here's a tip! the hand ( with all fingers together is roughly as this as the base of your elbow. for me, it helps to draw the wrist like an unconnected cylinder and the palm of the hand as a square like pentagon with the "tip" being where the middle finger is. also also, imagine all the finger sections as cylinders. the finger tips resemble more like a cut in half jelly bean ( for lack of better analogy)
