Skelly - Art Model for Positive User Reviews
✓ Awesome appThis is a brilliant app and is already a real time saver for setting up poses. I have always struggled with foreshortening but looks like those days are over. Very much recommend. Jason Crawford.Version: 1.0
✓ Great App!Love this app so far! I wish I could adjust the jaw though, hopefully in a future update..Version: 2.00
✓ Skelly is AWESOMEThis app is just awesome and very thoughtful. I used other medical apps with an unpossable skeleton so the fact that I can pose it is a huge bonus for me. I just have one small issue which might bot be that big a deal. Through my understanding, the clavicle, scapula, and humerus, move together and I was thinking if it could be applied some kind of inverse kinematics solver to the three bones so that it would be easier to articulate corectly. Other than that, very awesome app, and will be in continuous use. Thank you..Version: 2.00
✓ Good for referenceThis app is good for making a quick sketch of the skeleton in a certain position. It helps you get an idea of the structure. The only thing I would recommend is this: hand articulation. At this point, the hand is one unmovable mass, but maybe in the future you could let each finger be oriented. Also, for some reason if I have about 7 or more saved poses, the app starts to slow down. Maybe that's just my phone..Version: 2.00
✓ Must buyThis app is absolutely worth the money it costs to buy it. I can’t tell you how helpful it is to have a fully customisable skeleton at your fingertips..Version: 2.00
✓ Good Start, needs updatesGenerally, this is a nice, easy to use app. I wish there were some feature updates or add-ons, which is weird for me because one of the reasons I like this app is because I don't want to be advertised to. I would definitely throw in an extra buck or two, now that I've used the app for a while to pose the smaller joints in the hands, feet, and jaw. If not that then an option for child, adolescent, or infant skeletons..Version: 2.00
✓ Great app!For the most part this is a great app. Like how you can switch between skeleton and basic shapes and the lighting option is super helpful too. Would be great though if you could move fingers, toes and jaw. Would also be helpful if joints had realistic range of motion instead of all the crazy hyperextention. Would also be cool to see a muscle layer at some stage in the future. Don’t let these minor niggles stop you from purchasing the app. It’s still very good for what it is. Good show, old bean! 🤓.Version: 2.00
✓ Almost perfectThis app is really useful as a reference tool for artists. The main addition that I would love to see is the ability to move the jaw. If they added the ability to pose the jaw and maybe the fingers this app would for sure be 5 stars.Version: 2.00
✓ User friendlySuper helpful and easy to manipulate. My one suggestion would be adding an option to remove bones/parts to isolate a specific view of the skeleton (for example, being able to remove arms for a clearer side view of the spine and rib cage).Version: 2.00
✓ FantasticMy only suggestion would be to make the jaw open and close, but other than that, I really love this app..Version: 2.00
✓ Edit Over Pictures?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 Skelly 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 Skelly so that we can pose it more accurately? Like and overlay. Also, can we get individually poseable fingers and toes please?.Version: 2.00
✓ A must have!Well done to the developers! I’m actually frustrated I didn’t find this sooner! I guess the only thing I could only ask for is maybe to be able to repose the hands/jaw/feet. If not with total free movement (because that would probably be a mess) maybe some presets you can set the hands to, like fists etc. besides that this is my new favorite ref app thank you!!.Version: 2.00
✓ Great app for Strength CoachesThis is an incredibly unique app. I'm the owner of SF Iron and a strength coach who teaches clients how to correctly perform squats, presses, and deadlifts based on efficient biomechanics. I'm able to use this app to form snapshots in a particular movement and show my clients from multiple angles. I would love to see an update sometime that allows for manipulation of limb length to show variations in anthropometry. Short femur vs long femur makes for a VERY different looking squat..Version: 2.00
✓ WowIN LOVEEEEE.Version: 2.00
✓ Amazing !!!I just Love it !!! You can see the skeleton in 360 degree, turn it in the way you want to. Brillant !.Version: 2.00
✓ Good start, waiting on improvementsThe most recent update as addressed my highest priority concerns. Def a much more useful app. Previous- This is a great start. The app LOOKS great. The visuals are top notch. However, for the price point, I want more of the features that come stock with many of the other pose apps I have. Ex: Save pose, Load pose, Ground/Perspective Plane. To name a few. After using the app for a few months the controls can be a little finicky. Starting over when I reopen the app after investing time in a pose is a deal breaker. I am very Pro-Proko; I subscribe to all his content and with the high quality output re: his online videos I was expecting more from his debut app. I'm sure it will be great over time but I find myself using my other pose apps eagerly awaiting updates to this one..Version: 2.00
