There's lots of awesome models on DA and lots of great places on the web to find pose reference and stock! Here's a little list of some great places to check out for some quality pose reference stock:

:icondaposes:
is a group I founded that accepts submissions of stock photos that are useful for pose reference. To be considered, the model must be wearing form fitting clothing or nude. There are separate folders for nude stock. Watching this group will result in quality pose reference stock appearing in your inbox!

:iconmostlyguystock:
Mostly male, mixed undies and nude. Some fem parts.

:iconimperialstarletstock:
Her gallery is full of great female reference including some wonderful lying, reclining and sitting poses.

:iconyoungmalestock:
Male stock with underwear on. New gallery!

:iconszuzi:
has a folder of pole fitness stock photos that are really stunning.

:icondaestock:
has recently started posting a series of images where he's in just some black shorts.  He was already providing amazing action and expressive resources, but this new series is really fantastic for pose reference. There's also some nude stock in the gallery.

:iconkxhara:
provides some high quality stock photos mainly of herself. She's recently hired a male model who will begin appearing in her submissions soon. Her gallery is very well organized and has a lot of awesome packs available for quick download. Her Full Body gallery contains some very nice archery poses which is something people often ask me about.

:iconfelixdeon:
is a fantastic place to go for male nude stock! There's also a ton of images with more than one model.  If you need man on man action, this is the account to visit!

:iconpiratelotus-stock:
has a series called "Melted Wings" which contains really dynamic pose images!

:iconskydancer-stock:
has an MASSIVE gallery, many of the female models are nude and make great pose references!

:iconahrum-stock:
has a few male pose reference images in his gallery as well as a ton of head and face references.

:iconkristinkk:
has an amazing assortment of very high quality, professional resources. Some of the models are nude.

:iconjustmeina:
A lot of male reference, mostly pretty classical, nude.

Posemaniacs is a fun site with lots of fantastic poses that you can rotate in a virtual space for reference!

Feel free to look through the Model Stock I Love folder in my favorites! This is where I tend to collect stock that I find useful for pose reference.

:iconraine-angelstock:
MERMAIDS. :D

Got any other pose reference resources you think should be listed here? Please let me know!

Happy drawing! :happybounce:

Other great stock accounts on DA that aren't exactly focused on pose ref but are way cool anyway:

I feel so lame asking this, but I can't find anyone using phone poles or anything. @_@ Like holding onto it and or stepping on it or anything. U_U My search has been fruitless. BLEH.

But holy crap I love you and all of these people! <333333

Thank you so much for these!! I was wondering if you knew of any reference stock resources with dancers, specifically male ballet dancers. It's so hard to find some times. Anyway, thanks again for all the recs :D

Daestock (on the list) has a few male dancers. [link] That album contains some on all pages (especially if you count some of the more artsy jumps).
