Thank you. Yes, I use models for my drawings, but only for the face. I change clothes, hair and certain facial features to suit who or what I'm drawing.
Me too The faces are a very personal thing and it can be difficult to get individuality without a referance. I'm currently using my first Japanese referance for a Kakashi pic I'm on, and referances on Germans for a pic of Maes Hughes. IT's great practise for me too- I keep forgetting waht the small things look like as I draw >.>
