If you're an artist and ever wanted just quick and easy drawing reference for hands, heads, or even feet* without having to awkwardly pose your limbs in front of a mirror, this app is for you! HANDY® is an artist's reference tool, consisting of several rotatable 3D limbs with a variety of poses useful for drawing. You can also customize and edit your own poses for hands, feet, and skulls. Fully adjustable 3-point lighting means you can get easy lighting reference when using any of the 10+ included 3D head busts. Handy if you’re painting and need to know what shadows the head casts from a certain angle! Also available is the Animal Skulls pack*. With over 10 different animal species, it's great for anatomical reference or creature design inspiration. [*Foot rigs and Animal Skull pack require additional purchase] NEW in Handy v5: Edit the materials of models! Selectively turn off their textures, adjust their specularity, or tint them a certain color. Perfect for comic book artists, painters, or just casual sketchers! Featured in ImagineFX's Top 10 Must-Have Apps!

折角DLC(動物の頭蓋骨)を購入したのに色がバグで全てマゼンタ(マテリアルバク?)になる せめて影が分かればいいがベタ塗りになってしまっていて前後関係もわからない 以前はなっていなかったはずなのでアップデートの影響の可能性がある

esta app es pura basura, esta es una de las peores aplicaciones de poses que e usado, primero que nada tiene muy pocos modelos, hay otras apps con decenas y gratis, segundo hay que pagar aún más por los pocos modelos que hay, tercero las opciones de configuración son muy pobres, y deficientes y cuarto y por la cual pedí mi reembolso es que no se guarda nada si abres otra pestaña y se buguea la app, y no deja seleccionar por ejemplo el tono de piel blanco, al agregar una mano, una porquería.

Its a great idea and a good app. I appreciate the simplicity. The only thing that it is missing that would make it 50% more useful is if the models cast shadows on to surfaces. As is, the shadows are restricted to being only on the models.

it's pretty decent. moving the camera around can get a little confusing on occasion but it makes a good reference.

今まで手を描くのが苦手で避けていたし、イメージだけで描くと何度も何度も描き直して無駄に時間がかかっていたのですが、こちらを買ってから一発で済むようになってどんなポーズも怖くなくなりました。 イラストソフトの3Dモデルも使ってはみたものの、筋や骨の出っ張りなどのこだわりたい部分がわからなかったので、リアルな造形のこのアプリが大変役立っています。 絵師さん必須のアプリだと思います。

描きたいアングルの絵に近いのがほぼ見つかる。でも欲を言うと、もう少しポーズを増やしてほしい。けどおおむね満足です。

pretty useful once you figure it out! the controls are a bit annoying but that's unavoidable on mobile. still, really helpful for all the lighting effects as well
