Turn photos into the 3D poses you want to draw. PoseDoll is an illustration reference app that lets you transfer a person’s pose from a photo or camera shot onto a 3D drawing mannequin. Rotate the 3D mannequin to check angles that may be difficult to understand from a photo alone. PoseDoll helps reduce the time and effort needed to create poses from scratch, making it easier to prepare references for rough sketches, drafts, and composition planning. [What You Can Do with PoseDoll] • Create 3D poses from photos Import a photo from your device and transfer the person’s pose onto a 3D drawing mannequin. • Capture a pose with your camera Take a photo on the spot and use it to create a 3D pose reference. • View poses from any angle Rotate and zoom the 3D mannequin to find the angle you want to draw. • Adjust poses manually Fine-tune automatically generated poses by moving and rotating body parts. • Save your poses Save created poses to your library and return to them later. • Export as transparent PNG Save the 3D mannequin as a transparent PNG and import it into your illustration software for use as a drawing or sketch reference. [Privacy] Pose estimation runs directly on your device. Your photos are not uploaded to external servers for pose estimation. [Ideal For] • Checking a pose from a slightly different angle than the original photo • Avoiding the hassle of posing a 3D mannequin from scratch • Preparing a 3D reference before starting a rough sketch • Checking the balance and angles of a character pose • Turning your own photos into 3D drawing references [Core Features Unlock] Core features can be unlocked with a one-time purchase. There is no monthly subscription. The unlock includes features such as camera capture, photo import, and the pose library. [Please Note] PoseDoll estimates a person’s pose from a photo and applies it to a 3D mannequin. Depending on the image and shooting conditions, the pose may not always be reproduced accurately. Results may be less stable when: • Parts of the body are hidden • The person appears too small in the image • The photo is taken in a dark environment • Multiple people appear in the image • The pose has significant depth toward or away from the camera You can manually adjust the generated pose in the app as needed.