✓ Superb posing appThe last reviewer thought this app was not worth the price. To put this in perspective, a fiver will alternately buy you one of the rubbish small wooden posing mannequins that sit on your desk! This app gives the choice of posing either a mannequin or an anatomically correct skeleton. You can move each major joint correctly on it's axis and so make the mannequin assume any anatomically correct position as well as a few others as the flexibility of the joints is greater than a humans. I find this useful as I often draw odd postures for alien and fantasy races. The mannequin can be rotated whole along various axes and you can zoom in and out to a limited degree. You can also adjust the direction of the lighting falling on the figure. I don't really use the option but you can change the background colour too. Addressing the other reviewers comments: 1) no you cannot zoom in on the hand and adjust finger by finger. Most of us have a hand to copy though so it's a non-issue for me! 2) no you cannot save the mannequin. But you can of course take a screenshot of your finished pose so again, I'm not sure this is a massive deficit. I'd buy this app again if I lost it irretrievably..Version: 1.01
✓ Good, could be greatThere seems to be a lot of negative feedback regarding this apps usefulness - so let me say that it was exactly what I expected for the price, and while it’s usefulness is limited, I believe the convenience and flexibility (haha) is what warrants the cost. I would like to make a few suggestions; first, the ability to lock the joints. This has been mentioned a few times, and I think it would be handy. Second, the ability to change the FOV of the camera; as it stands you are forced to use one and only one, and it’s not always what you want. Third, an undo button. As a game developer, I have some experience in Unity (the engine this app runs on), and my suggestions should be trivially easy to implement - and because most of the negative reviews focus on the low value of the app, these added functions may be a step in the right direction..Version: 2.00
✓ Mostly what I expectedFor some reason it won’t let me change the hip pose at all, it just rotates the entire picture. It’s the same on my phone and iPad Pro..Version: 2.00
✓ FANTASMIC!!Thank you Proko!! This app is amazing for artists and designers, I have used a few online poseable skeleton programs, and none of those came close to the ease of use and practicality of this app, the UI is so simple and the controls incredibly intuitive (I'm not a particularly tech-savvy person). Best $ I have spent on an app- ever..Version: 2.00
✓ Good but needs improvementShould be able to zoom on each part, hard to get on anything besides that's on the center. A small glossary and being able to see each body part in a separate section would be helpful too.Version: 2.00
✓ Brilliant appAs the title says brilliant app. Normally I am careful about downloading apps with no free version and/or no reviews but as I have been studying from Proko for a while, at first his free YouTube videos and now his premium videos I was sure this would also be top quality. I have not been disappointed. It is easy to use, smooth and intelligent, it allows you to view skeleton or the simple form (robo) and then change light setting, with zoom in and out you can concentrate on as much or as little of the form as you want. If you can't work it out yourself he has a how to video. I first saw Proko use this app in its build stage on one of his videos and asked where/ when I could get it. He let me know it was still in development but would let me know when it was available and today I received the great news. I have tried it out and am very satisfied. I am sure if there were any issues which I have not encountered he would sort them for you, he is prompt, courteous and very helpful in his responses. Thanks Proko for another great resource for an eager artist..Version: 1.0
✓ Love it!Don't get me wrong, I adore this app. But if you were to update it again, there should be an option for muscles! If not, still an amazing app I love using!.Version: 1.01
✓ Amazing for artistsWow this is really amazing. Helps me with coming up with poses. Using this and watching Proko on YouTube..Version: 1.0
✓ An excellent toolThis is a wonderful tool for any artist. Accurate anatomy, great UI, and no bugs that crash the app (unlike so many other anatomy apps I have tried). I hope these developers make a muscular anatomy app- I would gladly purchase that!.Version: 2.00
✓ A Must-have App for Serious ArtistsIf you're a serious artist, then Skelly is a no-brainer. I don't mean to put down any other products here, such as the ArtPose apps, but Skelly 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 Skelly. The other thing I love about Skelly 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, Skelly 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..Version: 2.00
✓ Great App, One SuggestionI love this app for creating great references for my clients. Only suggestion I have and hence the 4 star is a green screen background option. As a tattooist, this feature would save me so much time in composing designs for clients..Version: 2.00
