I agree completely!
A designer knows he has achieved perfection - not when there's nothing left to add - but when there's nothing left to take away

Now that I've discovered the self shot function on my phone's camera, I can make better use of my own body as a model.
For this one, I got myself in a similar light to the Joker in the source material (light coming over my top left), and took a few snaps in the pose. Then I cropped out my arms, positioned them on the image and traced them. Then just used the original photo from my phone as a reference for the shading.
I find it's quite difficult to adjust light on things like fingers, so it's best to try and get it as close as possible in the photos. Even though my phone is pretty low res (apparently 5MP, but in reality nothing close) I find it a useful tool.
