The first dorsal interosseous is a muscle mass located between the thumb and the index finger metacarpals on the backside of the hand. Squeeze your thumb to your index finger and see for yourself: this muscle mass pops out and creates an egg-shaped bulge.

theyre a metacarpal of a bird and theyre tinyyy and extremely fragile and kinda lost part of their body. but theyre extremely smart with mechanics and can replace missing limbs with robotic ones :D

Metacarpals are well up there as they are both cool looking but I also know first-hand how crucial they are!

Both gorillas and people have 5 metacarpals and gorillas do not have any "extra muscles" in their hands and fingers. They do have slightly different shapes to the bones and more developed muscles which allows for knuckle walking. Metacarpals in red

Good morning to that one gorilla researcher who realized the character designers on Disney's Tarzan decided to have Tarzan shift his body weight to his thumb to make up for not having a third metacarpal bone in his hands like actual gorillas.

On cord, shared a typo from a school powerpoint that said the fib tertius leg muscle goes from the fibula to the 5th metaCarpal instead of metaTarsal. asked me to draw it, so I made a wizard psa:

Rigging and Weight Painting Hands No.2: Yep, failure again.
Tried a new rig after watching some Maya tutorials about adding metacarpal bones to the wrist...fingers crossed tomorrow will be more successful! 🤦‍♂️

As are the 8 carpal bones and the soft tissues tying them together. These connect with the metacarpal bones of the hand - the articular surfaces of the MTCs that touch the carpal bones are also part of the wrist. So as correctly said, there’s overlap! Pt2
