Welcome to Gaia! ::

I'm looking for some advice on a few things. I'm having some serious problems creating poses myself. I've been teaching myself so far, but I haven't been able to grasp how poses are done. Using the correct anatomy. After I get the pose down, I can go from there, creating the outfit, or whatever I'm making (most of the time that is). I can create headshots and bust shots with no problems really.

I'm more or less a visual artist, and need tons of references for things. I don't have a bunch of magazines that I can use for poses. But, I'd prefer to learn them, and not have to resort to using bases from deviantart.

Also, I'm looking for someone who can help me with cell shading, or give me a few pointers, using a program similar or exactly to Photoshop Elements 6.0 (as shown in my tutorials. I learned how to shade in a different way. I believe it's called soft shading. It's relatively easy. I use the dodge and burn tools.

If you want to check out my deviantart, then click here.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated :3

Thanks for the advice :3, I'll try it out ^-^

Thanks for the all the links Kumi :3, I'll be sure to check 'em all out later.

I've heard of posemaniacs before, but I forgot about the site a couple days later @.@
