Available for free on iPad, iPhone, and Android.
Horse Poser is a powerful, easy-to-use tool designed
specifically for artists, illustrators, and hobbyists who want
to create accurate and dynamic horse poses. With its intuitive
controls, you can simply select a joint and pose the horse to
match your creative needs. Whether you’re working on character
design, illustrations, storyboarding, or just improving your
horse-drawing skills, Horse Poser is the ideal tool to help you
create lifelike and expressive poses.
This app is also a fantastic resource for Schleich
photographers, allowing them to plan and perfect their
photoshoots by visualizing poses in advance. No more searching
endlessly for the right reference photo—now you can create it
yourself!
One of the biggest challenges when drawing horses is finding
the right reference photo that captures the exact pose and
perspective you're looking for. Often, reference images don’t
quite fit what you need or lack the clarity required for
certain angles. With Horse Poser, you can create your own
custom 3D horse pose reference. This allows you to adjust the
angle, posture, and orientation of the horse to fit your
specific artistic vision.
Being able to rotate and
manipulate the 3D model gives you the freedom to study the
horse’s anatomy from every possible perspective, helping you
understand how its muscles and joints move in real
life—essential for improving your accuracy in drawing.
To add even more versatility to your creative process, Horse
Poser includes three rider characters: a girl, a cowboy, and
a knight. These optional riders can be posed on the horse,
helping you visualize how a person interacts with the
horse’s body during various actions like galloping, rearing,
or walking.
For artists working on storytelling, character design, or
illustrations, these rider options provide valuable context,
allowing you to create complete scenes with both horse and
rider, which is especially useful for fantasy or historical
art where horses and riders are commonly depicted.
Sometimes, the setting is just as important as the subject.
With Horse Poser, you can import background images directly
from your device’s photo gallery to create the perfect scene
for your pose. This feature is especially useful for artists
who want to experiment with composition or lighting without
spending hours searching for background elements or creating
them from scratch.
For illustrators or photographers planning a specific shot or
drawing, this feature allows you to integrate your horse model
into the environment you envision—whether it’s a dramatic
landscape or a quiet stable. This makes it easier to visualize
the final piece, saving you time and improving your workflow.
Horse Poser offers a variety of customization options,
allowing you to personalize your horse model to fit your
exact artistic needs. You can adjust the color of the
horse’s coat and mane, which is useful for designing
specific characters. Additionally, the app allows you to
remove or add accessories like the saddle and reins, giving
you complete control over how your horse looks in each
scene.
For artists working on character design or anyone looking to
practice drawing different types of horses, this feature
allows you to explore and experiment with various looks and
styles.
One of the standout features of Horse Poser is its collection of nearly 30 built-in horse animations. These animations can help you explore how horses move in various scenarios—whether it’s galloping, trotting, rearing, or standing still. For artists, studying these animations offers invaluable insights into the movement and anatomy of horses, helping you create more dynamic and realistic poses. By seeing how the horse moves through different stages of action, you can select the exact moment that captures the energy and flow you want to portray. This makes it much easier to create lifelike drawings, especially for complex poses where understanding the movement is key.
Once you’ve created the perfect pose, Horse Poser makes it
easy to share your work with others. Whether you want to
save the pose for future reference, share it with
collaborators, or post it to your social media, the app
allows you to save and export images with just a few
clicks.
This feature is especially valuable for artists who want to
showcase their progress or seek feedback from peers, as it
enables quick sharing without the need for external editing
tools. It’s also perfect for photographers who want to share
mockups of their planned shots or Schleich photographers who
are planning detailed dioramas.
Every feature in Horse Poser is designed to make the creative process easier and more intuitive for artists of all levels. Whether you’re a beginner learning to draw horses or a seasoned illustrator looking for a reliable reference tool, Horse Poser offers a flexible, powerful, and fun way to practice, create, and enhance your art. From horse 3D models to props, background integration, and animation reference, Horse Poser takes the guesswork out of creating realistic horse poses—giving you more time to focus on what you do best: bringing your ideas to life.
