Easy Pose is a human body pose app for people who draw or is learning to draw. Have you ever wanted a personalized model to show various poses while drawing animation, illustration or sketching? Easy Pose was developed for these people. Various angles of different poses can be inspected. Now you do not have to draw with a wooden joint doll or figure as a model. Even yoga or exercise poses can be checked from various angles. 1. Sensitive Operation – Easy Pose allows control over the main joints in an amazingly smooth manner. It provides multiple functions previously unavailable in other pose apps such as a highlight on movable parts, initialization of joints and manipulation state, and finding a symmetrical pose with the mirroring function. Experience controls that are more convenient than with a mouse. 2. Comic Style Models – Previous pose apps had many realistic eight-head ratio men and women, making it unsuitable for animation, webtoon or game illustrations. Easy Pose is prepared with models with various body types. 3. Multi-Model Control – A scene can be made with a made with a maximum of 6 people at once! It is now possible to make a scene of a soccer player avoiding a tackle or a couple holding hands and dancing. 4. Tens of poses that have already been completed. Poses that are used often are already made. About 60 poses have been prepared and these poses will be regularly updated. 5. Other Characteristics - Sensitive light expression using direct and backlight settings - Able to observe various poses at various angles - Realistic shadows such as shadows of models being cast over other models - Able to change the angle of view (possible to use an exaggerated vanishing point such as a panorama) - Provides a wire mode that allows lines drawn over models - Able to download models without the background in a PNG clear background. - Automatic saving, making it safe whenever there is a device error. - Able to easily control hand movements. 6. Functions Provided in the Free Version - Model poses can be freely controlled. - Moods can be freely controlled by controlling the light angle. - Able to save the image in PNG. Use it when using Easy Pose with another program to draw! - A scene can be made by freely controlling the camera distance 7.

"Tracing Mat" is an app for using your iPad or iPhone as a light table. After displaying the image you want to copy on the app, place the copy destination paper on it and trace the image that can be seen through under the paper. It is also possible to prepare the manuscript on paper, stack the copy destination paper on it, place it on the screen, and illuminate it from below with this application. [How to use] Tap the “gear” button on the upper right to enter the setting mode. In the setting mode, add the image to be displayed with the “+” button or "Camera" button at the bottom left. You can also add text using the "T" button. Tapping a displayed image or text highlights it with a yellow frame; in this state, you can move it by dragging, or zoom in and out using a pinch gesture. Images and text can also be flipped or rotated, while text can be edited or have its styling modified. You can save the current image and text layout with the “Save” button, and restore the saved layout later with the “Load” button, even after restarting the app. The screen brightness can be adjusted with the slider bar at the bottom right. When you tap the “left arrow” button on the upper left to exit the setting mode, the displayed image and text will be fixed, so place a piece of paper on the screen and trace it. [Caution] - I think it is easier to see the image under the paper if the room is darkened a little. - Attach a protective film, etc., to prevent the display from being scratched during copying. - Please use this application at your own risk. We do not take any responsibility for the disadvantage caused by using this application.

Verdict

The call
