Description

Draw better portraits with Head Model Studio. Study faces in detail from simple planes to complex geometry. It is the best iOS / iPadOS application to learn and study faces in detail. Take your sketches to the next level.

INSPIRED BY FAMOUS TECHNIQUES
Inspired by master methodologies, Head Model Studio comes with 25 different models, including 2 free. From simple to more detailed models, progress easily by understanding the planes of the face. Expand your practice with 5 classical models.

COMPLETE CONTROL
You have complete control over the 3D models. Zoom, tilt, and rotate to study each part of the model at will.

ENVIRONMENTAL & STUDIO LIGHTING
Realistic environmental lighting based on HDR photos, recreate a sunrise, midday, or sunset illumination. Switch to Studio Lighting to create amazing lighting composition with multiple spotlights and different colors.
Change the lighting to be at any angle or intensity. Perfect to study the planes of the head and understand tones.

CUSTOMISABLE RENDERING
The edge outline highlights the planes for easier practice. Turn it off once comfortable and practice in a more realistic setting. Modify the shininess for a different material rendering.

PRE-MADE PRACTICE
Want to learn to draw but unsure where or how to start? We’ve created a bunch of scenes to get you started.

PRICING
Head Model Studio offers a couple of free models. A premium access is required to access the rest of the models. Lifetime and Yearly (non-recurring) options are available.

Best app of its category

You get what you pay for - this is a very high quality app and a fantastic tool for learning the inns and outs of head anatomy and construction.

Great models and lighting controls, along with customizable expressions.

The developer is very responsive and seems keen on continuing to support and improve this app.

Don’t download this essential scam

They try to charge you for a yearly subscription, and 40 DAMN DOLLARS for access to the whole app permanently. That’s just ridiculous. Almost everything is locked behind a pay wall. Try these apps instead, and they are worth paying for: -art pose pro, art pose, and art pose FE; also Easypose. There are a few other good apps but not so much for mobile. There are many free resources available online like Pinterest, not to mention websites with full models. Don’t support this ridiculous price. I have bought entire games and rendering programs that cost less than this does, if that doesn’t say something I don’t know what does. I’d be embarrassed if I worked on this app and they charged this much.

Developer Response ,

Hello,
Thank you for your review. I am sorry to hear about the disappointment you've experienced.
The yearly access is not a subscription, it is a one off payment, it doesn't renew automatically.
It takes a lot of money, time and people to create an application. We have released new content and features every month for the past 3 years and have a lot more planned. Just like you, we need to feed ourselves and pay the bills, a lifetime of work comes at a cost.
As you can see we have over 3000 reviews and a 4.7 rating worldwide, we try our best to create a valuable software and our users seem to like it.
I wish you all the best and I hope you will understand.

Worth the price

I wasn’t so sure of my purchase one year ago because of one time high price, but it said they will be improving the app which they did and it’s becoming really nice ! 😊 I love the new expression features

Thanks!

Developer Response ,

Thank you for the review! Don't hesitate to let me know what else you would like to see in the app.
