Here are some hands in the simpson style. These would work with Homer, male and female kids, and any fat character. The other characters such as Flanders, Lenny, etc. have hands like these with slightly longer fingers. The thing to rememeber is 'keep 'em plump.' I'll do a female version later.

I agree, this can be really useful. When I was drawing Simpsons, hands were my biggest problem. Thanks

Yeah, hands were always a problem for me as well. When I bothered to attempt drawing, that is. *cough*

Eyes have always been a problem for me. Oh, and hair! I can never seem to draw Lisa or Maggie with 8 hair points. Only 6.

Well, this solves my Simpson hand-drawing problems.

Hands are always difficult to get right. Even cartoon hands. People see their hands all the time and intuitively know when a hand looks wrong in a picture - even if they can't draw them. Which is my way of saying I find this very useful.  Moreso than How To Draw the Simpsons, which had a few flaws...

The Scots (originally Irish, but by now Scotch) were at this time inhabiting Ireland, having driven the Irish (Picts) out of Scotland; while the Picts (originally Scots) were now Irish (living in brackets) and vice versa. It is essential to keep these distinctions clearly in mind (and verce visa). 1066 and All That In the world it is called Tolerance, but in hell it is called Despair, the sin that believes in nothing, cares for nothing, seeks to know nothing, interferes with nothing, enjoys nothing, hates nothing, finds purpose in nothing, lives for nothing, and remains alive because there is nothing for which it will die.

Ooh, very good! I never really draw in the Simpson/Groening style myself anymore, but these are excellent poses and helpful for thinking about cartoon character hands in general.

Well, I must hand it to ya, those are pretty handy... *silence*  Since I've always in some way messed up hands, I usualy try to hide them; behind a gun, a door, under a table or somthing just to save the picture. But this should be really helpful. Nice one Morpheus
