A wonderful addition to the list!
Unsplash. Another whopping huge free images site like pixabay: free for commercial and noncommercial use and remixing; just don’t sell the photos unmodified or add them to other photo-sharing sites.
Morguefile. Big old free photo archive from the dawn of the web. “We are a community-based free photo site, and all photos found in the Morguefile archive are free for you to download and re-use in your work, be it commercial or not. The photos have been contributed by a wide range of creatives from around the world, ranging from amateur photo hobbyists to professionals.”
Open Access at the Met. The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York: “Whether you’re an artist or a designer, an educator or a student, a professional or a hobbyist, you now have more than 406,000 images of artworks from The Met collection to use, share, and remix—without restriction.”
Smithsonian Open Access. Download, share, and reuse millions of the Smithsonian’s images […] from across the Smithsonian’s 19 museums, nine research centers, libraries, archives, and the National Zoo.
Limited use, if you’re doing a Science and need control panels/rockets/futuristic an image search with qualifier site: nasa.gov You have to double-check a photo’s caption it’s really a NASA photo, but photos which were taken by NASA spacecraft and astronauts are public domain, since they’re funded by taxpayer dollars. (This also goes for images of animals archived at the USFWS Digital Library, i.e the US Fish and Wildlife Service, or rocks and landscapes on USGS websites.
Okay updating and consolidating lots of info here; as well as adding links for ease of access. Adding a brief description for some too; as is the case that not all of them have descriptions above. (Warning that some of these links contain nude refs, I will try to mark where possible which ones have more prominent ones.)
Posing Sites and Apps:
Adorkastock. Stock photos for pose refs. DeviantArt gallery started in 2007.
FreePhotoMuscle.com. (translated page link click here) Japanese stock photo pose site that includes buff people, but in funny poses and costumes.
CroquoisCafe. (NSFW, nude model poses warning) A stock photo pose site. You should be aware this org has been linked as pro-Trump. I leave it to y’all to decide if you want to use the resources or not. I highly encourage not financially supporting them and trying to support the individual models if you can.
Line of Action. Fantastic site that includes posing refs, community discussions from other artists, figure study, anatomy, etc. So much stuff in here.
PoseSpace. Extensive library of poses. Some free resources others are paid. I’ve not fully evaluated both, but you should be able to use this all mostly free and get great use out of it.
SketchDaily. This one is one of the better ones out there. You can time yourself, search by pose, clothing options, body type, perspective, etc. All real models.
JustSketch.me. A pose app for any device. Has apps for most devices and a webapp. Customize and pose models/props/scenes.
Quickposes. Pose site that gives you timed challenges to become more proficient at poses.

MagicPoser. A wonderful app that’s great on mobile. Lets you choose size of models, number of them, style, etc. Significant features are use of snap point with the physics engine, adjustable lighting, multiple perspective, 360 angle, articulated hand posing.
Clip Studio Paint Modeler. Free 3d tool that works with Clip Studio Paint. You can import your own data or other models you find online. Not quite an alternative to Blender, but the integration with CSP is very nice.
Egg a Zyoutatsu Atarichan Drawer. (requires enabling flash player or downloading and using standalone flashplayer) Drawing tool for pose practice. The developer is working on an html5 version.
DesignDoll. One of the best pose tool apps out there. You can customize so many things. They also have an extensive collection of ready made poses here. You can use the free or pay once for life and have the poses integrated into the client as well as the ability to export your obj to other programs like blender or smt.
Stock Photo Sites:
Unsplash. Giant free stock image site.
freeimages.com. Another stock photo site, less features than some others.
StockSnap.io. Stock photos with a creative commons CC0 license, which essentially means you can use the photos however you want and don’t have to attribute to them. (though its nice if you do attribute)
Burst.Shopify. Tons of royalty free high quality images. Similar licensing to StockSnap.
pixabay. I feel like most people know about this one, but it features entirely free CC0 licensed Photos, Videos, and Music. No attribution required, but still nice to support a giant site with all this content.
Viintage. Big collection of public domain vintage photos.
Gratisography. For commercial or personal use. They specialize in odd, quirky, wild stock photos.
pexels. Great free stock photos and videos. Only a few stipulations of what they don’t allow, but their license info can be found here.

RHYS MY GOOD SIR ARE YOU TELLING ME THESE WERE BOTH IMPROVISED

So how long do I have to wait until someone makes a crossover fanart??

