125 Shoe (and Feet) References

Shoes can be hard to draw, so I thought I would make a reference pack! I also added a small set (20 images) of feet references, but I separated them into their own folders since I know some people just don't like looking at bare feet. 

There are 3 different shoes: <...

Draped Fabric Reference

I wanted to use these beautiful fabric morphs by Jepe and try a different background for this set! I think the contrast is a lot better, but the background texture needs adjusting so it isn't as sharp in future references. I also tried to lessen the jagged shadows on the fabric w...

June D&D Reference Pack

I had to split this pack into two again, so the first zip folder (128MB) contains the individual images, and the second (114MB) is the reference sheets. I'm including an extra Goblin pose where the hand is clipping through the thigh, as I didn't catch it until later but wanted to keep just in cas...

June tests and sales tax reminder!

This pack has 139 images, which includes a batch of unused body type reference, and some lighting and prop tests. Here is a preview of what's inside:

Expect the big D&D r...

Pack of 300 body type references

Welcome to all of my new patrons! Thank you so much for your support.  💚 

This pack is so big that I had to split it into two zip files! There are 300 images in one (125 MB) and 30 reference sheets in the other (109 MB) It has 6 body types and 5 matching poses each. ...

200 Hands + FAQ/Request

Here are 200 hands at various poses and angles! I threw in a few sets of claws too. This pack has the reference sheets included for a total of 220 images.    

 I also repurposed an old, unimportant post into the 2020-05-28 15:45:07 +0000 UTC View Post

Reference Poll & Monthly Tests!

I have a big pack of 200 hand references ready for the beginning of June, but I wanted to see what everyone would like me to do next. As always, please don't be afraid to leave suggestions! 

I think from now on I'll be combining the monthly tests if I end up with too little ...

Another test set

Welcome to all of my new patrons! I really can't thank you enough for the support. Please feel free to leave any requests you might have and I will try my best to fulfill them, but I do plan to make a separate post for that, along with a reference F.A.Q in the near future. 

...

Hand Reference

There were requests for more hands, so hopefully these will help! I didn't do any reference sheets for this set as the vignette was pretty strong around the borders and it honestly hurt my eyes to look at them side by side lol. 

Enjoy!

Female Body Variation WIPs!

These are still very much a work in progress and subject to change, but I wanted to do a set of models with body types that were maybe a little less common to find reference for.

 I definitely have to adjust the head sizes and proportions since I used the same base model for...

Buff Fighter Reference!

Another smaller set for all of you, this time using a pose pack I got recently! There are more poses left in it that I'll do eventually, but for now here are 8 of them. I have something else planned for the beginning of May that will be much bigger. 🤫 

80 images + 8 refer...

Buff Training Reference

The grain is strong with these.


There is also some serious creasing that is happening around the armpits on one of the models, but you can only really see it in the last two poses! These poses were modified from a free set by a user named 'squarepeg3d' to fit the size difference betwee...

Sunlit Tiefling Reference

Another test set! This time I played around with the lighting, and tried to render sunlight in B&W. I apologize for the grain in these! It tends to happen more when the light source isn't as strong or even. 

I did a few with the hoofed legs and two sets of horns, though ...

Dwarf tests (and some extras)

I feel like I need to begin this post by saying that I completely understand if any of you need to lower or cancel your pledges to me. Everything is so uncertain right now, and your money should always go toward taking care of yourself first and foremost. If you do continue to pledge though, just...

D&D Reference WIPs

I want to start by saying thank you to all of my new patrons! I really didn't expect the reference to do quite this well, but your support means so much to me and I hope these will be useful for you. 

I chose these five race to start with because they're my ...

(Requested) F L E X

This was a request from twitter for poses based off of a flexing bodybuilder! I learned a lot doing these, and pushed the model as far as I could in DAZ (or at least as far as I currently know how to) so I apologize for any awkwardness that might still be visible, especially in the poses that hav...

A New Challenger Appears

I want to start off by saying thank you so much for your support! I will try my best to keep a consistent monthly schedule of 1-3 reference posts, with at least 1 being exclusive to patrons and 1 free. If I can only manage to post once a month for whatever reason, it will be for patreon....

New Tier + Buff Reference Pack (97 images)

This post is both to introduce the reference only tier, and a free ref pack! Here's a preview of some of the images:

The reference tier is pay what you want,...

Another story dump!

A portrait of Alex (I LOVE DRAWING HER SO MUCH) another iteration of that Camilla and Marion piece and a few random sketches I did in procreate.  

Even getting a vague idea of how I want the Duke to look is exciting, because I have struggled with Sasha as a characte...

More muscular reference (now with weapons)

Since I've been having a schoolism marathon this past week (I've already watched the new Craig Mullins and Nathan Fowkes classes) I haven't been drawing as much. It's been nice to rest my wrist, but I'm trying not to feel too guilty for not having any art to show. 

I did m...

Patreon Renovation + Muscular References

Just wanted to let all of you know that if you see any changes over the next few months, it's me updating this page with new info and graphics! I want to organize everything and I might put a few polls into future posts here and there to ask everyone what else I can add to the page. I would appre...

Procreate Brushes (continued)

Ever since I got my ipad last year I've been trying to make procreate brushes that fit my very specific preferences and painterly art style. I love medium brushes and while I do use soft and hard brushes when needed, the majority of my work is done with a medium opacity modified chalk brush in ph...

Thank you.

It's that time of year when I drop in to tell all of you how much I appreciate your support! It always feels strange to call you 'patrons' though, because so many of you are my friends. I wish I had the time to prepare something bigger and better for today.

I know I've said it be...

Procreate Video Test (take 2)

Sorry if you got a notification for the previous post! I'm going to attach the video instead of trying to embed it for now until I figure out how to do it right. 

The video is short, but it shows how I drew the face studies above (along with some awkward warm-up...

Movie Studies

I really want to get back into the habit studying consistently. I stopped doing it months ago and I noticed the difference it made in my work, almost like I was going in the opposite direction of where I want to be. Instead of feeling sorry for myself about it, I just need to start doing it again...

A quick Dorian portrait!

  I missed drawing him so much.  😭 

 This took a little under 3 hours from sketch to finish! I have a headcanon that Dorian's eyes glow the same shade of purple that the Necromancy spells do whenever he casts them, so I added a hint of that here.

FAVORITE SITES:

This is a lot shorter than I thought it was going to be because half the sites are gone now, but at least my favorites are still around! I will update this post once I find more.

Free References for All

While I continue to learn Daz, I thought I would share all the test ref I make with everyone! No need to credit if you use them as reference in your art though, I just wanted to create a figure drawing resource for a lot of different things, including body types that don't have a lot of reference...

Hand Tests!

Still working on the lighting, the level of detail and everything else, but here is a small set of hand poses. There are 36 in total, and I included both the full size of each individual hand, as well as 4 reference sheets like the one above. 

As always, I would love to hear...
