PoseDoll vs MotionStage

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.

MotionStage plays MikuMikuDance models and motions on your device — and lets you perform them yourself. Point the front camera at yourself and the model copies how you move, in real time and entirely on device. Record the take and MotionStage writes it out as a standard .vmd motion file you can open in MMD or reload here. MODELS • Load PMX models straight from a .zip — no unpacking first — or from a folder • Archives written on Japanese Windows are read correctly, filenames and all • Keep a library of models and switch between them • Three slots remember a model along with its physics, colour tone and framing • Expression sliders for every morph the author exposed • Customize the bundled mannequin: build, shape, colour, and a number or letters on the chest and back MOTION • Play .vmd motions with a scrubbable timeline • Load a dance's camera .vmd too, and the view follows its shots • Fourteen built-in motions and postures, so there is something to move on day one • Play along to an audio file of your own, with an adjustable offset • Bullet physics for hair, skirts and accessories, at three quality settings • Step whole frames at 30 fps to match MMD exactly, or interpolate for smoothness MIRROR — play it yourself • Drive the model with the front camera — body, arms and head • Or switch to the back camera and film someone else • Move about and the model moves with you • Your face drives the model's own expression morphs • Save a recorded take as a standard .vmd file. • Video never leaves your device VIEW • Toon shading, adjustable colour tone, fill light and shadows, light or dark backdrop • Orbit, pinch and pan; optionally keep the camera on the model • Frame the full body, the upper body or the face • Share a still of any frame, or record the scene as a video with the music and save it to Photos MotionStage comes with a poseable artist's mannequin — and a second one with a face, for expression tracking — so there is something to move the moment you open it. Bring your own PMX models and VMD motions for the rest. "MikuMikuDance" is freeware created by Yu Higuchi.
