Free Skull Reference






“You could hop on ebay and bid on some anatomical skull models (which run between $20 and $80).


Or, you could just download these complete reference photos prepared by jimiyo exclusively for the Go MediaZine. They’re awesome! Inside there are 15 high res skulls at different angles and cut out from the background. So get your Wacom tablet set up and spend an evening drawing over these reference photos. It’s fun and really great practice.”

18 Angles of the Human Skull by Kore Flatmo






Kore Flatmo created the 18 Angles of the Human Skull as a set of original watercolor paintings for tattooists and artists to use as reference and source material when interpreting the human skull.







The skulls have been simplified both in position and illustration, the shading shows the features considered basic to the form, and the poses are those that are most useful.







This is a fantastic reference resource available at http://www.plurabella.com.
