| We have a triangle to get rid off at the base between fingers. First do a knife cut as shown. |
 |
| Merge and quadify. |  |
| Depending of the exact hand you are doing, you may want to merge the 2 vertex here. It really depends, none 2 hands are the same. This small quad can be usefull or introduce artefacts. |  |
| Divide the left edge. Merge the 3 vertex on right. Quadify. Repeat for 4 fingers. |  |
| Move selected edges to have a nice shape (you may turn on subsurf to check). |  |
| Knife cut at midpoint. |  |
| Move vertex according to picture (the farest one need to be rotated) . This will be the first hand ridge. Quadify. |  |
| Move edges according to picture |  |
| Knife loop cut (midpoint). Reshape corners of the cut |  |
| Quadify. Reshape. |  |
| Divide. Quadify. Reshape. |  |
| Intermediate loop between main ridges. |  |
| Move back border loops to create room for second ridge. |  |
| Second ridge position |  |
| Thumb base ridge. you will have to divide some edges and rotate. |  |
| Divide here. Quadify. |  |
| Again. |  |
| And again. |  |
| Quadify. |  |
| Rotate. |  |
| After some cleaning and shaping, you get a nice regular mesh, with edges placed neatly to add details later |  |
| Rotate. Quadify. |  |
| Midpoint knife cut. |  |
| Again. Shape a bit. You can now quadify the rest of the triangles. |  |
| extrude thumb. resize and smooth tip, taking care that the thumb is often much larger than high. |  |
| Extrude. You will need to rotate tip as you go. |  |
| Reshape base of thumb. |  |
| We wont go in details in shaping the thumb, it is exactly like previous fingers except there is only one joint. |  |
| We only need to mark the ridges now. exact Knife cut near the ridge line, then a second midpoint cur inside. Quadify each end. |  |
| Move inner edges down. |  |
| Again. |  |
| And again. Congratulations you have finished the modelling. You will still need some tweaking, but the difficult part of the job is done. |
