I know we’re coming out of winter… but any pros out there have creative ways of keeping your mouse-hand warm while modeling for long periods of time lol
I’ve used fingerless wool gloves on occasion and I have a pair of light fingerless cycling gloves that work well for that. The cycling gloves are thin but surprisingly warm.
I always model indoor
Haha! I hear that helps.
I guess I just have poor circulation… I get into a modeling flow-state for a couple hours and then I try to warm my hand on my coffee mug, but then also realize my coffee is cold…
At the start of the pandemic I was doing live models from my garage. It was a very cold winter that year and I THINK I did a few session wearing fingerless gloves… might have to search through YouTube for an image of that…
EDIT: No gloves, just a beanie and, at one point, a branded hoodie.
fingerless gloves as well.
I usually have warm hands, but weeks where I’m under the weather (figuratively and literally) they help.
Plus, since I have short fingers (compared to my palm size), it makes is WAY easier to find gloves that fit.
Here in Finland dwellings are well insulated and kept warm, but this winter I have gone through chemotherapy that makes me especially sensitive to cold. I have worn the kind of thin white cotton gloves cleaners use or librarians in rare book libraries.
Thanks all for humoring me. It seems the consensus is that I need gloves. As a stop-gap measure, I have found an old (clean) lonely sock and cut finger holes in it…
did you add ears and eyes and a pink nose to your mouse - hand puppet ?
edit : oh wow, you already uploaded a photo on wikipedia as well !
My violinist daughter has sometimes had to play with fingerless gloves.
I suppose you could set up some heat lamp to shine on your hand as long as the glare didn’t get in the way.
