Well this is pretty Cool!

Ever Wanted to just sit down, draw a few posed figures or animals, and get in some quick sketch practice? Well, now there's a website that'll help you get some good poses to draw in between visits to your local figure drawing club or association.  The awkardly-titled Figure Drawing Training Tool is filled with a variety of choices for subject matter, including mixes of clothed, nude, male, female figures, and animals of all shapes and sizes, including selections of animal skeletons!  The web-tool even comes with a range of differently-lengthed drawing sessions, going from a quick 30 minute sit-down to a whopping six hour marathon.  The good news is that all of these sessions have built-in break times, to let you stretch, relax your eyeballs, and chill before the next wave of figures.  And, as you can see, there are controls next to the image allowing you to pause, skip through images, and stop the session altogther as your life deems necessary.

The only downside to this is that you are using photo's, and they will never give as much information as can be gleaned from your own pair of eyeballs in a real studio type situation.  But perhaps a tool such as this can entice people into practicing enough to want to attend more live-model drawing sessions, so who knows-- this may become something really special!  So, don't be a sourpuss.  Try it out, and if it gives you enough a neat-factor, Donate a dollar and help keep this tool in good spirits!
