Hello Lifers, I've just found an interesting resource site from Michael Hirsh's blog Articles and Texticles (A&T's is an interesting resource site itself). There is a site out of Japan that has anatomical figurative poses in a multitude of positions and provides exellent reference for drawings or study. Here is the site: Posemaniacs, and I've put the link on the drawing links down below as well. There is more here than initially meets the eye; if you find the 'drag' control at the bottom right of the image you can animate walk cycles or movement cycles or rotate the image, depending on how they've configured it. No substitute for life drawing, but interesting nevertheless!

Hey, what fun! Thanks for posting this, Clive-- it would be a great reference if someone wanted to "fix" some details from a live model session...
