After three years of modeling experience, I thought I could do hands. Yet after several hours of rigging and deformers and whatnot, here I am, having to cut the hands off of the base mesh and redo everything. Serves me right for not watching this beforeHAND
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.
@@ornitorrincoc1borgue767 Because modeling in every program is the same. The only differences are hotkeys and things like render engines, but the workflow is all the same.
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)
"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!!
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.
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.
this is definitely going to help me for my college project, I HATE hands and the way they showed us to do it but with this tutorial im pretty sure itll help a lot and be faster ! Good job
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 👍
At 27:17 you forgot to mention that you deleted the faces on the right and left. When you came to subdivide later, your "arm" gonna look like a diamond if you haven´t deleted the two faces.
Your workspeed and the background music give this video a veeery serious vibe. It's feels like a mission briefing. "do this right or you're fucked" I like it though and I'm very impressed by your demonstration!
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 :)
Well this is my third hand with this tutorial xD yes, I've failed 2 times, buuuut, I learned a little (?) I hope... anyways thanks for the tutorial, is the best one I've found.
+shitchops It's not on purpose. Sometimes you're just on autopilot and not realize you're pressing hotkeys. If there are specific sections you need hokey callouts for, I can add annotations to the video.
+Alex Cheparev Hey its ok and i understand that i just notice its hard to find tutes where people say the hotkeys that are making the tutorials.. However! while i am here what is the "smooth" hot key ? :D
yeah dude your tutorial is good and i know we have the slow and paise ability but you do really need to explain which mode you are going into, vertex, face etc
I try to explain as much as I can. Sometimes I think some things are self explanatory, and I skip them to keep the videos relatively short, but I know I need to do better in my explanations. Tutorials are just a hobby :)
its definitely not a video for beginners (sorry...the pros like Raxs would say this is very simple, but its not when you are just starting to learn) and thats probably why you don't mention every step, you go fast, but still great video with good tips.
Hey first of all thank you for the video, you are a great modeler. I have a question, how did you select all the finger faces in minute 7:06? You probably used a keyboard shortcut but I don't know it
My name is Yoshikage Kira. I'm 33 years old. My house is in the northeast section of Morioh, where all the villas are, and I am not married. I work as an employee for the Kame Yu department stores, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. I don't smoke, but I occasionally drink. I'm in bed by 11 PM, and make sure I get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. I was told there were no issues at my last check-up. I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. I take care not to trouble myself with any enemies, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to fight I wouldn't lose to anyone.
Very impressed, i loved it, however, look at your hand and look at your model, the thumb is a bit misplaced, you should be able to see majority of your nail, if not all of it on the "upper face" of your hand
Hi, how did you select the faces on the side of the palm in top view before extruding them to make the fingers? I can only switch to persp view and select them but you seemed magically selected them for extrusion. How did you make it?
It's been 5 years and i still watch this everytime i need to model a hand for university. Thankss!!
haha me too its so great tutorial Thanks

Over 5 years later and this is still solid gold. Thanks!
Its been 2 years since you commented this! :)
Thanks for the tutorial! Very handy!
god damn it
wow
He lend us a good hand for this
lol
You know, I'm something of a joker myself

Wow for being 5 years old and in a different modeling software than I use, this tutorial has been insanely helpful.
ikr? i've been doing this model in blender and i'm getting pretty much the same results as the video
@@ornitorrincoc1borgue767 Because modeling in every program is the same. The only differences are hotkeys and things like render engines, but the workflow is all the same.
"Very simple" I couldn't have don e this in a thousand years, tysm

