Build the drawing reference you need. Pose characters, compose scenes, and explore
perspective and lighting for illustrations, manga, and comics.
Draw what you imagine, with a reference you can shape.
Pofi Create helps illustrators, comic artists and drawing enthusiasts build the 3D references their artwork needs. Start with a character, a pose or a ready-made scene. Arrange your subjects, find the camera angle and explore the light, so the picture in your head becomes easier to study and draw.
Pose it. Frame it. Light it. Draw it.
• FIND THE PIECES FOR YOUR NEXT DRAWING
Build a scene with characters, animals, props and environments. Explore separate hands and feet, heads and art-study models, plus effects and alternate appearances. A growing collection of over 100,000 resources gives you starting points for solo poses, groups, interactions and hands holding props.
Library expansions include 24 added model categories and 32 motion series. Supported models have built-in poses, expressions and appearance options; structural guides help you understand form.
• SHAPE THE POSE YOU NEED
Start with standing, sitting, running or action poses, then refine supported models. Around 80 preset hand poses help you study difficult fingers and grips without starting from scratch. Advanced controls offer up to 150 controllable joints on supported character rigs, detailed hand and toe adjustment, and over 100 facial parameters on selected characters. IK moves connected limbs from a target; FK turns individual joints. Body flexibility, joint limits and IK blending help with finer adjustments. Driver sliders change supported props and effects. Available controls vary by resource.
• START WITH A COMPLETE SCENE
Scene templates bring models, composition, cameras and lighting together, so you can study how the whole picture works.
Static: open a ready-made composition with poses and light.
Motion: play or pause existing animations to study body movement, camera changes and lighting.
Annotated: use notes and dedicated views to understand structure and details.
Interactive: tap to switch poses, scenes and existing animations.
With Pro, adjust and save your own reference scenes for later drawings.
• SEE THE ANGLE BEFORE YOU DRAW
Explore standard, wide-angle and fisheye lenses to plan perspective and distortion. Choose a solid background, an HDR sky or your own image. Depth of field helps you preview foreground and background blur, making spatial relationships easier to study.
• SEE HOW LIGHT SHAPES THE FORM
Try studio lighting presets, use an HDR environment, or adjust three directional lights independently. Change direction, color and shadows for key, fill and rim lighting. Compare how different setups reveal a face, a pose or a prop before you paint the shadows.
• BUILT FOR YOUR DRAWING WORKFLOW
Use Pofi Create for illustration, manga, comics, figure drawing and storyboard planning. Existing motion scenes also help with animation studies; portrait poses, staging, clothing and accessories provide references for photography and fashion.
A new 3D engine and streamlined controls support detailed observation. Cloud saving and sync keep saved work available on supported devices and platforms. The Pofi series has over 10 million combined installs across all platforms.
Export JPG or transparent PNG snapshots to use alongside your drawing app.
• RESOURCES AND FEATURES ARE SEPARATE
Free to download, with some free resources. Buy individual resources with P-coins for permanent access; they remain available after Pro expires. Advanced controls, lighting and custom-scene saving require Pro.
Ultra provides access to all resources without individual P-coin purchases. Check the purchase page for pricing, duration, included features and renewal terms. Ultra access differs from permanently purchasing each resource.

I have tried EVERY pose app on the AppStore, along with purchasing memberships for them. They do not compare to the functionality and quality of this app. I’m very happy to see that the app is starting to get frequently updated now! Poses and models are coming back, and it looks like we are getting a lot more variety of models then before!! I’m very excited for more things to be added!

Was doing good up until a few days ago + edit and alternative recommendations
The_Tvhead
Edit: it has been over a month since the original review, and it still has not been fixed. An email had been sent the same day this review had been made (August 14th 2025) yet never received a response. It still says in app that i do not have an active subscription, while in my subscriptions itself it says i have the subscription. I unfortunately because of this, had to move to a new model app. So here is my recommendations. If you want something similar to Pofi Create body-wise, my main suggestion is Clip Studio Paint, it offers 3d models of a wide and customizable variety from what i can tell from the few times i’ve used it. If you don’t have the money to spend on it, then the free option is Poseit, it is mostly free, with a one time subscription to unlock a few things such as semi-customizable models.—I’ve used this app for a year now, and it has helped me a lot. But starting last week i’ve began to have issues with it. For a whole week it would not let me into the app at all, saying that the “Network seems to be down, please check the network settings and refresh again.”. That had been all week until today, when it finally let me in again. upon logging back in, it said my subscription was no longer active, and that it had expired July 30th. i attempted to buy the subscription again, just for it to say “Invalid order, please contact costumer service.”. it did this several times before i decided to uninstall to see if that would fix it. when i uninstalled it, i got a popup that i had a subscription, and that if i didn’t unsubscribe, it would renew on August 14th 2026, so i kept the subscription and reinstalled it again. It is still saying i do not have a subscription in the app itself, and i am at a loss of what to do.
Pro License and V3.0 Issue
misatofu
I purchased a pro license to access the BJD models and pose library. They only let you buy annual membership and I bought it on September 10. Then, they rolled out the new update today (1 month after my purchase) and moved all of the pro license functions to “ultra license” (and made it 60% more expensive). All previous pro license owners got switched to lifetime membership of the updated pro tier which only gets access to the free models plus a few extra features like adjust lighting which is useless. I basically lost 11 months of pro license features that I paid for due to this update. I tried to contact their support email to request a refund but I got a bounce back email saying the address does not exist. I’m hoping I can get a refund through the App Store.
Awful update
Improve it !
The app feels incomplete I understand that it is trying to be fresh but it’s not working. There is currently only a handful of poses and they are all very basic. I did get refunded for the tokens I spent on previous packs but what good is this balance in my account if I can’t even buy any good packs? I loved using this app because even though I was getting ripped off the convenience of having 600 or so poses to pick from in one pack was worth it. Now I have about 80 poses with buying everything…I think it was released too soon because it is definitely not worth any money right now
1. Improved translation issues for certain languages.
