I've been resource gathering for YEARS so now I am going to share my dragons hoard
Floorplanner. Design and furnish a house for you to use for having a consistent background in your comic or anything! Free, you need an account, easy to use, and you can save multiple houses.
Comparing Heights. Input the heights of characters to see what the different is between them. Great for keeping consistency. Free.
Magma. Draw online with friends in real time. Great for practice or hanging out. Free, paid plan available, account preferred.
Smithsonian Open Access. Loads of free images. Free.
SketchDaily. Lots of pose references, massive library, is set on a timer so you can practice quick figure drawing. Free.
SculptGL. A sculpting tool which I am yet to master, but you should be able to make whatever 3d object you like with it. free.
Pexels. Free stock images. And the search engine is actually pretty good at pulling up what you want.
Figurosity. Great pose references, diverse body types, lots of "how to draw" videos directly on the site, the models are 3d and you can rotate the angle, but you can't make custom poses or edit body proportions. Free, account option, paid plans available.
Line of Action. More drawing references, this one also has a focus on expressions, hands/feet, animals, landscapes. Free.
Animal Photo. You pose a 3d skull model and select an animal species, and they give you a bunch of photo references for that animal at that angle. Super handy. Free.
Height Weight Chart. You ever see an OC listed as having a certain weight but then they look Wildly different than the number suggests? Well here's a site to avoid that! It shows real people at different weights and heights to give you a better idea of what these abstract numbers all look like. Free to use.

Here are a list of programs I use frequently to make my digital comic making experience easier!
Bulk Rename Utility [Free] https://www.bulkrenameutility.co.uk/ I deal with tons of files on the regular and this program lets me rename and relabel them very easily.
Lazy Nezumi [$30] https://lazynezumi.com/ A line smoothing program that works with nearly every piece of decent art software. It also has built in rulers, fractals, and scripts. If you are a professional illustrator of any kind, this is a must.
One Note [Free] https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/onenote/digital-note-taking-app I use this in a lot of my writing and research. It’s just a good baseline program that lets you drop in images, quotes, and text.
DesignDoll [Free] https://terawell.net/index.php?anchor=download 3D humanoid rigs that are great for poses. It has a fairly comprehensive catalog of body types but you’ll still want to depend on your own design sheets and artistic prowess to keep your characters on model.
SketchUp [Free] https://www.sketchup.com/ A 3D modeling software that is good for sets, buildings, props, and other inorganic shapes. I use it for reference and scene set up all the time.
Sculptris aka ZBrushCoreMini [Free] https://www.maxon.net/en/zbrushcoremini This is the 3D modeling software I use to sculpt organic parts like horns, faces, wings, claws etc. * Note: This is not a sponsered post, just a list of software I use.
