To Pose or Not to Pose...

As you've probably noticed, I've been putting a lot of artist's resources onto this blog. It makes sense since I myself am an artist, and I'm sharing the fruits of my laborious searches.

Today's site to share: Pose Maniacs

Now, it doesn't initially seem like that big a deal, but trust me, it is. This site is an English translation to a well established Japanese site of a similar name. The premise? A site full of anatomically accurate 3-D rendered models in different positions, at different angles, for free. The site has 12 pages worth of common poses that can be viewed at just about every angle with an adjustable camera angle. What else could you want? The site even has faces and hands now.

Do you feel the worth of this site yet? No? What if I told you it even has drawing exercises like the 30-second Pose Challenge?

Still no? How about having it on your iPhone?

Seriously, check it out.
