Line of Action is really useful. If you like this site, Quickposes (https://quickposes.com/en) is similar. I used that before I knew of Line of Action.
Yes, the kaas-käse is indeed close. :) In my local dialect, our word for ‘kaas’ even sounds like the German word, but without the ‘e’ at the end. :) It’s fun that learning one language can also help you understand another one a bit. Someone told me that the more Spanish I’ll know, the more I will also be able to understand Portuguese.
Just don't get a fancy sketchbook because that fear of messing up the first page of something that's too pretty is real!
That’s a good tip :) I also always feel a bit insecure working in a nice sketchbook. I’m thinking of doing the loose sketches in a Canson Croquis XL ringed sketchbook. I’ve used them before; they have pretty large sizes, and while the paper is thin, it’s nice to work on with pencils. The paper has a yellow tint. And I don’t find them intimidating :)
