8 Reasons PoseMyArt is the Best Posing Software on the Market
There are a lot of poser software options available on the market, but they are not made from the same material. A good posing software provides a basic figure for reference. A great one, however, offers advanced tools and huge libraries for a faster, professional workflow.
With this in mind I’ve developed PoseMyArt, to provide artists with the tools they need to achieve their goals.
Let’s go over 8 reasons why PoseMyArt is the best posing software in the market.
Before we start, the reason PoseMyArt is the best posing software available today is that we listen to feedback from artists all the time, so if you have any feedback please contact us.
Okay, let’s do this!
1. Works on everything
One key differentiator of PoseMyArt from other posing software is that it works on everything!
We really took the time to improve the experience on every device (mobile, tablet, desktop) that is available, no matter how small the screen PoseMyArt will work. (Although it’s always nicer to work with bigger screen when working with posing tools).
2. The Amazing Premade Scenes Library
No matter what posing software you’re using, posing the figures takes a lot of time and effort.
Seeing this problem, we have created an amazing library of over 4800+ scenes to save artists time so they can focus on their art.
I haven’t seen any posing software with a library as big and with the same quality as ours.
Don’t have a scene idea in your mind? Scroll the library in the app to find inspiration, load the scene and adjust it to your liking.
You can also have a look at the pose reference library at the site, if you find it easier to look there instead of in the app. In my opinion, it’s much more comfortable to use it in the app.
Open scenes from the library in PoseMyArt to see the scene in different angles, adjust the light and edit the scene to your liking. This feature is such an invaluable resource for artists, a total time saver.
You can also practice drawing poses from our library with our quick poses tool. This is a nice and quick way to practice gesture drawing and master capturing the essence of a pose.
3. The Premade Poses Library and Animations Library
Another way to improve your workflow is to use our premade poses and animations library.
As I said earlier, posing takes time and this is a quick way to get the pose you need for your reference (or least a rough outline of the pose you want that you can adjust)
We also have our library of 2400+ motion captured animations where you can stop the animations on any frame to find a natural and dynamic poses.
Posing the models can take a lot of time and eventually could look unnatural so stopping a motion captured animation on a frame will result in a natural pose by definition.
4. PoseMyArt’s Amazing Model Quality and Realism
The quality of your pose reference will affect the quality of your drawings. For that reason we refined the models in PoseMyArt to be high quality models.
We actively listen to model requests from our users, for that reason our models quality is better than any other app.
Our models are ranging from realistic, anime, animals, stylized to basic shapes. We offer a bigger variety of models in our free tier than any other app I know of.
If you’re working on understanding the underlying shapes of a pose, you can use our basic shape models to show the 3 major shapes of the body (hip, torso and head).
Found a pose you like but you want to change the models? Use our change model feature to quickly find a model that fits the reference you need. (It’s also a quick way to see the major shapes if you change to our basic shapes models)
I haven’t seen on any other posing software basic shapes models like ours and users of PoseMyArt really love it.
We continue to add models all the time. missing a model in the app? contact us and we will see if we can add the model for you.
5. The Big Props Library
Our props library has a wide variety of props, so you can create better reference for your drawings.
Our props library is easily available in the all, you can scroll and see the images before you add them to the scene, to save time.
Like I said earlier, the quality of your reference sill affect your drawings, so having a props library with a wide range can add a lot to your drawings.
This is also a great way to provide backgrounds for your drawings. PoseMyArt’s users tell me they were wasting a lot of time searching for backgrounds to their scenes before they found PoseMyArt.
We continue to add props all the time, so if you have a prop request in mind, be sure to contact us.
6. Our Hand Poses Library
Save even more time by using our hand poses library instead of posing manually the hand pose you’re looking for.
You can quickly scroll the hand poses library images to find the hand pose you’re looking for.
Even if the hand pose you’re looking for is not there, you’ll probably find a hand pose which is 90% what you were looking for and you can adjust it to your needs.
7. Easy to use and Intuitive Interface
You can use Inverse Kinematics (drag the limbs) and Forward Kinematics (rotate the bones) with PoseMyArt giving you full control over the pose.
Most posing apps don’t give you both options (Inverse and forward kinematics) which can limit the control of the model poses and cost you more time creating the poses.
We are always talking to our users to see where we can improve, I designed PoseMyArt to be as simple and intuitive as I can.
Drag the gray boxes to use inverse kinematics and click the rotation spheres to use forward kinematics. Learn more on how to use PoseMyArt on our Ultimate PoseMyArt Toolkit blog post.
We also added a quick cycle between the posing modes (rotate, move, scale), by clicking on the model multiple times, for better and quicker workflow.
8. Advanced Features
PoseMyArt differentiates itself from other posing software by providing advanced features for better professional workflows.
Some of the features advanced features PoseMyArt provides are:
- Saving Camera Positions - Great for comics and camera creators who need to see their scenes from different angles. This is also a great feature for storyboarding.
- Change Model Feature
- More Realistic Models
- Animations Library
- Premade Scene Library
- Advanced Export Options
- Quickly Copy and Pasting Poses (While both can save custom poses)
- Basic Shapes Models (To understand the figures better)
- Huge Props Library
There are a lot more features to add to this list, but I think this list already shows why PoseMyArt is the best posing software available in the market.
A lot of manga, comics and users who use PoseMyArt to storyboard have said that the save camera positions feature is a crazy time saver for their work.
Final thoughts
I might be biased since I’m the creator of PoseMyArt, but if you read the reasons I’ve stated above I think that you’ll also find that PoseMyArt is the best posing software available in the market.
I think you should give the app a try to see for yourself. You shouldn’t just believe what I say - try it yourself.
Don’t have time to check out the app? You can take a quick look at our features page to see the features without opening the app.
I hope PoseMyArt will help you in your art journey! Roy (:
