Hi friends,
looking at your question I learned something for my own workshop. Thanks for that ;-)
I attached a gif .
As you can see I would suggest the spelling of the Angle Hand with the thumbs outside.
Looking at the whole row 1-6 and comparing it to the flat hand positions you will understand the principle.
Valerie recently offered a wonderfull gif with additional positions which can express the exact angle of the fingers towards the body accurately.
Nevertheless - your suggestion number 1 would be o.k -- everybody would understand that.
Suggestion number two isnīt right. The hands donīt show to the left or the right but are in front , fingers up, palm up -
Time will show wether this typical sign should become a typical exeption from the "rule " (follow the thumb)
Following my intuition I like it but following the "rule" I got accustomed to the writing with the fingers on the thumbs side ;-)
I added some DGS signs showing different positions of Angle hands - the way "our team" is writing them in Germany ;-)
All the best and keep on posting questions.
We all can learn from that !
Stefan ;-)
