You'll have to put the booleans in a list, since you're passing too
many arguments: LilyPond will only accept three scheme types in a row
for a markup command.

#(define-markup-command (fing layout props fingers)
(list?)

If you pass your markup through \displayMusic, it'll give you the
scheme version which you can then use for the markup command:

(markup
                    #:line
                    (#:override
                     (baseline-skip . 1.5)
                     (#:halign
                      1
                      (#:column
                       (#:line
                        (#:simple
                         " "
                         #:override
                         (font-size . -3)
                         (#:natural))
                        #:simple
                        " "
                        #:simple
                        " "
                        #:line
                        (#:override (font-size . -2) "g# "))))
                     #:override
                     (baseline-skip . 1.5)
                     (#:column
                      (#:draw-circle
                       0.5
                       0.1
                       #t
                       #:draw-circle
                       0.5
                       0.1
                       #t
                       #:draw-circle
                       0.5
                       0.1
                       #t
                       #:draw-circle
                       0.5
                       0.1
                       #t
                       #:draw-circle
                       0.5
                       0.1
                       #t
                       #:draw-circle
                       0.5
                       0.1
                       #t
                       #:override
                       (font-size . -2)
                       " D#"))))

You just need to replace the `#t' in the draw-circle commands with the
relevant entry from the list,

(first fingers)
...
(sixth fingers)

and ensure the #:override pairs are quoted properly,

#:override '(font-size . -2)
