Throwing another one out to the flist.
Argh. Okay, this has been frustrating me for over a week now. For the "fun" project that I'm doing with my Japanese students this fall, we're going to design superheroes! And my kids will have to describe their superhero's origins and powers in English. Which means that they will be learning all sorts of completely USELESS but AWESOME English vocabulary words like "pyrokinesis" and "radioactive." Okay, maybe not so useless. Anyway. My kids are really excited about this project, but I have a problem.
I want them to design a costume for their suphero. And to that end, I'm trying to make a worksheet that would contain two outlines of the human form - one male and one female - that they could draw on top of. And here's the problem. I can't FIND a decent outline of the human form. I've tried searching everywhere online. I've browsed about a million pixel doll bases (either too super-deformed or too posed, while I'm looking for just a standing figure), how-to-draw websites, anatomy books, fashion templates, printable paper doll templates, everything. And I just. can't. find. a pair of simple human outlines.
Now, I'm not an art person, so maybe I'm looking in all the wrong places. Flist, help? If I can't find a decent human outline, I'm going to have to make due with crude figures that I attempted to trace from an anatomy textbook. I already tried scanning my tracings into my computer and touching them up in PaintShop, but they still look like crap. I really would like to give my kids something better.
ETA: I love you guys. THANK YOU!!!!!!

and not overly sexist. I could try to look for them when I get home from work and scan them if they're any good.no subject

Print large and trace the outline? :O
Worse comes to worst and you can't find anything, I'm willing to pop out a few outlines for you. (Being as I'm in the middle of an anatomy practice blitz.)

go there, then right click on the characters and choose Zoom in a couple times, THEN screen cap it. Voila, c'est magnifique!
