Phoro References
Hi Matthew -
I think this is a great photo reference! The light source looks like it is from one place, unlike many professionally done photos, and most of the details look clear and understandable.
Do you have access to Adobe Photoshop? Using that, you can enlarge, you can lighten to get a better look at details in the shadows. I have found it really helpful. If you don't have access, maybe someone online here who is better at using it than I am currently can help you. But if noone else volunteers, I'll be glad to give it a shot. I had one horrible reference photo for a drawing I mistakenly agreed to do for a friend. If it hadn't been for Photoshop, I would have been lost.
You're right about needing a stand-in for color work. Or using your stand-in to pose for color reference shots.
