I'm not sure what you mean.

Just because a pose is common in EAH doesn't mean we permit the tracing and copying of it to posted to our site. E.g., if you want to learn how to draw hands on hips, you're free to trace Faybelle's art to see how EAH has done it. We just don't permit it to be posted here. We would encourage you to do that along side looking and drawing from lots of references of hands on hips, until you are able to come up with a pose yourself and transport it into EAH's style.

Equally, you are free to reference from things that are made to be resourced or are free to be resourced. I'm sure one of your friends has a photo of them standing with a hand on their hip, e.g. You aren't going to be told off for referencing it. If you did use a photo, you would have to understand anatomy and stylise as you went to make it work in your style, which makes it an artistically helpful practice. Directly copying or tracing from EAH in EAHs style isn't, you don't learn anything from it except how to repeat that pose in that style.

Practice makes perfect, drawing something lots of times from different angles and situations is the way we learn to draw something.

If you want resources irt any of this then I am happy to provide, I'd love to help you out. We want this site to be a place where creativity and art can thrive in a healthy way with artistic ingretity, which is why tracing and blatant copying isn't permitted here.

TL;DR: Of course you are free to draw OC's with their hands on their hips. However, you aren't free to post traced art or art directly copied from an EAH source to the site. It isn't artistically helpful, if your goal is learning how to draw.

I hope that clears things up? Please let me know if it doesn't, I was a little lost irt what you meant.
