It's pretty cold there. I'm honestly expecting something frozen and dangerous to come out.

Spotted this website: a variety of shop front photos. Mostly around England, a bit of Scotland and Wales.

A great resource of reference images. Obviously, can't use them directly, but as inspiration, they're good.

Small reminder to people searching for references in this day and age using google.

#NoAI #art #3dArt #ReferenceImages
Add "before:2022" to your image google search to avoid AI generated images

Never thought about Obsidian as a reference gathering/organizing app. But it looks like it's really good at this. Not only you can drop your images there, but also put a lot of other contents (like links, web sits, vidoes, etc.). It even plays gifs :)

When searching for #ReferenceImages you might want to avoid ai generated ones. They have already flooded the internet and it's tedious to filter them out manually. There's a simple trick to help with that, at least on google image search: add 'before:2022' to your search term.
