I would have preferred if this mannequin was a female =-)) Regardless this was shot at work so I threw it together really quickly (taped the top hand in position and leaned the bottom arm against the torso). Just used the iphone and the overhead flourescent lights at the office with foamcore background). Curves to add contrast. Cloned out marks on neck. A little bit of the Orton effect to make it look extra clean (an alternative to the idea of adding a texture layer).
I really have NO idea how this will go over. Maybe it will be seen as a shoe-horn. Who knows. I have no shortage of hands available but I felt this was more unique and might stand out in an otherwise fleshy challenge.
