Gentle Liza Madrich le Gabbai: A Gabbai's How-to Manual by Rabbi Ronald H. Isaacs KTAV Publishing House, Inc.1996 ISBN 0-88125-562-9
On page 75 there are 7 drawings of hands shaping some of the tropes. Now that won't cover all the ground you're looking for obviously. Unfortunately the book doesn't come with a bibliography and the pictures aren't cited as belonging to anyone in particular. Rabbi Isaacs can probably be found and I would love to know where he got the pictures from myself.
