Nice, and a trippy background. Just practice hands, they look like puppet hands. And that's creeeepy.

Well, you probably do have one or two of your own. Just draw them in different positions and try to remember important details. Your unconcious will save the information and you will soon get better.
I'm actually doing the same thing right now. Been drawing naked dudes for anatomy for about half a year :/

Oh, "for anatomy," eh, GD? Sure... ;)

Another thing to help out with the hands, Xelandi: they're rather small here. Even given the ridiculous proportions of a Basitin (you did pretty well getting the disproportionately huge ears the right size, nicely done), hands remain roughly the same proportion as for everyone else -- an outspread hand is roughly the same size as their face. You can see this compared on yourself. That'll help make even the more mitten-shaped hands like you have here look more natural.

Thanks for the tips.
It seems I can draw hands when they are open, or in various other positions, but I just have problems with drawing them holding stuff like swords.

The legs look kind of awkward to me and his bangs look kind of skinny, try to add more thickness to the bangs next time. But other than that, this is pretty good.

That comes with practice, you just have to pratice what you know you are currently lacking in skills (or the one that you think is more lacking than the rest). Try drawing doodles or such on some paper or drawing book (you should keep it to see how you progressed).

That's all I can say for now, draw and do your best !
