Hey there, guys and gals!
Many of you asked me if I can upload more free photo references. Well, if you want to have access to all of my references, you can just get yourself an account.
Nevertheless, I just have to continue sharing at least some of my works for free, so I can make artists' life a little easier. Today, I released new album of World War II photo references, that's completely for free. Well, not exactly completely... In order to download the photo set, you have to share the album with your friends on Facebook or Twitter - that's kinda a symbolic price.

Get Photo References for Free!

Do you like this album?

Hey my fellow artists!
Many of you asked me to upload more free photo references here into my gallery. I'm gonna upload more references for sure, however, the reason why there's not as many references as you'd probably like is that I have more channels where I distribute my photos.

One of the biggest source of my photo references is my Facebook page.

You'll find more cool comic related stuff there, for example hillarious comic jokes, cosplay photos, latest comic movies screenshots etc.

So if you like my references, please support by liking my page and get more awesome free photos references
