Ok we start with basic arm armature made from foil

Image:

Ive added 2 sheets of clay to make basic arm shape

Image:

Here im wrapping some clay around the armature
just to get some clay on there ill cut off excess or add later if i need to

Image:

here youl see ive made VERY rough hand shapes ,
what im doing right now is just getting clay on there to make a rough hand shape before i begin the sculpting of the hand

Image:

here im just rolling rough sausage shape for fingers

Image:

Ok here ive cut the fingers roughly to the lenghth i want them
they wont be quite as long when i finished as i once they are applied to the hand i push them down so they taper from where they meet the hand to finger tips.

Image:

here the thumb is attached, see also the begining of the thumb pad on the hand

Image:

here just adding another fat pad.
I add three to the hand ,blending it how i want it later on

Image:

Here adding the third fat pad to the hand

Image:

Adding small balls of clay to form knuckles
and you can see ive added creases to the backs of the fingers using a needle type tool

Image:

Here the knuckles have been blended

Image:

Both hands ready for baking
