User Reviews and Ratings
★★★★★Amazing!!
Love it!! Helps tremendously!!
★★★★☆Holding hands
This is my go to reference for hands. The only ask I have is for option for both hands in a pose.
★★★★★Wonderful app!
I was introduced this app by my partner and have used it for just about every drawing since then. I haven’t seen anything even come close to the level of customization this app has, definitely my all time favorite reference tool!
My only complaint would be with posing, I had an issue today manipulating a skull on top of the mannequin head where I couldn’t anchor the skull down to be center aligned. This is really a small issue in the grand scheme of things and it definitely wont revoke any point
★★★★☆Necessary tool for artists!!
This app is an absolute dream for referencing, especially for artist like me who like to do dynamic hand gestures and interesting lighting. The only minor negative i’ve had is that sometimes the controls for moving around the objects can be finicky, especially if i’m trying to place multiple objects in one scene. However I do still think that this is definitely one of the best free tools for artists on the app store!!
