Description Let's talk a bit about referencing today. Although I don't heavily depend on this, I think every upcoming artist who wants to improve their skills should use this method when the start. If you can't find references for a pose you want online. With modern day smartphone cameras it's easier than ever. 
Referencing allows you to avoid anatomical errors many when you are drawing arms and hands or more complex poses where it is harder to imagine the motion. However please do not mistake referencing for tracing, I try not to trace the pose but rather redraw it based on the original image, chase tracing won't really help you grow as an artist unless there are times you have to depend on rotoscoping for animation. 
Here's a commission I did a few weeks back. .

1. Great work on that character.


2. You know what's actually kind of funny - I was just reading your description and the second you mentioned today's smartphone cameras I immediately thought of rotoscoping - not your drawing, but that if we look how far the technology came, animators have so much help for their work in their pockets.
