My Recipe For Drawing Hands!

my recipe for drawing hands!

(small note that this is a shortcut that is more abt style and ease than anatomical accuracy. it helps to take time to really properly study hands, makes it easier to bend the rules a bit like this and have it still look good!!)

(learn rules b4 u break them or whatevah)

took a crack at drawing some sonic characters, it'd always been on my bucket list and the 3rd movie finally gave me some incentive :3

first slide. top right reads: There are many types of cleft lip. unilateral (on one side), bilateral (on both sides), and complete (self-explanatory), incomplete (self-explanatory), and post-surgery (there is no cleft), no-surgery (there is a cleft). next to it is a photo of Joaquin Phoenix with no facial hair captioned "Joaquin Phoenix has it BTW (unilateral + incomplete)". below that are four drawings captioned "Examples". They're all the same bust sketches but with different mouths and noses. The first one is Unilateral + complete (post surgery). Text box reads "teeth can sometimes be slighly visible, scar present, tip of the nose points downward, if they had surgery you won't be able to tell half the time if you aren't looking for it, easier to tell from the nose than the lip/scar TBH". Next to it is one captioned "unilateral + complete (no surgery). Text reads: "teeth are visible, upper row of teeth goes with the shape of the lip, tip of the nose points other direction". Third one is "bilateral + complete (no surgery). Text reads: "two front teeth visible but they go to the sides, upper lip split into 3 parts: one attached to the columella and two to the outer nostrils, nose and nostrils are wider". the last one is "unilateral + incomplete (no surgery)". text reads: "teeth can sometimes be visible but mostly no, nose can sometimes be flatter + wider on the side of the cleft, doesn't go into the nostril."
second slide. the title reads "Drawing a character with cleft lip post lip surgery". the caption reads "some people also get rhinoplasty (nose surgery) but I won't go into it because it just gives you a "regular" nose and I don't think this needs a tutorial IDK". Below that are three drawings from the neck up. First one is of a woman with a faded cleft lip captioned "it's not always very visible". Second is of a Latino man with a gap in his moustache and slightly visible teeth, captioned "teeth can show". Third is of a Black woman with a large keloid scar, captioned "keloid scars sometimes happen". under those is a section called "what it can look like" with "can" in all caps and underscored. text reads: "cupid bow higher on the side of the cleft, nostril lower on the side of the cleft, actual scar, pulling from the scar creating a small opening right below it, nose pointing downwards and/or towards the scar". the drawing next to it has all these differences highlighted. note below it reads "if it's bilateral: the lip and nostrils can still be asymmetrical, the lips would probably be parted in the middle if at all". the last drawing at the bottom shows a person from the side-view and highlights the nose and lips. Text reads: "from the profile, the upper lip pokes out less". a note in the bottom right reads: "note: the scar is surgical. in most cases, it will be poorly visible, and in adults, faded. in some people it's honestly invisible, but it can also be reddish or paler than the rest of the skin. facial hair doesn't grow on scar tissue no matter how visible the scar is."
third slide. it's the same as the previous one, but for characters with no surgery. the three drawings show a Black man with an incomplete cleft lip showing his teeth, a white woman with a complete cleft, and a Black girl with a bilateral complete one. the section below shows a person with a bilateral cleft from the side, as well as a close-up on the mouth itself. text reads: "the middle part protrudes further than the nose (generally), nose and middle part are on a similar angle, when the mouth is closed the upper lip goes into the lower one". a note under the drawing reads "(the mouth here is slightly open to see everything from the side)". a text box under both drawings reads "incisors can be more hidden or visible (same with gums) and they can be straight or go to the sides. the actual lip is usually invisible on the middle part because it's often on the more inner side. it can look like the profile above but it's not as common". a section next to that one shows a person with an unilateral cleft lip and misaligned teeth on a 3/4 angle. text box reads: "upper teeth go towards the nostril with the cleft" and "the higher the cleft the more they will do that. compare the chara in top left vs the one above this text box."
fourth slide. it's titled "ok but what else". below that are two busts, one of a person without a cleft lip and the second of a person with a repaired cleft but no visible scar. caption reads "how to draw the subtle differences". text continues "distance between nose and upper lip is shorter, nose more down turned (can be much more than I drew TBH), lip pulls upward below where the cleft was. This way it's still visible even when there's no easy-to-see scar." the two drawings have all these differences color-coded. section below features the same drawings, but this time they show a character with a complete unilateral no-surgery cleft. first one shows the skeleton underneath, second has skin on. text reads "in a no-surgery uni complete cleft lip, think of the rows of teeth not as two horizontal rows but more of a triangle. the upper teeth are parted into 2 sections and they don't meet, but can overlap in the actual cleft spot. they don't go into the nostril BTW." a small note reads "gums are dark red and teeth are blue so you can tell which is which" and the drawing is color coded accordingly.
fifth slide, titled "the chibis the cartoons etc." with a header "(by someone who doesn't really draw in that style I'll do my best though). it shows two chibi drawings - one of a girl with a bilateral no-surgery cleft lip, second of a girl with a unilateral post-surgery one. they each have instructions below. for the first one, it shows a horizontal 3 with an additional bump, captioned "you can do this shape (it's kinda nose shaped?", next step draws two squares to the middle part, captioned "add teeth to the middle part, boom no nose needed." second drawing has its first instruction as "draw a basic smile, don't bother with subtle differences TBH just simpify it", followed by "draw an anime girl fang upside down, remember that the lip follows the shape. you can throw in a scar too."
sixth slide, titled "other types of clefts + things to consider for the character". it features two drawings: one of an East Asian woman with a cleft going from her lower eyelid to the corner of her mouth, and second of a South Asian woman in a headscarf with an indent in the middle of her eyebrow. she also has strabismus and her cleft eyebrow is very wide. they're captioned with cleft type 5 and 10 respectively. a text box reads "these are called Tessier clefts and they're like cleft lips but on different parts of the face. There's 14 of them in total and they can be comorbid with cleft lip and palate." the last section has no drawings and just a text box titled "info that you might find useful: most people with cleft lip worldwide didn't have surgery, most people in wealthy countries get surgery as babies, some people choose to get cosmetic revisions rhinoplasties etc. when they're older (most don't), first cleft lip surgery was in 390 BC, most people with a cleft lip have a cleft palate as well, don't call it a fucking 'hare lip' it's offensive and weird".

tutorial for drawing characters with cleft lip! sorry that it's mostly unilateral-centric but it makes up the vast majority of resources and photos. still tried to get tips for drawing bilateral clefts in though.

please keep in mind that this is an introductory drawing tutorial and has some generalizations in it, so not every β€œX is Z” statement will be true for Actual People : )

if you draw any characters using this feel free to tag me!!
