I found this stock photo website that has lots of photo reference for artists.
its http://www.3d.sk/. You have to subscribe and pay monthly fees.

I was wondering if anyone had used it before and if its any good.

I heard of it, female-anatomy-for-artist.com as well. It's an excellent concept for a website but you have to pay to get the images in good resolution :( I tried right clicking and saving the image but they put text across the photo plus the resolution doesnt come out that good.

It's used a lot in the 3d industry to get skin textures and reference for 3d models as a lot of the shots are front/side and hi-res (ie: not much dynamic posing and a lot of static T-poses). I don't think it's worth subscribing for artists - there's plenty of free stock photos out there if you look.

Yes, I thought the fee was a bit much.
Thanks for the feedback guys.

Much better resource is deviantart. I browse artistic nude and ask the people if they'd want to try some poses for me. Alot of them are quite eager to do it for you especially since it would be drawn.
