Alright..this is a bit easier to draw them...but your know the main part before your fingerz..the actaul palm of your hand and shiz..yeah..sketch that as a box and draw stick figured joints for the fingerz and then then about where the flesh will go...

Reference material is alwayz good too! 3nodding

Indeed, a reference can help a LOT. Since we see our own hands so much we sort of take them for granted, so many people have a hard time drawing them because they are so much more complicated then whe'd expect.
I suggest for good practice to draw hands using a skeleton for reference, to grasp the way the joints work and the proportions better. 3nodding
I also suggest drawing large, I get the sense that you generally draw things kind of small, which in itself can make it much more difficult to make hands look right.
