Artists love references, even if they are silly! However some people expect you to draw Britney Spears with a bunch of miqo'te ears on it, that goes a bit... too far x_X!
Good luck with your drawing stuff, sounds like an awesome idea to do !
I don't mind people telling me what sort of fatures they resemble. However, by "faceclaim" I always thought it was what it sounded like: Someone claiming a face. With all the features.Â
I don't see "She has lips like Angelina Jolie" as a face claim. I do see "My character has the face of Adriana Lima" as such. Former is okay. Latter is not.
