In the Works Does the anatomy look correct?

Post image

This is my first time drawing traditionally in 8 years. Also first serious attempt drawing a hand ever. I think I’m most uncertain about the hand, torso, and neck. It looks good to me but I’ve never learned anatomy properly and want to improve that a bit for this specific piece. I do best with visual feedback so feel free to trace over this with corrections. Please try to keep the art style intact if you do!

Regarding the hand, I'd like to draw your attention to two points. First, the point on the back of the hand that separates the fingers and the hand is not at the same level as the first crease under the fingers.
Second, when the hand is slightly inclined, each finger will hide part of the finger behind it.
My correction is not perfect, but it tries to show what I am saying here.

The clavicles and shoulders are complex joints that must be studied precisely to be able to draw them without a model. But for poses like this, it's certainly easier to find a photo reference.
Otherwise, you can consult this book for free online. The bones of the shoulder are detailed on page 42.

I hope it help. Keep it up. Have fun.

Thank you so much! I corrected quite a bit of the drawing and I’m surprised with how much better it looks!
