-DEMO!-
This is a fantastic, brand new release from Korundi!
The hands are rigged mesh, which means they will follow your wrist movements. One size should fit all shapes, because their size is determined by your hand size although you may need to adjust your body fat to lower values if you have it on a high setting.
With the hands are included a glove layer to match to your skin tone so the seam will be as minimal as possible, and a HUD for tinting the hand and changing the nail textures. I also included 2 different types of bangles as a bonus!
You can choose from 20 different nail polish options
from which 10 are the ever popular french manicure styles, and 10 are solid colors.
Note that the hands may not work with very pale or white skin tones.
Set includes:
- Rigged mesh hands
- HUD for color and texture change
- glove layer
- alpha layer
- HUD manual and mesh hands info notecard
The hands are copy, no modify, no transfer.
HUD is copy only.

Excellent
Not much choice on the market if you look for mesh hands... My default ones are bigger than the other brand's ones, and I want them so, pianist hands I'd say. These are perfect, I have to lower my hand size if I want to get about the same look with them, but that's ok. The alpha layer seam is well placed also, not too high on arm, so easily hidden under wristlets if necessary. The color hud is pretty easy. The shape is natural and elegant. All i'd wish for would be a 'short nails' option :). Maybe a possible evolution ?
Not good
The hands look good...but they are way too big for me and there is a problem with the wrist.
I have to set my body fat at a ridiculous high number to get the wrist right.
Glad there was a demo, will never buy it.
Almost
These hands are beautifully made, long slender fingers, well manicured nails and there it ends. I agree with Burnt Waffles review on the lip around the wrists and the suggestion for different forearms with blending alpha, it would help tremendously. I even tried what the creator had said to another reviewer and put my body fat to 6 and guess what didn't help at all.
Also, I fiddled for about an hour with trying to get the skin tone to match my LAQ skin and could not even get close, I finally gave up. I did get the glove to match perfectly in under a minute using SL color picker and if the HUD allowed manual RGB input for the hands I could have used the numbers from the glove and been done in seconds, but you can't. So these will be a no buy until changes are made hopefully in future upgrades.
Best so far
These are the best mesh hands I have found so far. I give this four out of five stars only because they are a tad big and I'm not sure the real thing is adjustable. It would be nice to have that feature in the demo to try it out if it is available. Otherwise, most lovely mesh hands I've seen yet.
Nice hands but way too difficult to adjust to most avatars.
I consider myself very skilled at creating and editing both MESH (rigged and non-rigged) and avatar shapes. I've been looking for a great set of non-standard hands for quite sometime now.
Pros: Great color changing options, well made mesh (and 45 prim land impact isn't too bad for prim hands with nails), and nice nails.
Cons: Forms a strange lip around the wrists that takes way too many alterations to the shape to fix regardless of what the ad and directions claims. The lighter the skin, the harder to cover up, I suppose. If you do make the shape changes it still seems to cause an issue with seams. Demo version does not come with demo version of bracelets (which would be useful to cover the problems with the wrists) though the description claims it to be included.
Constructive criticism: The mesh hands could easily be extended past the wrist to stretch over the forearm with blended alpha texturing to cover the flaw of the wrist seams. A few sizes with different forearms could be constructed so that they could fit any avatar without the owner having to alter the body fat or musculature so much. If a version of this came with either of these changes, I feel it would be well worth the cost to purchase a set of these hands.
