sounds like there are some things I wouldn't care to bring up on this computer
Just in case anyone else is in that same situation...
The first looks like pencil sketches of nudes. Nothing explicit, but probably not something you want to be staring at when you're supposed to be working.
Mike's second link is paintings of fantasy characters. Picture Bob's photos done as paintings.
I like having posing examples not so much for my own reference, but to show the person doing the posing. It's usually easier to show them what you want them trying to explain it. Faster too.
I've got a binder that I keep poses in. When I see an image that I like the pose of I print it and throw it in the binder. It's more for my use though. I don't show it to clients because I don't want them to mistake the pictures in my binder for photos I've taken. Plus, going off of memory rather than off a picture makes it easier to miss the pose just enough to make it different.
Although I like the idea of an actual posing book to show clients. I've seen a few that are made for that. Maybe I ought to look into 'em.
