Anatomy Quick Tips High Res Tips Edition

This is different than the Art-Res Anatomy Ebook.  This file simply gives you access to the current 7 Anatomy Quick Tip tutorials you see in the pic above, but in high resolution images for easy offline viewing. No Tumblr compression here!

All of them are available for free already on the website/this tumblr, but this just puts them in a more convenient format and allows people who have the means to help keep this site free for everyone else, hopefully forever!

Thanks for looking!

Free versions are kinda scattered, oops!  look through https://art-res.tumblr.com/tagged/anatomy or https://artres.xyz/categories/anatomy/

Thanks for looking and supporting through all these years 🥹

Anonymous asked:

do you have a masterpost with stock photos sites and reference for poses?? i always get a terrible art block while deciding what to draw but i don't know much ref sites with free photos.

Reference Generator for: 

And I wrote a lot more in-depth about the topic here: 

Here’s an excerpt of the article: 

Other Awesome resources & websites for pose inspiration and reference

These tools are great because they offer you excellent references, which is great for doing studies or are in need of inspiration.

Hope this helps!

Sorry I am super SUPER behind on asks and stuff. I sort of answer them out of order too. On my winter break, I probably will spend a lot more time catching up.

Thanks for reading! If this post helped, please consider reblogging it or sharing it with your friends! ❤️

$1 for color jitter brush set that I use in a lot of my work.

My fur brushes are free, but this one I have made paid so I can help support myself through school.

Thank you for looking! I appreciate it!

A sample of the effects. The two paintings in the original post were painted exclusively in these brushes. In practical practice, work best mixed with other brush sets.

Great for establishing color variation/texture/interest. A mix of hard and soft brushes to emphasize/blur different areas of the painting.

These are paid, a small way for me to fund the cost of the domain where idea and visual art generators are hosted 🥹

Thank you for considering, I appreciate everyone's support over the years!

a couple snippets from a presentation i gave at school this past week on storyboarding!!

‼️DISCLAIMER: I am still a student and have only worked on student and indie projects! This is just stuff that I personally find helpful as an amateur, so feel free to take it with a grain of salt!

Happy boarding, friends! ✍️💕

An awesome digital art tutorial for rendering realistic grass. These techniques can also be adjusted for traditional art. 

Hope this helped! It would mean the world to me if you reblogged this so more artists can see this or followed me at my main blog, Astrikos.  
As a thank you to my art-res community, I am running a contest for artists, for more details: click here. Prizes: premium memberships to DeviantArt.
