Yeah, I actually follow those proportion tips and steps pretty closely for hands, I just have trouble translating what's in my head to paper. I think a pose will work and it doesn't and it blows the whole flow of the picture, stuff like that. I just need to get over my hatred of drawing them. And I really admire Udon's work because she makes it look so easy. (As do all great artists.)

I'm actually doing a color version of Bedtime Story right now. I figure I have to keep coloring or I'll lose the knack; I started this whole monochrome thing because I can dash them out in a fraction of the time. I'll shoot you a link to the colored one once it's done, if you like.
