i keep seeing a discourse in the art community recently about whether an artist should omit or change a character's features based on their style.
my take on that is you don't have to sacrifice a character's feature to fit your style; it's supposed to be the other way around.
in order for us to get rid of the same-face syndrome, we must be flexible in what we draw and how we stylize a reference.
i did a quick portrait study and added notes on each process. remember that this isn't a one-size-fits-all tutorial and feel free to only take what's best for you.

Here's some notes on some of the upper body muscles so you, artist, don't need to look them up
They are not medically accurate, just enough for artists to know the necessary muscles and how they work together
I 100% recommend doing the last exercise I did to be able to actually place the muscles

hot artists don't gatekeep
I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard
Floorplanner. Design and furnish a house for you to use for having a consistent background in your comic or anything! Free, you need an account, easy to use, and you can save multiple houses.
Comparing Heights. Input the heights of characters to see what the different is between them. Great for keeping consistency. Free.
Magma. Draw online with friends in real time. Great for practice or hanging out. Free, paid plan available, account preferred.
Smithsonian Open Access. Loads of free images. Free.
SketchDaily. Lots of pose references, massive library, is set on a timer so you can practice quick figure drawing. Free.
SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.
Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.
Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.
Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.
Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.
Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

make bad art or you will always feel bad about your art. Make bad art until you find joy in the crooked lines and the off colours. Make bad art because art is about expression and artwork is never ugly because it was made by someone who has lived a life no one else will ever live. Make bad art and find love through ugly. Make bad art so you make art at all. Make bad art.

Before you go βmY aRt sTyLe iS dIfFrEnT tHoUgHβ you can moderate it and play around with your style to get it to fit.
also some tumblr/instagram posts, if itβs okay to add:
drawing black people (instagram--the rest are tumblr posts)- color, naturally kinky/curly hair, protective hairstyles
drawing asian people (goes over east, southeast, south asians--LOTS of good resources and tips in the notes from my knowledge)
drawing north american indigenous people (no images, just a textpost, but by an inupiaq person)
