My Bio

Photographer and prop builder producing images for artist to work from. I've been working on this project now for years and still trying to figure out the best way to get my images to artists. I work several part time jobs that do not always sync well together so I'm only on deviant art every now and then for an hour or so.I almost learned how to navigate the original site and this new eclipse one sucks. I hope to learn this one because it seems the options for displaying artwork are becoming more limited. My tumblr ones are basically useless now. Still working on my own website.

Artists may use my images to sketch from for personal use. A credit or tag is always appreciated. For commercial use a license fee is necessary. It is not much and keeps everything ethical.

I do not allow my work to be used with Artificial Intelligence programs or as prompts for AI.

Thank you, And please enjoy sketching our reference, Xeno

Please consider supporting our work on patreon while we are working on our indiegogo campaign. Enjoy our images and remember to sketch every day! Here is the link, https://www.patreon.com/artistfigurereference  Thanks, Xeno  PS We have added a tier for fantasy and pin-up reference in January of 2020. Lots of images to sketch and paint.

  We are working on a campaign for indiegogo to go live sometime in 2024. This project was a lot harder and more expensive to put together than anticipated but we will continue to work on it. We have thousands of photos ready to go. The Website and delivery system is the challenge. Please check our patreon for now with photos at 2400 to 2800 pixels. This site has helped us keep the lights on while we continue to gather support for the main website. Thank you.  Xeno
