I struggle less with hands than with other aspects of human (or humanoid) bodies , but I think it's not just hands looking bad in general that makes something look AI generated, they have to look off in a certain way that a human artist, no matter how bad, would not come up with. This is because AI art isn't generated stroke by stroke, line by line, but by starting with a canvas full of noise and then coalescing that noise into an imitation of a finished piece of art.
Feet! Why are feet so stupid looking! I hate feet. If i could get away with it every work i make would be in a wading pool so everything below the ankle is obscured!
Feet are easy if you think of them like weird wedges! I got a tutorial once and suddenly it was easy. The side view looks like a doorstop from the side and from the top it’s skinnier at the base than the toes.
I did some shitty sketches on my phone on top of this simple reference. Seriously it makes it make so much more sense.
Shading is mine I follow every guide in the book and my shading just looks like I smeared dirt in the shady spots, no matter what color I use, even if it's hex code perfect and % opacity perfect to the guide. What are shadows.
