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.

Ratings and Reviews
Just What I Need.
I’ve only had this app for only a short amount of time and I have to say I am very much impressed with the software, it feels clean, it’s smooth and it overall has a professional look.
Though you are very limited to the amount of models that you can use for the free version, it does the job for me as an Artist.
There is an option of buying a one year subscription or a lifetime subscription (both of which are a one time purchase.)
I only give this four stars as I only have one suggestion to the developer, perhaps offering a short trial for this app would be a great choice so as people can test the full capabilities of this app without basing their opinions on just the very very limited models.
Still this is a great app and I heavily recommend. Thank you developers, you’ve made a wonderful app :)
Developer Response ,
Hi,
Thanks a lot for taking the time to write a thoughtful review. I am glad to hear that you've found the app useful.
I will look into the feasibility of adding a free trial.
Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any question.
Thank you!
80% Locked behind a pay-wall
It's a great app, don't get me wrong, but there's no real Loomis model in the free version and to have so much of the basic functionality locked behind a very expensive pay-wall seems dishonest. Currently it charges £9 for a years usage (not value for money in this context and the mist sensible option for anyone considering a purchase is to pay a massive £25 to for a "lifetime" (of the app) license. It's brilliantly designed and written, and not by some huge evil dirty corporation either. However, there needs to be a proper Loomis model in the free stage (there isn't one) to mitigate the pricing issue and the addition of a £2.50 tier, to unlock the real Loomis head, would really help.
Just the job
I wanted to make my own osaris clay head. Just what I needed.
