Outstanding job on this… saved them as reference pics in my own collection…my daughter was standing over my shoulder while I was viewing them and was also super impressed…
Very creepy, nice job. I wonder how the handmodel feels about that? Hmmm…
Very inspiring, though!
5 stars! Fantastic work! One of the coolest hand I have seen! Love the coloring too. Was that by hand? Or did you use photo textures in zbrush to make the uv color map?
Great job. I love the way to made the bone structure, as well as the veins. it is very impressive
That is really a very good work!!!
What kind of mappings did you use?
color, Displace, Normal??? is it a Zbrush rendering?

thanks for your comments!! it’s always good to know people like your work!!
[womball] I used photoshop and bodypaint to do the color. I used bits and pieces of many pictures as a base then hand paint on top of them… A lot of layers and blending later, there’s usually nothing left of the base pictures I’ve started with!! Hope this answers your question!!

Nice, really nice. An arthritis sufferer if I’ve ever seen one! I love the nail/finger areas. 
Congrats man.

This looks cool ,nice creepy hand, it reminds me of this hand I did a while back only better. I especially like the veins. http://www.zbrushcentral.com/zbc/showthread.php?t=27091&page=5&pp=15
Love the defenition in the skulpt, very crisp work!
The texture looks very nice as well.
Fantastic sculpting !
The veins and details are awesome.
And the colouring is the best I have seen.
Truly inspiring .
Great job, those hands look like they would be rather painful to the owner. Five stars from me, keep it up!
cool
absolutely great texture !
I love it !
congrats
Wow!! Thanks again for all of your comments!!
[DerLandvogt] This is a maya mental ray rendering… I used a color map done using Photoshop and Bodypaint, a normal map and displacement map out of Zbrush and a specular map. I used maya 8 since you dont really have to play around with the headusMR normalmap tree shader anymore and of course a little touch of sss. Keeping it simple is always a good idea!!
Hope this answers your question!
