correct forms of address in nobility
movie screencaps
cinematographer. amazing set photos
more movie screencaps. cleaner site
2mil+ face database. so many search filters. good for facial features in character design
my personal fav palette generator
[PAID] croquis cafe. recently became paywalled :( their insta (at the bottom) has some of the stuff. It’s included for the sake of completeness, but op is a trump supporter, so I wouldn’t recommended.
historical fashion w/ narrow filters. all the fashion is like super white though. i genuinely cannot find any nonwhite compendiums its really annoying please tell me if you find one
random gen medieval city overhead map
random gen 3d model mansion with a floorplan!

adobe suite (or individuals) in the torrenting style. I hate adobe. the site is in russian but I trust it with my life. just use chrome autotranslate. it’s torrenting, tho, so get a good torrent downloader and a vpn. I use windscribe; you get 10g/month free if you let them email you (which theyve only done like three times in 2 years), and you can get only 2 bucks/month unlimited data with their build-a-plan. not sponsored just love em
others’ masterposts
hate to use pinterest, but it has the only archive of a gigi d.g. tip and seems to source everything
pinterest rec from a pal. trust em w my life, there’s some good oneoffs and case studies
reference/stock alternatives to pinterest so you never have to go there again
found this on a years-old reddit post. art book pdfs. one-offs. sai portable. this is a goldmine. make sure to check out “anatomy for the artist” in here, it’s a very valuable book
half these links are probably broken, but every good art ref list needs a section of broken deviantart “how to draw a skirt” tutorials. this is the Contained solution
Excellent, all around! Focused on specific program tips, but has a bit of everything

HOW TO DRAW RESOURCES
FREE THINGS YOU CAN FIND ON THE INTERNET
Art Fundamentals
https://drawabox.com - Great for art fundamentals and the very start of your art journey. If you stick to it you’ll get a great grasp on the more technical side of art fundamentals, but I’ll be honest, it can be rather boring!! If you just started out, I recommend using Part One and doing your best, because it’ll give you a good control over your choice of media be it pen or tablet pen. If you go further in…honestly, there’s been some great results from it based off of the reddit.
Proko (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClM2LuQ1q5WEc23462tQzBg) - Teaches how to do figure drawing in particular. Pretty much the origin of a lot of beginner artist’s and how they draw figure drawings—in particular, because Proko himself is inspired by great artists such as Glenn Vilppu. Most of the content found in his channel has a “premium” vers, but honestly, you don’t need the premium. It just goes more in depth and more into the technicalities. Of course, if you think you need it, it’s definitely a worthwhile investment!
Digital Painting
https://www.ctrlpaint.com - Seriously, it’s an entire free library on how to digitally paint. Most of this content can be utilized throughout different programs, such as Krita and Medibang and Photoshop. If you’re starting out digitally painting, I recommend utilizing this resource because the artist behind it went into a LOT of detail on different tips and tricks. Need help figuring out your workflow? There’s a video for that. Sketches? There’s a video for that.
Photographic Resources
https://characterdesignreferences.com - Y'know how pinterest has that same ol aesthetic of some girl pouting up you that you can’t escape no matter how many diverse things you follow? Well, this has far more than that. Character designs, art books, body types, skin colors, film stills, etc etc. Go here first if you’re after non-irl references.
https://line-of-action.com/practice-tools - Has timed classes to practice your gesture drawing, or you can increase the time so that it’s more like a live study. Has figures, animals, hands and feet, expressions, and environmental sections. One of the earliest resources I’ve used. Great in combination with Proko’s lessons.
https://www.adorkastock.com - A very great resource! Stock images done by a group that have been doing this since 2007 and have one goal: get you to draw accurately! You want fantasy art? There’s a fantastical sections! There’s jumping poses! There’s a little bit of everything! Also one of the earliest resources there has been.
PAID RESOURCES:
https://www.3dtotalpublishing.com - Publishes books dealing with art topics. Very indepth. I recommend “Art Fundamentals 2nd edition” and “Art Fundamentals Theory in Practice”—-learn art fundamentals, then critique your own art in the scenario that for whatever reason you can’t find an art group that does it! Caution: the text is rather small for my tastes, but I have notoriously bad eyesight.
https://www.nma.art - NMA is basically for people who want an art school experience but can’t quite afford actual art school. When you enroll, NMA sends you a list to the course guide. There’s multiple different tracks to choose based on what you personally want to learn. Sculptures? How to draw animals? Illustration? If you felt like it you could honestly just learn whatever you personally feel like doing at that minute, but personally I recommend sticking to the course schedule for the sake of structure. Has a lot of famous artists on here—remember that Glenn Vilppu person I mentioned? Well, he’s on here too. He teaches his own courses! Nice! NOTE: NMA is best suited for people interested in traditional and classical art, but they emphasize that you can use whatever media suits you best. If you can adapt the traditional lessons to digital, then more power to ya!
https://www.svslearn.com - A structured approach to learning illustrations, especially children’s illustrations. Great for digital artists, and also has a 30 day free trial if you’re a bit iffy. There’s also a lot more classes other than the curriculum list! It’s a art school designed by a couple of childrens storybook illustrators, so if you’re fascinated by cartoonish drawings I really recommend this site for that path. They also have a podcast that delves into the topic of art!

Looking to learn to draw something new? Touch up on your art skills with some practice exercises? Get started in your art journey?
I’ve put together a google doc linking to a bunch of art resources and tutorials for all those art learning needs! >:3
Everything there is categorized and tagged for easy searching and I try my best to add more when I can. If there’s any subject that you feel could use more references, just ask, and I can do my best to find more.
Blog Tag Masterpost
list of all the tags on this blog
Hi, if you don’t mind me asking, do you have any tips or ways that help you draw plus sized people that you can share?
Hello!! I'm not the best teacher, so I don't know if I'm the right person to ask for tips (especially since I tend to BS my way through my drawings lol), but I can at least share some links that I hope help you. :3 (links work as of May 09, 2023)
WARNING: the following tutorials will show partial nudity.
Recommended 1. Bramble's tutorials (includes how to draw fat women and fat athletes) 2. Tutorial on fat bodies (OP deactivated) 3. The best books I've ever laid my eyes on (and they're pocket-sized!!) 4. Fantastic database of fat body references (will need to email OP for password requests)
Personal favorites: 1. How to Draw BEEF (the main tutorial I've used for drawing muscular men and muscular fat men) 2. Fellas Tutorial (not really a plus-sized tutorial, but it helped me draw bodies that weren't just sticks or horrendously muscular)
One of these days, I'd like to host a small art stream dedicated to sharing art tips that I've learned over the years.

(fun fact: this one was the harderst one to pin down the exact location, I only knew bc of an article that the schooting took place by "Wey Navigation" which is a river long 32km (miles), I tried to find a better mention or through google maps comparing place for a long time but couldn't, finally I wrote to the River Way Navigation organization on facebook but they had no record of the shooting. Finally, in one of the photos I noticed that in the background there is a footbridge that I saw a photo of a similar footbridge while searching on a history of Wey Navigation river on the UK National Trust page and fortunately the previous mentioned facebook page knew where it was, WAHOO! :))
