Robots hand

I did a hand of the robot as I decided that some bits of the animation will be made in live size.
The hand will be used to open the door, lift stuff, hold a cigarette. To animate hand doing those things I need it to have two fingers, pointing and the fuck U one. I build those two fingers with screw joints. The other fingers are made with one wire each with additional wire twisted on the bone bits of the finger so that they would not bend. I build the whole thing on a chicken wire net, as its quick and fun to role it into a tube, and its easy to add metal wire to it.
The hand is designed this way as it needs to correspond with the hand of the robot model.

I'm quite happy with what I end up with.
