Thanks for the commentary on the wrists, everyone. I'll keep that all in mind when drawing bent wrists that are not being pressed upon. I do like to exaggerate things a bit though, if it makes a good overall impression (e.g. I wouldn't put hyper-flexed wrists on a barbarous guy who shouldn't look like he has Ehlers-Danlos).
JosephCow: It's mainly invention, but some parts are sorta drawn from memory. Mainly the shape of the left arm, for which I was thinking of this sketch by Rubens, which I'd copied repeatedly in the past due to thinking it had the most well-drawn arm I'd ever seen: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c...roject.jpg
Artloader: Thanks. I was happy to find an old-fashioned art forum that's still reasonably active, so I like to interact and hopefully increase member retention by bolstering the activity level when I can, haha.
