Well there's the grid system, color checkers, using a projector, tracing over 3d models, photo bashing, stealing textures from photos, using real photos with filters for backgrounds. you can use maquettes or figures to figure pose and lighting, that weird mirror system Vermeer used. steal from 3 sources so its harder to tell its copied. Call blatant copies Homages. Use blur, depth of field, chromatic aberration and lens flares to trick the viewer into thinking its more dramatic and difficult... Oh and don't set the point of view at eye level.
