Hiya! I was wondering if anyone could direct me to some web sites that have been useful to you which have good quality images to draw from. I find it so hard to locate web sites that have images of decent quality, and I'd appreciate it if anyone could help out.

I already know of Shane Glines' Drawing Board forum with the Drawing Jam section, and I know of a few other web sites with good photos like Absolute Idols, and a very cool web site to help with fashion, Fashion TV with a live video stream, but any additional web site that you could locate me to would help out. ^^
So, thank you! ^^

get reference from life -- always an option atleast, and it's the best reference of all.

Yes, it's a planetquake site, but it's got quite a lot of stuff on it, including the loomis book.

Hope this helps in any way.

Cool, thanks guys. ^_^
I wish I could get more references from life though...it's hard for me to do since I never go outside.

There are a set of CD's for $10 a piece called "Visual Reference for Comic Artists" So far there is volume 1 and 2. Each one has 500-600 images of people, buiildings, weapons etc. Very worth the money. Go to www.buddyscalera.com

If you are looking for low res specifics for ideas, textures, inspiration, or object shapes then go to the Google Image search as somebody already mentioned.

I have a few large photos on my website that might make for some good practice. Worth a look even if you don't find exactly what you are looking for.
