Hand is very ! But some problems too. First 1 is light. Hand (& for now I assume child) get light from left up, but the bckgrnd is other way round. Then the girl itself, the image lacks interaction with the hand. You can add some shadows around the chains to solve that, perhaps also some stronger shadows for the girl. Last thing is the bckgrnd/cloud. Unless it's done on purpose, the cloud just above the hand is distracting, as it was supposed to be in the hand but it's not. In case you wanna focus on the hand & girl I would do sth with the bckgrnd (blur, move) But !
Edit: improved, see under

if the light comes from the background(right side) why the little girl is too bright? You need to improve the light work

Good job! I agree the lighting has problems, and is that a sleeve, or does the hand kinda melt into the arm? It's not clear....

Dude you didnt give credit on using my hand? Naw but for reals though that looks soo real. I had to check the sources to see if it wasnt haha. I really like the cloud & the way the chain came out how its wrapping around

Hey author, You made some improvements, I see. It certainly made things more clear (technically speaking), so well done ! Tiny suggestion: with your improvements you stated that the main light comes from (back) right. What you còuld do is add a tiny little highlight on the back from the girl. Sweet entry!

I like the look of the image however the source is not very evident. I also question the rendering of the hand. Do you claim to have created the hand using only the source image? It seems to me that you used a photo and altered the colors. That wouldn't be wrong but If that is what you did it is misleading to claim otherwise. Your step by step doesn't clearly show the process and lack of high res image doesn't allow closer scrutiny. Clarification would be appreciated.

Haha Spaceranger when I read your comment I don't know if I should laugh or cry. Sorry man but this was for the altered the colors. As Clarification I added a sbs from the making of the finger I hope that the misunderstandings are clear now.

The hand looks so real, love the detail in the thumb nail. This reminds me of a spiritual picture with the hand and clouds, like praying hands... I like the incongruity of the light sources with respect to the sky and hand... very dramatic.
