SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.

Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.

Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.

Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.

Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.

Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

i know we joke about cis artists having the weirdest sense of anatomy, but also even when the anatomy is fine, no one seems to want to draw women doing normal things

Here it is, my long winded tutorial, complete with some step by step action. I see a lot of people talk about wanting to diversify their artwork but not knowing how. This is my help to you. You really should take the time to invest in learning diverse eye shapes as diverse artwork always makes you a better artist. And frankly I’m really tired of drawing tutorials that talk up character diversity but only have the stereotypical “one Asian eye”.

I did some step by steps for those three diagrams, but I actually got them from this blog which has 14 of those examples! (Bonus: it’s a makeup blog so if you need help with that or want some idea of how to shade these eyes, there ya go)

The result of a very crack filled conversation in the New SW Discord. We were discussing the possibility of younglings going out and hunting down Mandalorians to help them with homework. Then someone mentioned the youngling bringing along a crecheling to help persuade the Mando. (Of course, this idiot (affectionate) youngling decided to tangle with Death Watch but alas). The rest of the conversation goes as follows: 

"Grace said that you'd help me" 

"...Who is Grace" 

"You know, Archivist Grace. She's blue. She does the Mando histories." 

"She writes Mando history?" 

"Are you gonna help me or not"

“...” (the Mandalorian is definitely debating whether or not to adopt this feral child) 

“I don’t have all day and this child needs to go home soon, before someone realizes they’re gone” 

 “Did you steal this child” 

“... Maybe but that’s not the point”

*Back at the Jedi Temple* 

“Grace I found some new history for you! The Mandalorian was super nice and they had this cool symbol on their armor, like this!” *shows Death Watch symbol drawn in notes*

“HOW DID YOU END UP WITH DEATH WATCH???” 

“Oh was that Death Watch? I.. may have forgotten my Mandalorian identification card when I left.”

*Deep inhale*
