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.

Vereinfacht das Leben eines bildenden Künstlers

Früher hab ich oft diverse Internetseiten nach guten Referenzen durchforstet. Ganz besonders weit vorn war Pinterest mit seinen vielen Bildern über den menschlichen Kopf. Ich habe bisher davon abgesehen, mir eine physische Nachbildung eines Schädels zu kaufen.

Auf der Suche nach hilfreichen Tools bin ich dann auf diese App gestoßen und habe mir kurzerhand die lebenslange Version für 35€ gekauft.

Für mich vereinfacht diese App mein Leben als bildender Künstler. Die App hat ein gutes Maß zwischen Funktionen und UX gefunden. Ich fühle mich nicht erschlagen von den Möglichkeiten, aber es sind auch nicht wenige so dass ich sage müsste: „Schade, jetzt benötige ich noch eine andere App zum Lernen, damit sie die Schwächen ausgleicht“. Das ist nicht der Fall und ich bin sehr froh, wie man verschiedenen Varianten des menschlichen Kopfes (auch mit seinen Einzelbestandteilen wie Lippen, Augen, Nase etc) erstellen kann.

Die verschiedenen Grade der Komplexität erleichtern mir das Erlernen, denn so kann ich mich von einfachen Formen bis hin zu komplexen Gebilden wie dem menschlichen Schädel hocharbeiten und kann es in meinem Tempo nachvollziehen.

Ich bin sehr dankbar für diese App und würde dem Entwickler auch zutrauen, den gesamten menschlichen Körper in eine App zu packen.

Vielen Dank für die wirklich gute Arbeit, die hier drin steckt.

Developer Response ,

Vielen Dank für die Bewertung, ich bin froh zu hören, dass die Anwendung nützlich ist.

Der Rest des Körpers wird aufgrund der Größe der Modelle in einer neuen Anwendung enthalten sein.

Zögern Sie nicht, mich zu kontaktieren, wenn Sie irgendwelche Vorschläge haben.

Ich danke Ihnen.

Terrific app!

This app is absolutely indispensable for anyone seriously into portraits!
I‘ve now bought the premium version and I‘m delighted with the possibilities it offers!!
I use this app not only for drawing, but also when I have to bridge the time. Commuting by bus, for example, gives me a great opportunity to play around with different angles and light sources and study perspectives and values intensely.
All in all a very cleverly devised app and massively helpful!
Thanks so much!!

A few minor problems but app is awesome/helpful

There seem to be shading errors when loomis head is active. The shading errors occur on side edges on top of the head. Also I wish the environment lighting intensity settings would be more granular. I missing a step between no environment light and just very little so I can barely see the forms. Other than that the app is very good and I can recommend it.

Hi sniessel,

Thanks for the feedback!

> There seem to be shading errors when loomis head is active.
3D engines do not like low polys using quads instead of triangles. It is hard to get the right balance of keeping the Loomis model accurate while making it compatible in the game engine. I'll keep working on it.

> Also I wish the environment lighting intensity settings would be more granular.
No problem, I'll make sure to add a new lower step for the environment lighting for the next update.

Thanks a lot for using the app!
Wes.
