I think it would be pretty useful to have a sticky with links to good fundamentals training - if you guys know any good sources for this maybe you could post them up, as well as useful youtube / vimeo channels
Bit of self promotion, but I have a channel where I make episodes with free education, and I do cover fundamentals like anatomy/perspective/composition/colour&light, whatnot.
Also, for those who want to brush up the traditional side: illustrator Jeff Miracola as some good stuff on youtube about acrylic and oil painting: https://www.youtube.com/user/jeffmiracola/videos
We have a ton of stuff on our wiki, but more is always welcome. http://wiki.polycount.net/CategoryTutorials
The fist link in there, ConceptFundamentals, is probably the most relevant.

Ron Lemen's page is full of mind bending stuff on drawing the figure and anatomy.

They both are good teachers, and are more relaxed and non-formal, so it's a bit easier to digest than some.
Also Shaddy Safadi isn't active anymore, but he does have some good videos on his page:

Figure drawing for all it's worth is the classic that is always recommended. They are out of print hence why we can share pdfs.

I love the Alla prima books from Richard Schmid although they are somewhat expensive: http://www.richardschmid.com/books.idc
(Found this throught the polycount wiki, actually...)

We also have an Anatomy section, but it could use some love.

If anyone would like an account on the wiki, just let me know, happy to oblige. :khasmo:
