odf--I didn't express my thought right. What I meant was more directed at the thumb-1 movement.
You don't have it set up to move right. Look at your thumb. That bone moves the thumb from -5 degrees away from or up to 90 degrees toward the palm on it's side to side and from 45 degrees on a maximum bend to a minimum of about 10-15 degrees, with an endpoint of the bone just inside the life-line
I was really fuzzy earlier, and WAY imprecise in my language. Antonia's thumb one doesn't move right with the combination of spread and grasp on both the outer side of it, or the inner side. The bulk of the thumb's muscle is on the palm-side of the thumb-1 and bunches up when used to grasp. Antonia's thumb gets thinner there
Using the life-line as a basis of muscle-mass boundary is solid reasoning, the only tripp-up I see (on my own hand) is the web of skin between palm and thumb joint one. Perhaps some JCM's could correct these muscle and other problems? Hands that look right up close have been the final frontier of Poser.
AND I might be picking nits,too. But there isn't enought Thumb-1 actor area on Antonia for me to even morph. If I could fix it myself, I'd do so and not bother you with it. Way beyond my ability. to do anything other than observe....and write way to much about it. :laugh:
