Touch, I remember touch! Communicating a sense of touch is tricky with normal hands, even doubly so with hands that don't exist in the world.

True! The loss of the 3 phallange really takes away a lot of nuance of expression! But I gotta say, I like the solution you came up with! Your stylization is really cool!

Thank you! I like yours a lot too. I feel like the trick is to imply the extra expression through subtle structures and postures. What I try not to skimp on is the thumb. Having all of the thumb joints is what provides necessary balance!

I was under the impression that the third phalanges are present in canine fingers, as with many (most?) vertebrates, they're just pretty small compared to the nail/claw and supporting anatomy that are part of them

I was more talking about for the sake of artistic expression the third phalange does not work the same as the human's third phallange which is more prominent and noticeable! Though, I was operating under the misapprehension that it didn't even exist, so thank you for making me look that up!

I appreciate the compliments but I'm still learning myself! x) I hope someone does get use out of it, but I also hope someone else does something different with it! Then I can learn from them too!
