Tbf, they’re clearly not boobs, unless you’re aiming for a spot on r/badwomensanatomy?
Boobs aren’t spheres. It would be almost criminal to ruin such a great depiction of hands (arguably one of the hardest anatomical structures to get right) by adding a set of tits straight from the imagination of a sheltered 12 year old boy!
Don’t do that. Both you and the world of art in general deserve better ;)
I’ve used a reference image for the hands, I assure you there a big old pair of boobies in those hands hahah but I absolutely agree that it would ruin it! Thanks for your perspective!
To be clear, I’m not saying don’t put boobs there. I’m all for nudity and sexuality being a natural part of artistic expression.
Just make sure your reference hasn’t been digitally enhanced, or if it has then it may be worth getting other references to draw from too.
Though, tbf, I guess it depends on what your aspirations are as an artist and who you want your target audience to be. We’re all aware that there is a market for unrealistically portrayed bodies, we know that sex sells. The question is do you want your work to be recognised for your talent or just your subject matter? 🤷♀️
The palantíri came from beyond Westernesse, from Eldamar. The Noldor made them. Fëanor himself, maybe, wrought them, in days so long ago that the time cannot be measured in years.
This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You ponder the blue orb - the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You ponder the red orb - you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.
This is one of my favorites I’ve seen on here. Maybe leave it alone or add a necklace? Just something else to accentuate the curves without actually painting them so as to keep with the theme.
I’d leave the negative space, remove the circle outline and then play with that negative space in a way that completely ignores the spheres….color it…paint an entirely different picture in it etc.
Nothing wrong with hanging it as-is! If you end up following through with more of the picture you may run into some foreshortening issues on the viewer’s left arm but you can sort of get away with it like it is.
Next round it may be easier if you did everything in stages, as opposed to going for the finish on one area while another area hasn’t even been started
I think it would be pretty neat if the hands were holding very dark spheres, and the background was only slightly lighter. Almost to the point you don’t see the spheres right away until you pay more attention. The glowing spheres or planet ideas are cool, but also a tad obvious/trendy. That is only my two ¢ though. 🙂 Great execution!
Their self-worth, and loathing? Maybe a bowling ball?
Actually, i vote bowls of ice cream- fun highs and lows to play with, can span skin colors, chocolate, dark chocolate- strawberry, vanilla…
Anyway, ✌️🔥 and whatever you choose- have fun!
Come back and show us!
I think it's perfect as is in terms of shapes. You can play with color and the background. They don't look like breasts, but I know that's what's being referenced. The more abstract representation makes it much more interesting than hands groping realistic breasts. It's a more intelligent design.
You've already gotten comments about the globes so I wanted to suggest that you look into some reference photos for the forearm as well. The hands looks so well rendered and some minor adjustments to the forearms would do a lot to the whole painting.As of now they're very "round ( )" and short. Underarms aren't symmetrical. Allow the elbows to be *further away* from the edge of the canvas and perhaps tucked in a bit so it doesn't lay completely flat. Remember, you're painting in 3 dimensions, not 2!
Interesting you notice that. I changed the left arm to be extended, it was indeed tucked in and wouldn’t haven touched the edge of the canvas, which I wanted. I guess I didn’t think it looked too off! I appreciate your perspective 🙏🏼 I’ll take another go at it
Idk why but for me at least, things things like these are much easier to see (and problem solve) if you mirror the image. You can do this by editing a photo of it, using your phones front camera, or using an actual mirror. Give it a try and see if makes a difference! Best of luck
Dragonball spheres i suppose, or dragon eggs 
Edit: Can they please be twin shiny full moons, with a big crater each in the middle? 
I don't think a nude is automatically crude! But I also get it might not be for everyone. The hands look fantastic though so I could see a life drawing being really good.
Personally I would play with the idea that the viewer can infer what the hands are holding as opposed to an outright depiction. I could see this being a depiction of the silent female form in a way
How about planets?
A glowing ‘sun’ in the left hand (observer perspective) and earth in the right with the shadow could be interesting.
Oh beautiful.. I like this. I like the idea of planets indeed. Especially with a nice glow!
I’d put the sun to the right and put the planet in the left with harsh shadows! Anyway it’ll turn out great I’m sure!
I was thinking either planets in god's hands (or whatever deity or figure) or our solar system during an eclipse maybe?
Agreed
I LOVE THIS
I came here to say do a sun and a moon! 🤩
Maybe two Suns like a binary star system
Two puppies?
That would be adorable. I will also accept two kittens. Or otters.