Why You Should Absolutely Be Watching Our Flag Means Death
Look, I thought this was just going to be a silly little pirate sitcom that I could sit down and binge and move on with my life. But seriously, it’s SO good!
Now, if you haven’t heard of the show, let me start with the basics.
This is Stede.
He used to be a fancy foppish aristocrat.
Then he left his wife and children to become a pirate.
Well, a Gentleman Pirate.
But he’s not really cut out for it and things go south.
Fast.
Enter Blackbeard!
(pause to admire the wigmaker who crafted his glorious beard…. and we’re back)
Blackbeard has heard all about Stede and, quite frankly, he’s fascinated. What the hell is a guy like this doing on a pirate ship?
But the thing is, Blackbeard has been in a bit of a rut himself, and he’s ready to try something new, so they work out a bit of a deal.
Ed will teach Stede how to be a better pirate
And Stede will teach Blackbeard how to be a gentleman.
Now, I know what you’re probably thinking.
Gee, this sounds like a silly little pirate show. Maybe I’ll get around to it eventually.
Or maybe you’ve watched the first couple episodes and thought, “Eh, it’s alright. Kind of funny, but I’ve got limited time here and I’ve got a lot of other stuff to watch.”
But the thing is, this is SO much more than just a silly pirate show. It has hands down the best acting I have ever seen from Taika Watiti. He and Rhys play off each other with the silliness very well, but they also dive into some deep emotional stuff that is just phenomenal.
Oh, and did I mention that this wasn’t a comedy? It’s actually a Rom-Com between Stede and Blackbeard.
And no, it’s not subtext. It’s very much text.
Like… Literally. The show’s writer/creator has spent the last 3 weeks in every interview ever being like, “Hey, did you know that gay pirate marriage is a thing that existed? In actual history? Like they had a word for it and everything. Have you heard about this? If not, you should definitely hear about this, because this is a thing that 100% exists and is absolutely historical and you should all definitely know about for no particular reason.”
Anyway, I won’t spoil anything specific from the episodes because it’s all so wonderfully done, but… yeah. The creator ships it hard and he is fucking delivering with every new episode.
And that’s not even getting into any of the wonderful side stories with the crew!
There are multiple queer couples/romances there. Two of the characters create the first ever pyramid scheme. There’s a non-binary character with a amazing backstory and side quest. There’s roommate shenanigans, and… well, just all types of shenanigans really…
The point is, this is seriously an amazing show and I highly highly encourage anyone who is not already on board to join in with the fun.
THIS!!
Okay, now I REALLY need someone to draw Stede and Ed switching outfits with Crowley and Aziraphale. Pls, I will love you forever
Our Flag Means Death 1x08 - “We Gull Way Back”
🎵 And if you don’t love me now, you will never love me again 🎵
Everyone talking about how Ed touched Stede with his foot but did you notice Stede returned the touch as well!?!?
me watching ofmd 107+108
We’re all Lucius.
Yes, I was The Groaner for Halloween. Is the fandom still alive?
OWEN WILSON as AGENT MOBIUS | LOKI 2021
He’s so cute, help
THEY'RE ACTUALLY DATING, THEY ARE ACTUALLY DATING, THEY'RE ACTUALLY DATING💖💖
WE WON!!!
today is a good day because we are all collectively screaming over these
WHERE R THESE COMING FROM?? ARE THEY REAL??
it was a different hug. which means someone said ‘no, actually, they need to be completely in each other’s arms’
I thank god everyday for this
okay so look, what are you ppl doing?
you show us tom and owen bonding over a shakespeare play which has homoerotic implications
you give us a song called lokius and that song plays on the background while mobius drowns in his own jealousy
you change that bro hug into an intimate "i will love you forever and i don't want you to go, i am safe here" 13 seconds hug and you purposefully add a dagger into the scene
you don't market sophia and tom together even though their characters are supposed to be romantically involved. instead you put tom with owen
you name the song playing on the background during the s*lki kiss "stop" ffs
THE FUCK IS HAPPENING
I NEED AN EXPLANATION
I don’t wanna get my hopes up BUT
A family can be a soft daddy
his tall boi
and them living a blissful life together
Just so everyone knows, the music at 2:32 in Goodbyes during this moment, where Mobius seems to realize that Loki is 'the one that got away':
is the same music playing when Ravonna tells Mobius he fell in love with threw away their friendship for Loki.
All this combined with the emotional Lokius playing during his jealous rant tells me, at the very least, this in unrequited love.
Mobius loves Loki. 💁🏻♀️
