By far the best hand tutorial out there. ...or at least, one of my personal favorites.

"Very simple" I couldn't have don e this in a thousand years, tysm

[maroonrangoon]

thank you for this tut! I not only learned how to model a hand, but learned a lot more about the mesh tools/modeling toolkit as well; I've hardly been using it before now.

Thanks for that! Great tutorial pointing out good details and anatomical features which are easy to miss. Love the music too, made everything totally stress free :)

It was truly humbling to see you work with such efficiency and confidence

It's so hard to find good tutorials online. Usually the hosts spend too much time on the intro and its gets to the 10 minute mark before I get to the answer I wanted all the while the person making it thinks they're a comedian waiting to be discovered. This is a really good one. Props to you.

This is great! thank you very much, this has been really helpful
And i don't even use Maya, i use Blender. The fun part is, I even followed a Blender hand modeling tutorial, but this is way more efficient and simpler.

even tho i'm not using maya i can replicate the same workflow to 3ds max just didn't realize that it's this easy to make :D thanks a lot !

Hey dude, great tutorial! thanks so much, I liked the noise in the background, it was soothing

[Shrooblord]

"Didn't look at reference" -- no, but you have internalised the anatomy of the hand to a tee. Totally awesome. Thanks for the vid! Will need to learn some Maya keybinds to fly through the controls like you did, too!!

[Domzdream]

Damn son! Well done.
I always get the hand right....eventually. But you did it so fast. I’ll definitely learn and remember the steps to make hands *your way* . Good job man 👍

[MrDizuki]

Dude, you are a godsend. Nothing harder in art then hands and this is by far the best tutorial I've found.

[JoshBowman]

Fantastic, fast and to the point, great tutorial!

[leafpirate]

Very inspiring and helpful. Love the ambient music.

[orpheestmort]

Thank you for the great video. Answered all of my questions and now I've learned how to model a hand^^

Even though this is 7 years old, this is more helpful and taught me more little tricks with maya than my professor has this semester so far. (its midterms)
