★ ★ ★ Skelly Overview

       

What is Skelly? The Skelly app is a reference skeleton for artists that is fully poseable and anatomically correct. It includes a simplified version of the skeleton called "Robo-Skelly" and is designed to make the study of anatomy easier and more enjoyable for students and professionals. The app allows users to focus on their art and personalize poses without the need for reference material or hiring models.



Software Features and Description

1. Learning the structure of the human body is the skeleton key to drawing the figure in an anatomically correct manner without having to clear your browser history to avoid awkward conversations with your loved ones.

2. They can also be used to inspire poses for drawing, painting, sculpting, illustration, animation, comics, manga, storyboarding, twerking, and to fully understand the anatomy of the human skeleton.

3. "Bend him, twist him, contort him! The Skelly app lets you put a virtual human skeleton into any pose, and to see him from any angle, and in any lighting.

4. It’s a great tool for art students or professionals wondering what the skeleton is really doing beneath a life pose, or for anyone wanting to visualize a pose from scratch.

5. Skelly is a fully poseable, anatomically correct reference skeleton for artists.

6. Whether you want to make works like Michelangelo or Miyazaki, Skelly will help you focus on your art and let you personalize his poses, rather than searching for reference material and hiring models.

7. Learn to draw the skeleton from any angle without the inconvenient and morally questionable need to go grave robbing.

8. The interface is intuitive to learn and easy to use, without sacrificing any of the nuances of the human body’s complex range of movement.

9. These figures were created to make the study of anatomy easier and more enjoyable for students and professionals without leaving your wallets bone dry.

10. A simplified version of the skeleton is also included, named “Robo-Skelly”.

11. I was shocked at how easy it is to pose the figure and direct the light source.

  • A Must-have App for Serious Artists

    By Pedeclaudo (Pcmac user)

    If you're a serious artist, then this app is a no-brainer. I don't mean to put down any other products here, such as the ArtPose apps, but this app delivers a couple of things you just have to appreciate. For one thing, the mechanism for manipulating joints is delightfully easy, with clear handles that let you achieve precise poses quickly. If you want to spend more time drawing than posing your artist model, you can't beat this app. The other thing I love about this app is the fact that the developer deliberately kept the model generic. You get a skeleton and a robo skeleton, and that's it. At first glance, that may not seem like a benefit, but it really is. Without more specific details and even muscle masses, this app forces you to fill in the details from your imagination, so you don't have to actively tune out unwanted elements as you draw. Is there room for improvement? Absolutely. I'd love to see a simple undo function added. If they provided adjustment tools for the hips and ribcage or even just male and female proportions, that would be nice too. And while I appreciate the ability to save poses, The ability to pass poses between devices would be a real benefit to those of us who use both an iPad and an iPhone to illustrate, as you could build a pose on your iPad and then pull it up on your phone to have as a reference while you illustrate. None of these are deal-breakers though.
  • Overall, great!

    By A_potato_ (Pcmac user)

    This app is VERY helpful! I’m impressed with the lighting feature. It definitely beats having to use a very expensive/in proportional mannequin. However, it was mentioned in another review, but it would be nice if: there was a female skeleton, an option to change proportions ( like longer legs), maybe an option to add a wall or floor to make sitting/laying down/ learning against a wall easier, and an easier way to move the hips would be nice, but no major problems at all.
  • It's a great app but could use an update

    By kylekane (Pcmac user)

    For artists, this app is very useful. It's well made, easy to use, and has great models for the simple and detailed skeletons. It could use more frequent updates. I'd like to have the interface sized for different screens. On my iPad Pro, the UI is way too large and gets in the way of the experience. More lighting options would also be useful so you could control multiple lights. It would also be awesome to be able to do short animations using a couple key frames, but that's just a thought for something in the future.
  • Edit Over Pictures?

    By Alex-Rodriguez (Pcmac user)

    I asked the people at 3D 4 M focal if they can make an artist version where they could pose the skeleton and they said they couldn't. A few weeks later I discovered this app and I jumped at the chance to use it. It's a great app with loads of functionality, I would however like a couple of additions to the UI. Is there any chance that we can get an update where we can load an image under this app so that we can pose it more accurately? Like and overlay. Also, can we get individually poseable fingers and toes please?