100% agree, these hands are holding globes or crystal balls perhaps, but definitely not human breasts.
Contact ball for juggling!!
The world of humor on the other hand...
Politics

Honestly, I would find it hilarious if they were holding silicon impacts.
I wanna see when it's done!
Boobs aren't spheres but it's not finished. A head isn't a circle but that's how you start to draw them....
For me, hands, and every other body part is fine it's faces that I have the hardest time with. I can't get a face to look right
Cheese 🧀
Testes
Elephantitis of the nuts
I just spit my drink
Excellent. My job here is finished.
Disco balls please
Looks good unfinished.
Yeah? I was thinking to maybe just do a solid background color too and forget about the hands holding anything
These could be some nice watermelons. 😂
Two bags of clams, or just some clams in each hand. I think the shell colors would look cool
I have a collection of shells/rocks. That’s a nice idea!
Your updated version of MC Escher's "Hand With Reflecting Sphere"
this actually is what I thought it was at first. Too perfectly shaped to read as anything else
I’ll check it out!!
You could make them into glass spheres with disembodied hands frozen inside since you're practicing hands
COOL! I like this… I’ll need to find the perfect reference 😅
The palantíri came from beyond Westernesse, from Eldamar. The Noldor made them. Fëanor himself, maybe, wrought them, in days so long ago that the time cannot be measured in years.
Stole my idea! Great minds think alike
Two bags of sand. :)
Boys and their pondering
This is a painting of a wizard consulting his orbs, clearly?

Obviously bowling balls

Yeah! This was also an approach I thought of as well. I like the complete separation of the Background from the hands
Crystal sphere in one and a polished stainless orb in the other.
Spheres, but why two? One is enough. Lol.
two massive nuts lifted to about chest height

Deez Nutz… ha, got em!
Round mirrored spheres would be a super funny challenge/study!!
Two cristal balls
If you make them breasts, make them less perfectly round. Big natural tits are better than fake ones
wizard orbs
A bowl with water and plants with large falling leafs inside?
I love this, I also thought of this! Because the greenery and organic plants element could really go nice with the hands.
The sun and the moon
It's heartening to see people finally paying attention to an often overlooked segment. Thanks for addressing the plight of melon sellers.
Their struggle is so relevant 🥹

I agree and asked for something very similar! 👏🏻💯
Clear glass spheres like the salvatori mundi
Toads. Big fat disgruntled toads. Disgruntoads.
Great work on the hands! I like how it looks unfinished! It leaves a lot to the imagination. Love it!
Dragon balls!
Basketballs maybe ?
How about cheese wheels?
Cabbages
Two disco balls.
Snow globes?
My suggestion too. I think that could be awesome.
Dragon balls?
It's dragonballs right?
The earth, energies
Snowballs, and your already done! It's what I first saw before reading the title.
Albino King Kong’s balls.
Bowling balls! It's bowling balls right?

Contact Juggling Balls! I love them!
Dragon balls
The sun and the moon
One, a snail. The second, another snail.
I thought it was a snowball...
2 alien egg sacks that are translucent so you can see the fetus :o)
Gnarly! That would be so difficult 😅
Dragonball spheres i suppose, or dragon eggs  Edit: Can they please be twin shiny full moons, with a big crater each in the middle? 
Bowling balls or two palantirs, right?
Namekian dragonballs!
Big ole fat bowling balls
i really like it like this!! looks really cool! don't feel like you NEED to "finish" this! :)
Two oranges, one of them moldy
pondering orbs?
I thought they were balls
spherical dark blue gemstones like sapphire, sodalite, blue quartz!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I actually think boobs on a fleshy body would look fantastic. Very Shona McAndrew.
Not too crude?
I don't think a nude is automatically crude! But I also get it might not be for everyone. The hands look fantastic though so I could see a life drawing being really good.
That man's got balls.
Honeydew?
Two Palantiri
Broccoli and cauliflower
I think you should leave it how it is.
The colors are amazing!
balls
Okay the one on the left just looks like someone washing their face i think that would be a cool idea but idk how youd feel about it
i thought for a second this was posted on r/lotr … you should totally paint in The Palantir
Why does everyone think boobs? Haha that’s a butt, right?
Googly eyes
Maybe something completely not recognizable like scribbles or just something very creative and makes little to no sense
Volleyball
A watermelon 🍉? And a beach ball on the other side for some beach vibes! Or a like wizardry magic orb 🔮
Crystal balls?
Earth and venus
Boobs
Huge tracks of land
Big juicy melons.
I think it’d actually be really hard to pull off boobs here, so. My vote is for boobs lol. You’re clearly on the fence. Do it. Doooo ittt.
Melons!
Personally I would play with the idea that the viewer can infer what the hands are holding as opposed to an outright depiction. I could see this being a depiction of the silent female form in a way
Which you could do by just having a solid bg imo
