Don’t give up! Hands are one of the hardest parts of the body to draw/sculpt, so don’t get discouraged. It sounds like your workflow is a bit off, which is likely why you’re finding it difficult to texture. I’d recommend watching these courses and then giving it another go:

Like you said, the hand is a super important piece to get right, so don’t rush! Take your time and I know you can knock it out of the park.
