Reference Photos

[Spren of Kindness]

Random question for those of you who use references for your art - where do you like to find pictures?

I decided to give it a go today because I suck at drawing masculine features, and landed on unsplash, but I don't like the layout of the site very much.

I just steal manga styles from various animes.

I get most, if not all of my references on Pinterest. If Pinterest doesn’t have what I’m specifically looking for (e.g., Jade and Floyd Leech from Twisted Wonderland in their dormitory outfits), I look it up on Google.

There be a crap ton of art on Pinterest to reference, not to mention tips with anatomy, faces in general, how to draw certain things, etc. Pinterest is an artists best friend #notsponsered

I have definitely thought about that since I deleted my Pinterest account last year...
