How to draw gesture resources

I want to collect here some links which inspire and help me in gesture drawing. I do them rather simple, those were done in 90 seconds:

Perspective? Easy! + WIP

If you always struggle with perspective like I do, here is great solution: small and easy to use program called Carapace. You can find all information and dowload it here: http://epicgames.com/community/2012/11/free-art-tool-released-thanks-to-epic-friday/
So here is my sketch, done as final home work for Roman's on-line class and its WIP. I've used Carapace to build three vanishing point perspective.
Anyway, Roman corrected it and now I see, that composition isn't so good, and I doubt as for color palette...

Combat Sim Randomizer and Generators for artists

City generator
Character generator
Lots of various generators

So here is very simple script that gives you 3 random numbers according to Autodestruct's Combat Sim 1 Virtual Art Director (read his very very cool article about concepting!). Just open it in a browser and press "refresh" to change numbers. Hope it helps))

Free Digital Painting video tutorials

Here are some great tutorials you should see. What I value the most - not just showing a process of good painting, but also explaining WHY and HOW.

Anatomy resources for self-study

Here I want to share with you some stuff which I use to study human anatomy ) I also would like to clean the mess in my resources and categorize it, so I could go back to this post in future and add more usefull information.
Don't forget to use knowlege from these books and lessons  in  drawing and painting people from life. This way you will transform 2D schemes of muscles into 3D understanding of human body.
Good luck!
