Sketch human figures with ease

Pose 3D drawing figures in detail, from the head and face to the fingertips and toes and use it as a reference for your artwork. From our head model that allows for fine-tuning facial parts to our hand scanner that mimics intricate hand poses, drawing hands and faces has never been easier.

Paint on 3D objects

Draw guidelines or patterns on 3D drawing figure or 3D primitives. Check how they appear at different angles or poses.

Easily create dynamic compositions

Is accurate perspective too mundane for the shot you have in mind? Use the manga perspective function to add dynamic exaggerations to your character.

AI posing from photographs

Select a photo, and let Clip Studio Paint’s AI-based deep learning algorithms automatically duplicate the pose with a 3D drawing figure.

Create spaces with 3D references

Use 3D references for accurate compositions. Import your own 3D models, or download architecture, furniture, humans, vehicles, and more to create a wide variety of scenes.

Use multiple 3D models to create a scene

Create complex scenes with multiple 3D figures and objects. Change the camera angle to get different angle references. Control the light source and check where the shadows fall on the ground and other objects.

View 3D materials from all angles at once

When placing a 3D material, you can view from four angles simultaneously. You can also change the position of the camera and the focal point on the 3D layer. When you change the camera position from the All sides view palette, the model also adjusts on the canvas.
