How to Draw Fists

I will start the drawing day with a very simple lesson that is going to show you "how to draw fists", step by step. I know what some of you are thinking, “What is the importance of drawing a fist”? Well how many characters have you drawn had their hands clutched up in a ball, or a fist? That is one of the reasons why I wanted to make this lesson, and the other reason is because someone asked me if I could make a simple tutorial on "how to draw fists". The hand is in a front face view meaning that the knuckles are in your face. This tutorial is going to be easy enough for anyone to take on because there really isn't anything hard about drawing a human fist. I guess that’s all I really have to say with this tutorial because what else is there to say about a fist? Except of course you make a fist to punch someone or something, or you make a fist to suggest that you are about to get knocked out or else. I had fun making the hand that is clutched up in a ball, and I think you will get some use from drawing a fist as well. Adios people, and have a wonderful day!

STEP 1.

Here is a quick look on how the fist should be drawn. Number one shows you how each finger should be drawn in with an arch, and then two shows you how the knuckle lining should be, and step three shows you the creases between each finger.

Now the thumb should be cropped inward with the top of the thumbnail straight. The fingers should look round like a ball, and then be sure to add the definition of the wrist.

Thank you for all your kind words Saber! I feel so loved right now, and you wasn't complaining, you were telling me how strong you are, by having all those things going on in your life, your one tough girl Saber, :) And there no need to throw your computer out the window, cuz I'll stay, and I bet Dizzy and Roxy are watching you too, even if they don't come back, :) *hugs* inlove
