If you stand to one side of a person doing a thumbs down and look at
him or her this is what you'd see.  You don't have to assume that the
artist and hand are attached.

I don't know who would be able to do the maneuvre above. But your hand
would be great for a thumbs up! It just needs some fingernails. Here's
my alteration.


                               :(|
                               ' |
                            ___|  \
                           (_[)_   `._____
                           (__ [)  -.   |
                           (____[)     -{
                            (__[)_______|===


I've also altered your thumb's down to depict something a real person
could do.
                             _______
                            (_      '-.___
                           (__            
                           (__           
                           (___     __.===
                               )  .'  
                              .' /
                              :(|

And here are the thumb's up and down that I have come up with on my own
earlier.

Oh I'm so embarrassed. Of course if one looked in the mirror, one would
see that very hand. I was looking at my own hand when I said that was
impossible.

I take it all back. It's an excellent gloved hand doing a thumbs down.

You remember that the human body has 2 hands?  ;))  And this is a left one
thumb down?
