Free Exclusive resource from Jimiyo: Skull Reference Photos

Sep 17

Freebies

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.

Also an update: Thanks in part to your votes, jimiyo is in the final five over at the DBH competition! That is really an accomplishment. The votes have been reset so make sure to say thanks for these great resources with another vote. Good luck jimiyo!

    So...took the Wacom to these and I'm loving my results :) Thanks again. I'm going to buy a model skull soon!
  • artninja
    Soooo much less work than trying to talk a live person out of their skull ("What? It's not like you're REALLY using it. C'mon. Please?"). This is incredibly handy. Thanks!!

    thanks a lot! Just what i´ve looking 4!!
  • Wow, how could I miss this post? Great reference. Who does not love to draw skulls, but somehow I hate to draw them so freakin realisticly. I prefer the comic approach.
  • Matt
    Thanks for this, I just got a wacom today and this will be great practice
  • Brilliant ref material - thanks!
  • I dont know how your blog came up, must have been a typo, i duno. Anyways, I just clicked it and here I am. Your blog looks good. Have a nice day.
  • Thanks for the nice reference material - this is perfect.
  • trucpham
    Hi, I really like the skull pictures above and wanted to download the pictures for my drawing practice. However when I downloaded it, I was unable to see anything. The file name ALLSKULLS with a Quicktime PDS icon, when I double-clicked on it, it shows just a tiny black box image. There was no way I could enlarge it.

    Can anyone help me please??!!!

  • Many thanks for these images! I'm a newbie at PSE so will use them to practise with. First experiment on my blog.
