Posemaniacs - 3D nude models viewable in several hundred poses, rotatable so you can view them 360 degrees. The models were rendered without skin so you can see the muscles.
Female Anatomy for Artists - NSFW - large gallery of photos of women, intended for use as references for artists. The majority of them are nude, so be careful where you access this one. The site is searchable by things like age and race as well as pose type. Pictures are small unless you pay them money, but the gallery is huge.
Fashion-Era - a site on historic western/European clothing, with both information and pictures.
Other Useful Stuff
Photographic height/weight chart - real pictures of real people.
CG Textures - nice big texture gallery.
Random Art Prompt Generator - if you're desperate for ideas
Color Lovers - follows current color trends
DaFont - whole bunch of downloadable fonts
Rydia.net - a webhost for artists that I've heard good things about. I intend to switch to them once I can afford the $5 a month it costs.
