Not only is the hand in extreme
perspective with the fingers coming out
at you - but the arm is as well. Proportionaly, the hand
looks WAY too big, it's bigger than the head. But no, it's
not, the hand is closer to your eye than the head is, so the
hand will appear larger than the head. When faced with such
a challenge, it's best to use your pencil and measure rather
than eyeball it, because it's difficult to guess how large
to make the hand. So on your subject, measure the hand
against the rest of the body that is visible so you can get
the proper proportions down for this drawing. |
