Hey, so i wanted to do something a bit more challenging (for me x.x)
and i like uber suck at ... umm posing and like angles (e.g. profiles)
(my traditional art level is about here right now...)

and i was wondering if people could help me find reference pictures
(or even tell me what i could bloody google D< b/c i'm failing at it)
or offer tips on how to draw that.
(and i really dont like drawing myself b/c i ... dont like my body? sweatdrop
- and it's bloody difficult to take a picture with the stuff i want

I have 2 'poses' i'm feeling the urge to try right now.
pose 1
      -this would be essentially a bust from the sideview, head tilted back
      with the mouth open && what i want to draw would be for the girl to
      also have her hand (away from the camera one) above her mouth and
      holding a bleeding heart with the blood dripping into the mouth heart
      and if any photos of that general 'pose' could be found it'd prob be with a
      fruit instead owo


pose 2
      - first off, i have seen the picture that 'inspired' me before (like a
      few years ago) but i can not find the thing on google imgs. bah.
      ok. so it would be ... camera is looking down at the person (ish) but at an
      angle to where you can still basically see the whole body (all the way
      towards the feet, though logically the neckish area is a bit covered up).
      The specific photo i'm thinking of (if i recall correctly) has an emo person?
      making a heart with their hands, and that heart is about eye/cheek level?



I'd prefer photos of real people (or realistic stuff), but anime-style'd works also *squints at*

I'll also probably start with females since they tend to be easier for me to draw...but male models would help also

annnnnnnnnnd
owo, if i were to post this on the main part of the website, does
anyone know what forum/subforum this would go in?

PPS: does anyone know when the Post Style 'honey' ever worked?
