Resources for Artists
IMPORTANT:
As of 02/05/2025, I'm working on updating this site again!
However this will take some time, so stuff might look a bit wonky, I also need to check what links still work.Website compiling different art resources, done with illustrators in mind,
but perhaps it could be helpful for other artists as well.
If you'd like to add anything here feel free to drop me a message!Note: I'm not affiliated with any of the resources featured hereManaged by @REEZARD, Last Update: 24/02/2026
