though.

[GrayWolf79]

Man you should really consider writing a book or becoming an art teacher. You have phenomenal talent and it shouldn't go to waste

[mikoregula]

Wow this is the first time I have ever watched someone draw for over 30 minutes.....

and enjoyed it, nice job man

[macNtires]

Thank you! This is actually more helpfull than some of the class I've had.

Hope you'll make more like this one.

[1NakedChicken1]

The fact that the wrist doesn't meet in the middle of the hand seems like it should have been obvious now that I think about, thanks for pointing it out to me.

[AshleyKScott]

Thank you thank you thank you!

[kazanjianm]

Youtube now has an OFFICIAL hand instruction video! Nice job, as always!

[MangaKaNoah]

Genius work. Years of drawing and always faulting at hands has been cured by your easy and simple guide lines; listening to your voice and seeing your movements honestly did more then most art classes.

You sound very young too; chilling that you've got so much skill already. Keep it up.

[shoyrurox]

This was incredibly helpful. Thanks very much for making this.

[CocoaRaquel]

Thank you SO MUCH for this. It really helps to have someone verbally talk through the concepts as opposed to just reading it from a book.

Would you be willing to do something like this with the feet?

[Nickmartin26]

Impresionante !! muchas gracias por compartir semejante material !!

;)

[drazx974]

Can i ask which software it is please? Very instructive video :)

[gicaustics]

@drazx974 Autodesk SketchBookPro it says so on desciption

[drazx974]

@gicaustics Sorry and thanks to you ^__^

[Roaljelly]

Please do a commentary video of you coloring a drawing.. And show us the tools you use to color "drawings" in photoshop.. Thanks..

[demonqueenzeo]

Hey Sycra, I really appreciate all your tutorials! Thanks for uploading and sharing them.

I'm sorry to ask, I know you may be very busy, but if you find some time, can you do a coloring tutorial?

[MRlaith]

can anyone recommend a good book on learning to draw the body, cant seem to find eny :(

[crazykatgurl]

@MRlaith Drawing the Head & Figure by Jack Hamm is good, but the best lesson is to just draw from picture reference :)

[MisterRaintown]

THANK YOU Sycra!

[Jiorgon]

Nice tutorial, it was really interesting, but... seriously, you try to do the position of min 27:00, IT'S IMPOSIBLE arrrgh jaja, you know that the articulations have their limitations no? xD

[blueyoshimenace]

I could listen to your voice for days! You're are just adorable.

[ectoproduction]

best tutorial i ever saw, and i saw alot, thanks for showing how you do it =)

[MRlaith]

i know many people like watching informative videos but most of the stuff you can get from books.. not that expensive and very good.

great video excellent tutorial love your work sycra :)

[Shydrow]

@MRlaith if they really wanna learn to draw they will get the books. The ones who just watch are lazy

[WALEEDQ1]

Excellent video.. i love it. .

.please .Sycra if it's possible to make similar tutorial on how to draw faces from different sides

[xXBatmanFreakXx]

Wow. What I'd give to have Sycra as my Art teacher.

This tutorial basically changed the way I looked at drawing hands. It was the single-most difficult thing I tried to draw. This showed me the right way to do it, and it isn't even that complicated! I've seen so many other tutorials that say completely different things and they seem to be steering me in a whole different direction. Like the whole curved fingers arch instead of the big bulky square. Thank you so much, you changed the way I draw.

[TimeBreaker1987]

drawing hands is impossible!

that's my prejudice at least

don't have 40 minutes right now, ill watch at the weekend :)

[elesmid]

the bset tut ever, help me alot

[Omskanielar]

Nice tut, especially the part for the foreshorten hands.

Does your graphic tablet have small scratches from drawing on it (I hear that scratching sound while you draw)? I've got one, and it got scratches after two days of using it... I think they do not influence the drawings themselves by making "breaks", but I'm not sure

[xXBatmanFreakXx]

@Omskanielar Sounds just like the texture of the tablet, not scratches or rivets. He does seem to use it frequently, though.

[Shydrow]

@xXBatmanFreakXx Yes and if your going to draw on a computer its better to use a tablet. Thus he always uses one.

[xXBatmanFreakXx]

@Shydrow Yup! I have a cheaper one, but I'm just in my teens so I don't need anything bigger yet.

[Shydrow]

@Omskanielar you might wanna put less pressure on your tablet if your making scratches. Marks don't effect it at all.

[Omskanielar]

@Shydrow

Yah, I don't use much pressure at all, I also think the scratches are not real scratches but stuff of the pencil that's left on the pad because the pencil is soft... mehh, don't know, it still works, so...^^ It's also a cheap one, from ALDI :D

[Irooooon]

Always kinda fucked up the wrist joint. AND NOW I KNOW WHY.

Thanks yo.

[jackfrosty399]

Your videos are always amazing to me. You truly are talented at what you do Sycra. Also, I don't know if you've done these kind of videos before, but it's cool to hear you do a commentary!

[Urhed]

Your pinkies are way to long and you make mistakes qutie often since you seem to stress through this whole video but I learnt much and it helps, thanks!

[lhcedwin]

Amazing !Thank you! On behalf of every one from the bottom of our hearts we Thank You for taking your time to make this video to help everyone who are interested about drawing or need help to improve 'em.We are truly truly appreciate what you did for us!Thank You my friend!