✓ PhalangesGreat app and l’ve done probably about 50 drawings from it. My only suggestion for improvement would be control of the fingers. You can move the hands at the wrist but you can’t, for instance, make a fist or have fingers slightly flexed as they are in a usual relaxed state..Version: 2.01
✓ Amazing app!I am doing the Proko anatomy course and this app is a godsend. I can see I’ll be spending uncountable hours studying the skeleton using this app. Thank you so much Proko for developing such as an app and selling at a price so reasonable.Version: 2.00
✓ It okayWhile it's a nice viewer, and I know it's supposed to have anatomical movements, the fact that ai can't move the forearms side to side drives me nuts. I have to figure out how to rotate other parts to get the arm where I want it..Version: 2.00
✓ A useful tool for any artist!A wonderfully simple and yet infinitely useful app. As an artist anatomy and poses are one of the hardest parts to get correct. Having a tool such as this to work out poses beforehand really cuts down the stress of finding references online or creating your own. It's a wonderfully simple idea, I'm surprised it hasn't been done before! If the app would allow the posing of fingers (another aspect of anatomy some of us dread) it would be perfect..Version: 1.0
✓ Almost perfectI've been looking for something just like this for 2 days. Bought it without hesitation. Would like to isolate body parts and adjust the hands including fingers.Version: 2.00
✓ Very useful appI love this app. I have been looking for something like this for a long time. However, I would love to see a few options added, mainly finger joints and jaw movement. Photo underlay would be nice, as well as the option to lock the rotation. I’d like to be able to zoom in without accidentally rotating the camera because then the overall perspective gets thrown off..Version: 2.00
✓ This is a good idea but...This idea good and handy for people that draw on the go, but it would be neat if you could open the jaw and move the fingers. Also joints shouldn't move past what is anatomically possible. If these changes were made I would love it that much more..Version: 2.00
✓ ImpressiveThe app is very smooth, easy to operate and intuitive. I'm a Registered Massage Therapist and an armature artist. I will enjoy using this app to explain treatments to my clients so they can visualize what I am talking about anatomically. For the last 15 years I've always had to draw it out for them if they could not visualize the anatomical problem areas. This will also be handy for drying as well. I would like to see one of the 3-D wooden dummy versions of this, perhaps as a third option to the skeletal system and the basic frame of the body..Version: 1.0
✓ Love itAbsolutely love the app! Only thing I would want, is to be able to do like just the hands or just the skull etc. maybe that could be a feature for future updates? Being able to do a focus on the hands or individual body party’s would be amazing 😊 but overall amazing app!.Version: 2.01
✓ Probably the best app going but could still use a lot of workThe existing features work well enough but it’s still quite... ah... bare bones. We could really use IK rigs on the limbs, i was trying to fix the terrible form of the default handstand and was having a lot of trouble because there was no way to pin the hands to the ground! IK rigs would let us make grounded poses so much faster. (on that note, letting us establish a ground plane would also be nice) Along that line, it would be useful to be able to change pelvic tilt directly, rather than have to manually rotate the ribcage and each leg relative to it, so much tedium in that. Finally, though much less important than the above, it would be great to have multiple skellies at once, and modifiable dimensions/proportions..Version: 2.00
✓ Great app but...I love this app for reference when drawing but I wish there was an option for the anatomy of muscle. Also it’s VERY difficult to zoom in and out without adjusting the pose. I suggest creating a feature to pause the app and allow zooming..Version: 2.00
✓ Superb app, 100% worth the priceSuperb app, even more so since the addition of saving poses, invaluable tool and would highly recommend..Version: 2.00
✓ Fan of Proko and SkellyI've been watching, learning, and practicing my drawing skills - often with Proko online! One of the most important things to work on is proportional representation. That is where Skelly really excels... No longer is finding reference photos and guessing the frame underneath happening. While building up a visual library in my mind, Skelly is an excellent reference for figuring out what the body can and can't do realistically. I really recommend this for anyone who needs to learn and perfect form or wants to push characters into new horizons..Version: 2.00
✓ Just purchasedIt is easy to use. The video tutorial provided showed the essentials. The lighting tool I still don't grasp how to use it. All in all it looks fun and will be useful. I had in the last couple of days discovered all the great proko videos and have enjoyed watching a few of them. I am not an artist but he makes it fun..Version: 2.00
