Any advice for what to do when posing a character with four arms? I don't know how to pose the other two without them just doing the same thing as the top two.

This is an excellent question! I’m glad we can tackle some kind of inhuman anatomy here too.

First, let’s look at the different ways to position the second pair of arms (there are many other ways, but these are very common):

Second, positioning can have to do with the character’s emotion or personality. Here are a few ways to show that:

In the end, I think it should also come down to silhouette (how the character looks in one solid color, no inner details). If that looks clunky, the whole thing looks clunky. A good pose should make a good and interesting (if not clear) silhouette.

Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.

Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

Your butt reference got me wondering! (now that's a sentence, huh?)

Do you have SFW references of poses that would be used in suggestive settings? Like various hugs or casual touches so the limbs dont look stiff or weirdly placed, or even something like perspectives for kneeling in front of someone?

If not, do you have any idea who may have some? There's unfortunately not much I can find that isn't just straight up pornography screenshots :/

Pretty much all my stuff is SFW even in themes, though I do have some couple and group poses where the interactions could be (and have been) used in more mature content. I should have you covered for like casual romance though, I hope. :') My DA Archive has a Romance and Couples Folder (which includes romantic groups, too), my main site has an option to sort for pairs and groups, and my Ko-Fi has the Romance Collab Pack I did with @nyxnaiastock and the Tico & Seven Pack featuring gay Latino models.

If you dig around in the Patreon archives there's more stuff in there including single image refs and a few packs that might be applicable like The Polyamory Pack, Buddy Pack, Trio Pack, and Nova & Starlight Highlight Pack. (Those are all accessible at the $2.50 level) You can check some of @null-entity's older stuff because he did a collab with another model a few years ago that was pretty steamy (I know some of those are on his DA) and also theposearchives is an actual couple who do refs together so they DEF have some more intimate stuff including a whole NSFW pack which is clothed but kinky. I hope that helps!! Happy drawing!
