How to Sculpt Hands Out of Polymer Clay for Beginners

[@aceofclay]

Let me know what you think of this "mini-tutorial" of sorts! Should I make more of these? Maybe a new one for ears? A nose? A whole face?? Let me know! Hope you find this video helpful and it makes you enjoy sculpting hands a little more. See you again soon ❤

[@funverhau]

Definitely liked the tutorial, I'm learning digital sculpting at the moment and I think it's helping me for that too. Thank you ❤🎉

[@bikingrandma3692]

I love tutorials. Mini and full length. Please more tutorials

[@Morgan-yl3ou]

Definately more like this..... Feet and shoes would be great

[@christoffernero5829]

I haven't seen it yet, I'm just about to watch it. But I definitely think that you should do more of these instructional videos. It would be a big help when you sculpt.

[@Michellegc33094]

I loved it as well❤ maybe faces!

[@phoenix-kingz]

Probably the first and only sensible and coherent hand sculpting tutorial I’ve seen on this platform

[@LaurenVanDerHoven]

mini tutorials do help a lot because I'm starting to sculpt with clay and I didn't know where to start and this video is going to help me so much thank you

[@xKazIsKoolx]

I'd love to see more of these. I've been wanting to get into this, but didn't really know where to start, but a series of videos like this showing how you sculpt each part of the body would really help

[@mizzuzie3338]

I'm not a beginner and I'm still happy to watch a video like this. There are so many ways to create a hand so there is always something new to learn.

[@dartmart9263]

I have been waiting for THIS for a very long time, ever since I noticed your first figure’s hands a couple of years ago.

[@billbucktube]

Like it! Gotta hand it to ya…. Hands off to you. Errr, hats off. It's obvious you have hands on experience with hands. On the other hand, it is superb. I'd like to give you a hand in applause. I have needed this kind of hand with doing hands. Let me hand you a trophy for hands. Quite a helping hand. You are an old hand at hands! Handily the best hand sculpt I’ve seen.

[@maddieadams75]

Very nice tutorial. Been sculpting for over 25 yrs, always looking at others technique to incorporate or just watch. 🍁🍂🧡

[@deeval832]

I’ve been waiting for this. Thank you I wish my fingers were as nimble as yours .

[@kristim7542]

Love this! Thank you! Would love to see more detailed videos like this. Details of faces, ears! Thank you for sharing your amazing sculpting skills!

[@dollphan-nm5to]

I took a doll sculpting class over thirty years ago. I only made one more doll after the class because I was not happy with the materials. In class we only had original Super Sculpy, no wire or bake & bond or paint. I tried painting on my next doll but had no idea what to use. Watching your work has made it so much clearer where things were going wrong for me. I appreciate your information on materials and techniques I did not know about. I didn’t learn how to make hand armatures so this video was very helpful. I hope to try again using all of your information. Keep on sharing!

[@obadijahparks]

The detail series that this is starting is very inspirational. Thank you.

[@composing-chaos]

I’m glad you did this. I remember you did a couple of “how-to” videos when you first started your channel. I believe they were on creating the ear and mouth. These mini tutorials are so helpful!

[@caroldragon7545]

I love your sculpting videos. Even though I'm not into sculpting characters, the techniques you show are invaluable. This video on sculpting hands was so enjoyable as well as informative. Kudos to you, Ace.

[@amandagermany5933]

I'm always amazed at the light touch you have even with big hands. I have little lady hands and still mangle the clay.

[@barbkeith2697]

I LOVED this! YES! Please do more like these, especially ears, nose, mouth, eyes with lids and chins. Thank you! ❤️

[@vividvw3815]

Love the mini tutorial with very helpful tips and no long intro. I'd love to see more like this.

[@moochiepie2]

Ace, thank you so much. This tutorial is extremely helpful. It makes me realize that I should be taking way more time to sculpt hands than I’ve been taking. More tutorials please!

[@jonloomis3178]

love it , hands are always one of the hardest things for me

[@moonbowy]

I loved the tutorial! Hands are very difficult to sculpt. It would be nice to get more tutorials in the future.

[@chrismuramatsu6600]

Interesting sculpting hands tutorial. I would enjoy seeing sculpting faces and more detailed tutorials on the components. Thanks as always.

[@Morgan-yl3ou]

I gotta hand it to you.... A smashing video. 👏👏👏 👍🏻👍🏻

[@nailinartwithlisa759]

This is very informative. I have a hard time with hands. I think this will help. Yes please do more!

[@GertCreates]

that was so good, i find hands so difficult but this was fab to learn from, definitely more of these plz

[@sergiukc_art]

I love this and it is well needed for me right now lol Wouldn't mind seeing more!

[@samanthadean1083]

Helpful, thanks!!! ❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@queensteph8279]

I really enjoy your videos, its hard for me to sculpt lots of parts and seeing the breakdown is amazing! Would loveee a face one (and more parts) :)

[@SuperAlucius]

Love the extra detail! Hope to see more!

