Ohohh...! This guy's so handy he could run for glovoner!...oh don't look at me like that.
Here's an excellent depiction of photomanipulation at it's best (or better). Not even a sign of adjusted picture movement, and all while giving a rather disturbing scene at the same time!
My problem is that the hand fingers don't seem to all have a more detailed shadow, the dark stopping under the palm.
But even with this slight problem, it's hardly noticable, and the picture is just to hard to not catch sight of that you really can't help but stare at the design. :nod:

In the end, an impressive creation that shows the utility of both photoshop and having 25 fingers per limb...though I'll admit it is very, very creepy. :o
BRILLIANT!!! :dummy:

First of all--I love this picture! LOL It's creepy, and fun, and weird, and pretty realistic. Definitely an interesting concept.

A few things that I noticed: the ring and pinkie fingers...hands?...the hands on the pinkie and ring fingers are twisted so that they don't match the natural twist of the fingers. Those two fingers sort of turn out; it seems the hands should turn outward, also.

On those two hand/fingers, and also the middle and a bit on the ring, the seam between finger and hand is obvious...it's mostly the hair. The hair starts and stops a bit abruptly, and I think if you could have chosen a non-hairy hand, or perhaps edited out the hair, they would merge much more easily with the fingers.

The middle finger-hand seems a bit small for how big the finger is. Comparing to the other fingers, the hand/finger size ratio is a bit small.

The last thing is more a suggestion than a correction: perhaps the thumb/hand could be a right, rather than a left hand? It seems a right hand might fit the opposing thumb a bit better than the left hand...sort of to balance out the left-hand fingers. (Critiquing a hand full of hands can get confusing! :XD: )

What I like: I love the transition on the thumb and forefinger. Except for the hair on the forefinger, they look flawless to me, and the shadows and lighting seem to match up fairly well. The knuckle lines on the thumb, in particular, really go well with the wrist/lines of the hand.

I love the concept in general. As I said before, it's interesting and a bit creepy--I'd love to see a hand like this in real life. You've done a good job matching up the colors, too (assuming they're all the same hand?). The overlying texture is nice, too.

Good job! : )

Well done man! my only comment is to work on the shadows, a bit disappointing here.
:icontoxiefox:
that is really cool!! Have you thought of using ASL and having the hands spell out a word? Dee ^.^

Thanks for the constructive critique!
In all honesty I had the idea by myself... but you're right, I just watch this and it's not the first image of this type! We must believe that I thought the same concept as them!
Thank you!

In all honesty I had the idea by myself, but "GreyGhost" is right to think that it's not an original idea, I just watch this and it's not the first image of this type... We must believe that I thought the same concept as them!

Sorry what do you mean by "Should I be giving you kudo's on a great idea?"

Nice execution. Hope to see this again with more work done on the shadows.
:iconmrparts:
If it was your "original idea" I would have heaped piles of praise on you for an original idea. Since I have never seen this before I am still going to say "Great job on this!"

It's still disturbing as hell though!
