I always refer folks to this tutorial:

It has good hints on making nearly every part of the human body. The tutorial's done in 3ds max, but it transports fairly well to AC3D (especially with the latest AC3D version plus the Divide Loop plugin).

For hands:

http://www.3dtotal.com/ffa/tutorials...arc/glove1.asp

This doesn't use a reference image, but it's definitely a good idea to do so to keep your hand in the proper proportions.

Unfortunately, there's no foot tutorial with toes (this character wears boots). Fortunately, the hand tutorial should work as a good template. I've never made feet, but I imagine with a reference drawing and the lessons learned from the hand tutorial, it shouldn't be too terrible a process...

Aside from the glove/hand tutorial, however, the entire tutorial is well worth a view. Quite honestly, you almost don't need the tutorial text, as the images do a great job of walking you through the entire process.

HTH
