I'm getting stuck in blending hands. Can anyone offer any advice?

it won't show because you are trying to link the page, not the image.

I'm not sure I understand the problem your having. Hands are no different than any other part, just use smaller brushes. Could you explain your problem a bit more detailed?

Also, unless your going for a VERY specific mood I would not use black and white to shade and highlight a colored piece.

Ahhh, thanks!

For one, the shape doesn't look right to me. Second, I can seem to shade the knucke bones - it always looks wrong. i'm not going for ultra realistic but its just bugging me to no end. ><

perhaps do a couple studies. Take pictures of your hands in that position to use as a reference for this or do normal graphite studies from real life to get a feel for what you need to draw.
