Artist side of tumblr,
Does anyone know of a good stock photo ref site for (mostly) accurate gun combat poses, particularly with female models? I’m going out of my mind searching high and low and only coming up with soft porn and painfully inaccurate results.
Thank you!!!
Nude model study for class on huge butt paper because my prof has a problem and only wants art to BE LARGER THAN THE ARTIST. LITERALLY. God.
Charcoal, about an hour of actual work, factoring out the model’s breaks.
The chest and torso are a bit wonky, but the prof had the model twist and naturally he couldn’t hold that for the 15-30min periods and his body slowly uncoiled, so I really couldn’t get a consistent view. That’s pretty standard though. Oh, and he was holding a broom but I didn’t decide to hash in any of that until the last five minutes because pfft I see brooms all the time but not a naked body. Priorities!
People who take stellar photos of their art:
How you do???
Seriously, I try to take pictures of my art that has a white background and it doesn’t matter if it’s in direct sunlight, overcast light, indoor light, etc., the white is ALWAYS gray. And I try to edit that out on GIMP or whatever and it never works. It just makes the colors garish and I lose all my midtones.
Any advice or spells I could use?
The rest of those fox sketches. Used real fox faces as ref and tried to emote them more. Kind of success? Eh.