Same here
By far the best hand tutorial out there. ...or at least, one of my personal favorites.
I search lots of video for making hand in maya. Didn t find any good video.Except yours.Thanks a lot.
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 !
I'm new to 3ds max and idek how to imply it on that software. :'(((( Do you mind to show some tutorial with me?
Dude, you are a godsend. Nothing harder in art then hands and this is by far the best tutorial I've found.
I know I've been struggling trying to create one, but then I found this video.
at 1.5 speed with the epic music it seems like he's modeling like his life is on the line, almost as stressful as surgery hahaha
Blender : you delete a cube
Maya : you add a cube
Blender: You delete a cube and then add it back in again
over 8 years and it's still so heplful, thank you so much 🥵👌
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.
this is definitely going to help me for my college project, I HATE hands and the way they showed us to do it but with this tutorial im pretty sure itll help a lot and be faster ! Good job
You're a true god and hero, amazing tutorial, amazing skills and amazing explications, just thank's dude you're awesome
It was truly humbling to see you work with such efficiency and confidence
Helped me in a pinch my model is due tomorrow and I was struggling with hands
Thanks a lot
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 👍
Give the guy a hand!......Serious though, awesome work!
Thanks!
Teach me how to make car
Omg you THANK YOU hands have always been an issue with me.
Thank you for such a comprehensive and extensive tutorial, it helped me a lot though I work in 3ds max.
At 27:17 you forgot to mention that you deleted the faces on the right and left.
When you came to subdivide later, your "arm" gonna look like a diamond if you haven´t deleted the two faces.
+Desaturateful Yes, you are right. I deleted faces on each side to make a cube into a tube.
oh really great question.. Thank you sir @Desaturateful
Thank you
Omg Thanks, i've been watching that part on a lower speed hoping i could see what he did! You saved me lol.
bro thanks for this info I thought I skipped a step
Your workspeed and the background music give this video a veeery serious vibe. It's feels like a mission briefing. "do this right or you're fucked"
I like it though and I'm very impressed by your demonstration!
I love this tutorial! amazing how you did everything in a half hour which took me 7 hours to do. XD
Model, Eat, Sleep Repeat.
Thank you a lot this helped me a lot not only how to modeling a hand also with many options that i didnt knew (sorry for the bad english)
I modelled hands for the first time thanks to you!
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 :)
Well this is my third hand with this tutorial xD yes, I've failed 2 times, buuuut, I learned a little (?) I hope... anyways thanks for the tutorial, is the best one I've found.
Hey dude, great tutorial! thanks so much, I liked the noise in the background, it was soothing
The best piece of advice that i can give any tutors that have 1000 times more experience than me is this...
Say the fucking hot keys MAAAN!!!!
+shitchops It's not on purpose. Sometimes you're just on autopilot and not realize you're pressing hotkeys. If there are specific sections you need hokey callouts for, I can add annotations to the video.
+Alex Cheparev Despite you sometimes not saying the hot keys I enjoyed your tutorial very much. You were very helpful, thank you! :)
+Alex Cheparev Hey its ok and i understand that i just notice its hard to find tutes where people say the hotkeys that are making the tutorials..
However! while i am here what is the "smooth" hot key ? :D
+shitchops I think besides clicking on "3", which only give you a preview, you can go to "Mesh" and click on "Subdivide".
+Pandastic Panda I sadly don't know the hot key for it, though! Sorry!
Very inspiring and helpful. Love the ambient music.
Very good.What music on the background,I love it,doesn't irritate the hell out of me at all.Gonna download it.
Thank you for the great video. Answered all of my questions and now I've learned how to model a hand^^
Just fantastic! Im trying to model a palm for two days now and cant wrap my head aroud thumb shape and placement. Will try your technique!
really amazing tutorial helped my homework. much thx
WHATS UP WITH THIS HORROR MUSIC
😂
Many thanks, helped me with my Uni work!
Added hotkey labels to a couple of confusing parts. Hopefully this helps.
yeah dude your tutorial is good and i know we have the slow and paise ability but you do really need to explain which mode you are going into, vertex, face etc
I try to explain as much as I can. Sometimes I think some things are self explanatory, and I skip them to keep the videos relatively short, but I know I need to do better in my explanations. Tutorials are just a hobby :)
its definitely not a video for beginners (sorry...the pros like Raxs would say this is very simple, but its not when you are just starting to learn) and thats probably why you don't mention every step, you go fast, but still great video with good tips.
Thanks though I posted this comment when I was just starting
Fantastic, fast and to the point, great tutorial!
thank you for making this tutorial, it really helped me
playing at 2x speed sounds like he's diffusing a bomb especially with that weird ambient music
So helpful! Thanks for making this video Alex.
Used this technique for a hand in Modo. Different tools but the concepts are still good.
Whether 3d or 2d hands seem to always be a pain in the ass
Oh my goodness. So helpful. Thank you so much for the tutorial. Keep it up
Thanks bro!!! you helped me on my university proyect X ) and i loved the way it looks!
your tutorials are fantastic, please keep it up
Thanks!
Great tutorial
love the music while you model!
Hello Alex, at 5:19 how did you even the position of the vertex? thanks for helping
Freaking mind-blowing, man. Good stuff!
I watch this every time I make a hand.
I for one really like the background music
Extremely valuable content. Thanks!
Thank you so much for the tutorial! You are great and you literally saved me (also I learn some interesthing things)
I slept and the video was playing in the background while hearing the music
Got lost in 14:15! How did you do exactly do the shift+delete and still got the model retained?
I know this comment is 3 years old but I just made a duplicate and deleted the finger from one and the rest from the other one
this is one of the many few tutorials on hands that's been really useful. I don't suppose you'd be up for doing a tutorial on heads?
+Maggie Harp I'd love to do one, just need to find time to do it :)
That would be aweome :D If your doing more tutorials, I'd sub for sure :D
+Maggie Harp I put out about 1 tutorial per month. Some take quite a while to make and edit...
Music is fantastic for working!
awesome tutorial dude, helped me a lot
Great tutorial, thanks a lot!
:)
omg, this ambient on a background...
Good tut Alex !
Excellent and extremely helpful. Thanks-
Thank you so much for this!
What did you do exactly at 14:12 because you say you deleted but the wire frame is still present, am i missing something? (most likely)
This is a great tutorial.
Woah! Thanks, I blew through this one, it was fun!
Thanks!
good tut! i'm using c4d but maya looks great for modeling
Hey first of all thank you for the video, you are a great modeler. I have a question, how did you select all the finger faces in minute 7:06? You probably used a keyboard shortcut but I don't know it
Shift < or >

Saved me man... cant thank u enuf!!! :3
Thank You , Perfect .
Nice tutorial! Keep it up! Very well done!
Very impressed, i loved it, however, look at your hand and look at your model, the thumb is a bit misplaced, you should be able to see majority of your nail, if not all of it on the "upper face" of your hand
Yeah I thought so as well so I rotated it upwards in the knuckle defining stage
You get a big fat LIKE, sir. Many thanks!
thanks so much man, this was unbelievable helpful! :)
longest 30 minutes of my life.
KEEP DOING THIS KIND OF THING
Very nice - thanks!
Hi, how did you select the faces on the side of the palm in top view before extruding them to make the fingers? I can only switch to persp view and select them but you seemed magically selected them for extrusion. How did you make it?
24:49 what tool did you use here? I use Maya 2017 and I can't find it
please come back with your awesome tutorials.......;(
it took him 30 mins to make an awesome hand that would take me like 3 weeks probably lol :( just learning. great tips !
How did you turn the cube into a cylinder? (near the end)
He deleted the faces on both sides then pressed 3 to smooth.
