Live Reference Models for Croquis Drawing and Character Artists

Throughout the history of Western art, drawing the human figure – from life models – has been considered the most fundamental way to develop draftsmanship. If you can draw the human body, you can draw or paint anything (except horses maybe).

Life model drawing (nude) is a traditional life-long excercise and creative (drafting and production) method for artists, illustrators, and related creative professionals and non-professionals.

As an exercise, life model drawing trains the artist's brain to map the 3D visual information of the real-world (human body) to a respective representation on the artist's medium (paper, pad, etc). Because the drawing requires neural coordination between multiple modalities, such as visual perception and motor control, it is a viable method to maintain and improve brain healt and longevity.

Life models are also available for reference, for tracing game and motion picture body and characters models.

Why to Draw Croquis

  • Stir up your daily routine...
  • Fill your brain with natural organic stimuli...
  • Have creative and artistic fun with quick sketching...
  • Or just empty your mind by focusing intensely on seeing and creating...

... while still maintaining and practising the fundamental skill of true artists!

Why to Use Live Reference Models

  • See how a real body or two bodies behaves physiologically/mechanically
  • Trace a model or a model-pair in static poses or life movement
  • Inspect balance, posture, skeleton, and muscles in different poses
  • Work with an open-minded and relaxed person(s)
  • Experience the feel of a human character holistically, and bring it to your design
