Anime Bases
(these are not technically a tutorial, but they do help with more unique posing and are free to use as long as credit is given)

You can find a lot more by looking through deviant art in Customization / Digital Dolls / Pixel Art /
or if you think you're ready for a bigger challenge draw from stock photos at Resources and Stock Images / Stock Images / Model

RE: Drawing/Coloring Tutorials - Kain Nobel - 09-17-2011
Hurray, tutorial dumps are always useful! There are some body poses that I'm lame at doing, such as the numerous attempts at drawing a kneeling rifleman, so if you see anything specifically related to that then let me know :D
Somebody I learned alot from is Christopher Hart. His books cover alot of subjects, such as drawing actual human anatomy, comic styles, manga styles, fantasy worlds and the secrets behind drawing animals. You could easily do yourself a major favor by getting a hold of any of his books. To be honest, I've only read a couple, but it appears he's got hundreds of books to blow your mind, and they all look to have 4 to 5 star ratings.
It would be beneficial to update this thread with some animation tutorials later on, I'll let you know if I come across any good ones.
RE: Drawing/Coloring Tutorials - cosmickitty - 09-17-2011
I have a problem with poses too (and hands and feet) so I like to use the various anime bases on deviant art. I think I'm going to add a link to some of them into the tutorial.
btw, for gun bases... I found these two, dont know if they'll help or not
