## What is Zolly?

If you want to learn perspective drawing and you’re willing to break some rules, then you need to check out ZOLLY!
One of the most effective ways to draw with dynamic perspective is to play with its extremes… close and far contrasts can make your images exciting. The main purpose of this app is to heighten your awareness that position and proximity makes all the difference in how objects appear.


Zolly Key Features:
View tons of ready-made models to tackle both basic and advanced perspective challenges.
Take total control of the camera to get the exact view and perspective distortion you’re looking for.
Use grid lines, ground planes, and low-poly models to help you understand perspective.
Primitive models that ease you into more complex forms, with edges and lines that can be turned on and off to better understand the underlying perspective.
A perfect tool to go with the Proko Perspective course.

Why ZOLLY?
There's a technique in film called a Dolly Zoom (ZOLLY) where you can zoom in while moving the camera back which keeps an object the same size. It’s a trip and it's been used in movies like Jaws and Vertigo to make iconic moments. This app also allows you to play with the same mind-bending effect to see how position and proximity change everything! And the fun part? You can even experiment with other viewpoints and effects that you couldn’t pull off with a physical camera using ZOLLY.
Zolly was designed to help you practice various forms in perspective, from simple and advanced primitive shapes, to more complex objects like vehicles and buildings. Draw from orthographic view, to extreme views, to anything in between. Manipulate forms in space with surprising viewpoints through a virtual camera, to expand your imagination, and prompt you to use perspective daringly as you play with form and space in your drawings.The goal for many artists is to push past the predictable and into the impossible. Stretch space. Stretch your mind. And yeah, stretch your art with ZOLLY.

### 5/5 — **EDITED** It finally cracked the code in my brain. 🧠

*2025-07-25*

Update: Alrighty so I’ve been using this now everyday fir a few days and I really wish the horizon line and vanishing points were easier to see 😭😭 maybe it’s just me or idk how to change the background color but so far that’s really the only real gripe I have! Still 5 stars!!!! 





OG review: Okay, so Proko is undoubtably the best out there when it comes to learning art, so when I saw the youtube video announcing this app I immediately downloaded it (I don’t even think I waited till the end of the video 🤣). Anyways! Even with just the free stuff, this totally left me speechless with how suddenly concepts in perspective started to click for me. I just sketched a room setup for an architecture class for the first time in under 15 minutes without crying. Still can’t believe I drew it! Zolly is like a gym for your brain if you want perspective exercises. I totally feel smarter after using it to draw. Needless to say, I picked up some expansion packs since I want to support Proko in any way I can. To be honest, this totally feels like it shouldn’t be free. Stellar app, please keep it going and add way more models!! I was thinking an Asaro or Loomis model, maybe even hands? Not sure if that’s a direction the team wants to go in, but right now for me it’s perfect as it is. New stuff is just icing on the cake!

### 5/5 — Way worthy

*2025-04-01*

This app is very worthy of downloading even the free stuff looks marvelous and can help you with your art. I’ve been using it for like eight minutes and already it’s just like it probably explored all the features but they’re simple and like the models are just beautiful.

### 5/5 — Works well but needs more Zoom

*2025-03-22*

This is a fun and useful app and the add-on libraries are quite reasonable.
It works well but it would be nice to be able to zoom in closer. Specifically, when I have the Zolly setting fairly high, many of the objects get quite small on the screen even zoomed in as much as it allows; being able to zoom in further would make it much more useful.

### 5/5 — Mercant vessel

*2025-02-13, version 1.0*

Great app, I will buy if you add panamax and handy size vessel to vehicle section. Because I need underwater view of a ship.

### 5/5 — Great tool to learn perspective!

*2025-02-12*

I have been recommending this app like crazy. It would be better if you could add functions as duplicating objects and rotating them. Also, could you please release a version for iPad? I tried to use it as is but you can’t see half of the menu.

### 5/5 — Großartig!

*2025-01-29*

Bisher habe ich Blender benutzt, um mir 3D Objekte besser vorstellen zu können. Ich hab mir Zolly gerade runtergeladen und angesehen und es scheint alle Funktionen zu haben die ich brauche, nur eben viel schneller und unkomplizierter als in Blender. Mehr Zeit und Gehirnkapazität zum Zeichnen.
So, jetzt wird weiter geübt.

Love it!

### 5/5 — Just what I needed!

*2025-01-29*

I’m new to drawing and have understood the importance of learning the basic shapes in perspective pointing at diferente directions. I was about to buy a set of 3D shapes, but this is way better.

At the moment the app is not perfect, but I’m sure it will keep getting better. It’s perfect for my current need.

Thanks Proko!

### 5/5 — Awesome tool for artists!

*2025-01-29*

This is a super handy tool for artists! It answered 15 questions I had about perspective in the first 5 minutes of playing with it. Awesome app!

### 5/5 — A handy little art app

*2025-01-28*

This is a nice perspective tool for artists like me who really struggle big time with perspective. I also like that it's free and I can choose which model packs I want to buy. 

My only critique is it would be nice to see more models and maybe add multiple models to a scene but beyond that I'm really happy with this thing.
