Snoball, Artyczar, thank you very much, glad you like them.
Croqui Cafe has beautiful and talented models, (I have seen that in these days they have added almost a hundred photos of her facial expressions, in the past they have posted videos where she is dressed as a mermaid, and I think others in costume too)
several times I had no other ideas on what to draw and so I tried a video of them on youtube. (now they had to remove them on youtube for nudity policy but they are normally present on vimeo and on their site) I am pleased that lately they have also added photos on the faces and for a year they have new site for photos, very easy to use and very rich . (I find the photos more comfortable even if I paused the video, my figures last a few minutes or seconds so in these years I am trying to learn them, to try to make poses at least a little longer, and having no chance, not drawing from life, I do not find the stopwatch useful, while for those who draw from life then I think it is important,)
By the way, between a few weeks and February, speaking of the models I remembered I wanted to write that they do an initiative called, figuary (I was convinced that it was called february ..), I wanted to tell you (but only as information, curiosity, without obligation) and in case someone might be interested,
I find it nice that it allows you to see various artists struggling with the same subject, every day a content, therefore an excuse to draw and then every day I put 2 videos in reality, one with the poses (their videos are always about 20 minutes, poses 30 seconds, one minute, 2 minutes and 5 minutes, before I used videos, but to finish the short ones I repeated them once or twice), other video is instructional, or various artists working in their style, or advice, etc.
2 years ago I started using the site, I made these videos but 3 months later and with my time,
last year, I actually did a lot of them in February, I didn't post them on istangram, but on wetcavans, some participated and followed their works, I think it's one of the nicest things, to see various works and draw something for a month (then I think that depending on one can make only some videos, only some poses, paused or with the video, or follow only some videos for the work of the artists, or post etc.)
this (all month of February providing daily drawing instruction and video drawing sessions.) is figuary.
