Nice and easy way to check values (not only by turning the image to greyscale, but also limit it to ~3 values): http://eldritch48.blogspot.ca/2014/01/ph...alues.html

One of the best blogs I've read on composition, staging scenes, focal points etc...it's aimed at animation but so useful for illustrations and comics.

Aw so Cute :D Thanks for that I need to drawing in pencil and start coloring. I have that thing where I am trying to get better at drawing side but leaving out color theory for a while.

There is this thing called animal webcams or something. It's a 24/7 streaming of an animal's life, there are ones for mockingbirds, tigers, cheetahs.

This one is for 5 cheetah cubs. It's so amazing.

Just google webcam streaming (''Name of the animal you want'')

Almost forgot, I compiled this big list of resources whilst in school, gathering from School resource page, fellow students, and my own sparse research during projects. They're all in this blog post for you to look through: http://t0h3ll4ndb4ck.blogspot.com/2013/0...-list.html

[edit] I'm going back to add a few more new ones (mostly ones I found on this forum actually). Already found broken links and fixing/removing them. Sorry for the inconvenience!

[edit 2] Just realized one of the link is the Andrew Loomis's Figure Drawing for All its Worth, which seems very popular here, so I'll single out that sub-link here as well. All the pages are in image format: http://www.fineart.sk/photo-references/a...rew-loomis


Focus.

Inspiration: Some quotes, either by artists, or applicable to art. Also a lot of big-name artists posting very helpful articles, if you've never been there before.

I played with the idea of a Resource link collection for some time now.

Maybe you know Delicio.us as great tool for managing bookmarks. Unfortunately due to several owner changes that tool is not very good anymore.

I finally found some free software that let set up alikewise server. and here it is - an art centred link management system. http://artrefs.net/

I already added over 300 links - (i am still adding all the stuff of this thread - i have it till page 4 now).
Every link is tagged. the main tags are refrence, tutorial, brush, artist, blog
you can search for words in the title of the webpage or for tags. e.g. "anatomy"
you can register and make your own bookmark list - adding own bookmarks, maybe with uploading your browser bookmarks, download your list again, taking bookmarks from my list, add tages and so on.
You can up-vote and down-vote links you like or dislike. This way we will get some overview about the good stuff soon.
Don't search for a resource link in several forums anymore - put it in a central one.

The server is still fresh and there may come a domain change sometimes, but for now it is up and stable. I will make backups regulary.

Go and see, help to let it grow and gimme feedback please.
