It seems simple, but the proportions for this trick have to be dead on.

This, in my professional opinion (as an artist, animator, and creative director), is a clever trick and won't really help anyone to draw hands.

Unfortunately there really are no shortcuts to "quick drawing". If you think I'm wrong, I dare you to try doing the illustration of the video and I guarantee you it won't be nearly as good.

Proper study and understanding of proportions, forms, perspective, anatomy, and all the fundamentals of illustration are critical.
