Trying my hand at drawing hands while also trying to get a good footing on things
These books provide great references. And Morpho's "Hands and Feet" is helping me as I try my hand at drawing hands while trying to get a good footing on things (no pun intended, perhaps?). But anyways, I really like the Morpho series. Great for intermediate level sketch artists or those looking to brush up on drawing after not having drawn for a while. Neat & compact. Can easily pack with you when travelling and the binding style is what I like about these too. You can conveniently lay them down as they remain propped open while sketching in your sketchbook."Hands and Feet" is the second book of the Morpho series that I've bought. "Simplified Forms" being the first one. I recently just finished that one and have now just started on this one now.I still feel like I have a long road ahead before I feel like I've reached my goal/level. (I'd like to one day be able to draw hyper realistically and also to draw like Kim Jung Gi) But I feel like the journey never "ends" per se, as there's always room to learn things.

Great reference
I've had this book for a while now and carry it around with my journal. I feel my drawing technique has improved by using it.

Morpho Hands and Feet (book 5)
Small book, quick and easy reference on that subject so many find difficult to draw. The book explains why and offers an insight on combined structural and surface thinking. Many extreme views of hands and feet, showing what other books don't, with interesting explanations and a more comprehensive understanding.

Very good reference book for fine artists
Seems like it has every hand or foot position you would ever want to draw. Good for artists like me who don't always have a human model to copy from. Extremely insightful, just a heads up that it mostly shows simplified COMPLETE sketches of the hands and feet, and is not a step-by-step beginners book.It does not explain how to draw the hands and feet... that's up to the artist. But it DOES show correct proportions and I find it an invaluable resource.

Binding is done on Purpose and it's a great portable reference book
This is a great reference book! I got the hands and feet because I always need help with those. It's small enough that I can easily carry it in my bag with supplies. I know everyone keeps talking about the binding but I take it they have never had a book binding class before. The binding is left exposed on purpose. It shows the excellent craftsmanship of the bind. I don't mind it at all. The book has a lot of great references and I am using it all the time when I am looking for a specific foot or hand pose to go along with the body I have sketched.