✓ Incredible!!Stan Prokopenko continues to put out educational refernce material of the highest level - this app is no exception. A must own for art students looking for quality reference to support their efforts..Version: 1.0
✓ Wonderful for drawing full body poses!I adore this app, it’s so helpful for posing. The only minor sadness is that you can’t really pose the hands, though if you’re doing something full body this isn’t a big worry. I love this app and it is fantastic, I just wish that Skelly could make different hand gestures. The lighting unction definitely makes up for this though, at least in my book.Version: 2.00
✓ Always great!I have loved this app ever since 1.0, and it just keeps getting better each time. 2.0 brought a lot of features we wished we had in 1.0, so it’s been a great pose doll replacement. The only major gripe I have right now is that it does not support iOS 11’s multi-tasking split view, so having it next to your references, or digital drawing app is a no go. Hopefully this will be fixed in a update, or even in 3.0 (I would buy it a 3rd time)..Version: 2.00
✓ Perfect for figure drawingAwesome! I've been watching Proko videos for over a year and this app is a great extension to what Stan teaches in the figure drawing course. This app is very easy to use. I would love to see an option in a future release to add another object to the scene (like a cube, planes, or 2nd figure)..Version: 2.00
✓ UsefulIt is awesome app I love it..Version: 2.00
✓ DetailsNice app. Only a few minor things I’ve found that could do with improving. Elbows don’t move side to side only up and down, and no movement in the fingers. Otherwise the rest isn’t too bad..Version: 2.01
✓ Only missing one thing to be perfectHi, Very cool interface. But it works be nice to have white background option. So poses can be copy pasted in documents more easily. A more advanced feature would be to support IPad Pro split app view so you can drawn with a reference on the side. But please add white background..Version: 2.00
✓ Good - but I got an idea!Comes in handy!! But I’d love to be able to also just have the individual parts as well. OR at the very least just being able to rotate this skull. Being able to toggle things off will help with getting rid of clutter and focusing on the structures individually as well! Either way super happy about!.Version: 2.00
✓ Overall, great!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..Version: 2.00
✓ Too muchToo much money.Version: 2.00
✓ Um...Nice app to learn anatomy. I feel it would be better if the joints can be locked into some angle like how a real human works, instead of turning 360 degrees..Version: 2.00
✓ Amazing!And perfect for use with Proko's anatomy course. I do wish one could change the Field of View without zooming..Version: 2.01
✓ Helpful app, but…This app has a nice balance of power and simplicity. Very handy for making anatomy references while drawing, animating, etc. One important feature which is missing is the ability to set a focal length for the “camera.” As is, the shots are rather “wide angle” which is fine for casual use but a definite drawback when used for a reference for an actual artwork in progress where you don’t want as much distortion in your reference. Eagerly anticipating an update which addresses this!.Version: 2.01
✓ Nice artist toolEvery thing is great, I just wish you could open the jaw of the skeleton.Version: 2.01
✓ Very UsefulThis app is pretty good and useful when you want to be accurate when drawing skulls or ppl. Couple things I would love to see is being able to turn off and on light sources, and also being able to move the jaw bone..Version: 2.00
✓ Great appWorks really well. Very helpful. Would be nice to have a few extra features in there such as being able to save poses and having some default poses built in..Version: 1.01
✓ Straight to the pointGreat app freaking love it, would be help full to have a front, side, top, bottom view kind of thing trying to make thing symmetrical but I keep moving the screen read, other than that great app.Version: 2.01
✓ FeaturesApp is fantastic. It has some features like moving skelly to any pose U want, changing the angle and light. I finally have a good reference but please could skelly’s fingers be able to change movement in the next update. That would be a live saver. Thanks.Version: 2.00
✓ LimitsI think there should be a limits option on skelly so that we can move skelly how our own skeleton would move. Also the scapula should move with arm.Version: 2.00
✓ It's a great app but could use an updateFor 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..Version: 2.00
✓ Great visual aidThis has helped me understand how the body is truly shaped. Going back and forth between the mannequin and the skeleton really helped me with visual understanding of the human form..Version: 2.00
✓ Love it!Great! Wish I could upload a background, but totally easy to use..Version: 2.00
✓ Love it but could use some improvementI love the app and it has helped quite a bit however I would like more freedom to move skellys jaw and individual fingers!.Version: 2.00
✓ Very useful toolThis might be one of the most useful apps for artists that has appeared on the app store. Very sleek and also therapeutic when you don't need it for drawing (I expect)..Version: 1.0
