Some hand references.
Redid a post by fucktonofanatomyreferencesreborn with sources because they never source anything and I don’t want to reblog that post because I don’t want to support blogs who don’t give credit to people
(No, stating that the art is ~not yours~ and ~came from elsewhere~ IS NOT PROPER CREDIT. Many of these have usernames and such on them but not every single one and you still ought to link back to the specific piece)
I couldn’t source the last one so I didn’t include it.

I have trouble with male pony types. Well any pony type really. >v>);;;
So I made this for a reference for myself! I never realized how many tall and skinny ones there was haha.
Anyways, maybe this will help someone else to——
I didn’t draw the REALLY huge ponies because I don’t think people use their figure much to make OCs.
(( I’ll reblog this here just in case anyone else needs help! ))
captainamerica-in-middle-earth:

Hello I am from tumblr and I understood that reference that you have just made
im so confused and i demand to be informed
I don’t see how a gif of the forest is helping anyone.
Do not fucking start!
HOW DARE YOU
Harry potter jokes aside. That is a great reference for animators and artists alike though.
Mostly cuz you can see the bones and how they perform, use them as a guideline for your animation or drawing
HUGE cache of drawing and art related book PDF files.
There’s literally hundreds of great drawing, manga, comic, painting, sculpting, and art related books on this site. The website language is in Russian but many of the books are in their native language. Hopefully this is as helpful to many others as it was to me!
Okay but seriously though.
It doesn’t stop doubtful manga looking artbooks.
There are anatomy artbooks by Vilppu, by Matessi…Artbooks from video games( ac , thieves …) , Artbooks about zbrush modelling, 3DS max lightning how to texture properly. Even how to concept art for video Games !!Without mentioning artbooks from movies ! From Miyazaki to Pacific Rim, I encourage you to check them out. This post doesn’t have nearly enough notes ! Fellow artits, share the references around ! =D
These are the brushes I usually use.
I use Paint Tool SAI for most of my images.
Some of the blotmaps and textures are from this pack.
I don’t take credit for any of the shapes or textures in the pack, I have borrowed them all from other artists.
I need this again here!
DarkStocker (Contains content that maybe disturbing. Wounds/gore)

If you love animals or drawing then you should add this book to your collection. The Art of Animal Drawing is a crash course in not only animal anatomy, but usage of lines, page composition, animation and more! It covers over 20 different species, but the material itself may be incorporated into any type of figure drawing.
There’s an online version of the book HERE, or you can purchase it on Amazon.com
holy shit this is beautiful