[@caniusdirus]

One of the few times we'll ever see Ace of Clay make a hand with five fingers! (Great tutorial otherwise Ace❤)

[@krischris5634]

I would love to see more of these type of vids

[@diyfireking]

Great work as always 👍👍

[@DakotaBurgener]

Love these mini tutorials. Could you do one about how you get correct proportions when you make the body? Do you do a sketch first or just wing it?

[@atalantus]

i'm surprising !! you finally create a hand with 5 fingers^^

[@michelleford405]

Love it! Yes please do more

[@christyparr1563]

As of today I have fully caught up on all your videos! Two MONTHS of watching videos every day…

[@ReTarDigrade]

Your tutorials are the best do more

[@gailburnette]

Sweet techniques, thanks!

[@Alt87213]

I was wondering if you could do a beetlejuice diorama for us ? Maybe something kind of on the bigger side that is maybe a 2 or 3 part video ? That is maybe mixed mediums like not just clay? I would love to see this from you and I really think others might enjoy it as well, but who knows this could just be me that would love to see it ❤ Hope you have a great day and really hope you maybe consider this idea.

[@starladawne4719]

Phenomenal video!

[@alcg3981]

Very insightful! Yes, an ear would be great. I could display handmade earrings on it forbprodict oix!😊

[@CajunCraft24]

OMG hands are sooo hard… this is great

[@donitafichter8298]

Looooovvvve it! Thank you!!!

[@debbralehrman5957]

Thanks for the Tutorial. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🌺

[@juanluisrojosierra4168]

Muy didáctico y practico 👍🏼 muchas gracias.

[@2tone209]

AY UP ACE OF CLAY

[@thescarydiaries]

love tutorials!!

[@simonflyer3677]

Awsome video. This is extremely helpfull

[@lachauntiswashington231]

This is great👍🏾👍🏾😃

[@thejohan1415]

It would be awesome to have a "how to sculpt a head without armature and with armature"

[@reich2637]

Thanks a lot for the tutorial! I would like to learn how to make faces if it's posible.

[@lechatbotte.]

Excellent

[@janahunter429]

Yes!!

[@redgrass]

Love it!

[@aceofclay]

Thank you! 😃😃

[@lawrente]

I know you hate hands, but I really appreciate this video. Go ahead and do ears soon, so you'll have it all done for awhile.

[@nadineturner4202]

Great video! Can the fingers bend on the hand with the armature after baking? Or would the clay just break?

[@motwaaagh]

I know that spooky season is coming up and I was wondering if you could celebrate that by sculpting the monster cereals. Boo Barry, Franken berry, Count Chocula, and the newest member Carmella Creeper. 😊

[@secretinc4181]

can you make lovecraft next?

[@RebeccaCorey-wy4kc]

Question, what brand of semi translucent clay is your favorite?

[@Loorrreealll]

I really like this tutorial but for the armature could next time you give like a full open view of the whole thing, since it's so mini it's kinda hard to see a clear picture with your fingers but other then that really helpful 🎉

[@rivercityminis]

Thanks for this. I want to start sculpting but im scared lol

[@Loorrreealll]

As a beginner this feels a bit more manageable that I have to make 4 and sculptures (life size, but I thankfully have baby hands) for school, never done this but I'm gonna use natural air-dry clay, instead of polymer clay

[@jeepscreeps]

Thank you Anthony! Great detailed video. Hands are a little difficult - I need more practice but this video definitely is so helpful! My clay hands always look like Mickey Mouse gloves - I need to change that! Is it okay to have the wire showing in wired hands? Will it cause issues with cracking if exposed?

[@kallistokaos1]

More tutorials please

[@romaromasalad112]

Haiii ❤❤

[@daniellestanton5680]

Have you ever done courage the dog. I would love to see you do that. God bless you and your family.

[@TheMossey2003]

You should do the feet too.

[@thegreenpsychic8351]

I know you have touched on eyes before and you have your own technique for them but I still struggle with the eye lids and sockets maybe more in depth ?

[@mariagorfiluis7676]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@PetrikNZ]

Need one for feet, bare and with shoes. There are tons out there for hands and heads but not many that cover humanoid feet.

[@ziggysimpsonofficial]

So you’re using your hands to sculpt HANDS? Trippy.

[@luisfernandorodriguez8851]

Hola como esta😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@rowanstephenson3192]

Artists say the hardest things to paint are hands … that’s why so many hide them away in portraits …this is a wonderful art thank you ..however mine end up like demented spiders… practice practice EH! 😂❤

[@PadikoyzTv]

How about feet?

[@Joltscene]

You should do legion from Dead by daylight

[@Phill_Lips]

Hi

[@a.b.mshahalam3564]

Pls face tutorial

[@cyberra0180]

It's a bit odd seeing you make a proper five-fingered hand instead of the three-and-a-thumb all your sculptures have 😅

[@benjaminpolando3660]

Day 999,999,999,999,999,999 of asking for a book accurate treebeard

[@samuellebot4390]

Wtf a hand with five fingers ?!

[@chriscoleman6956]

Next time make a foot

[@kamillemeade2082]

Ppppppp
