So I have been recently using a combination of SAI 2 and CSP EX for my drawings nowadays so I figured it would be time to update my preferences and post them on here for the yall to see and use too :3
For my CSP brushes I tend to use these ones which you can find for free on their asset shop. I use ALOT of other brushes in CSP but they are also mainly free ones.
so that just about sums that up :3
Few examples under the cut of these assets being used together:

Free and public hand references for artists and creatives!
Posemaniacs (a free online anatomical reference website for all artists) have released "Hand-Viewer," a collection of 30+ hand poses you can view from various angles!
Posemaniacs was created by a Japanese person, but it's available in several different languages, including English. :D
The Hand-Viewer is free and public for anyone to use!
https://www.posemaniacs.com/tools/viewer/hand
I'm sure there are a lot of people here on Tumblr who would find this resource helpful!

Posemaniacs official website (for more anatomical references):
I know I’ve posted some of these before, but here’s some references from what I’ve drawn to help you guys who struggle with drawing hands and feet. Most of the feet here are in shoes, but that’s still helpful. The hands aren’t necessarily in any order within the pages, but the hand pages are sorted by recency. The top is most recent and bottom least.
Tracing is fine as long as you give a little credit when you post. It can be as simple as just “thanks @friendly-neighborhood-imbecille for the hand references”

hey friends, if you’re like me and struggle with drawing poses, here are some good sources!
Online, browser-based
Justsketch.me - awesome poseable doll site. There are lots of models, but some are paid. I’ve had some issues with zoom, but otherwise it’s really cool.
Line Of Action - great for warm-up sketches and learning anatomy
Posemy.art - similar to JustSketchMe, but slightly different layout.
Apps
Pinterest - OMG I love this for references. There are so many different creators on there, plus you can find much more than just drawing references.
Clip Studio Paint - huuuge gallery of models, all adjustable
MagicPoser 3D - awesome assortment of body types and options.
One last thing: I like to search for vintage sewing patterns. They were specifically made to look easy on the eye, while also showing off the clothes. I’ve made lots of drawings with these.
