Cranio Head Study

Cranio Head Study is a quiet 3D studio built for one thing: helping you study the human head from any angle, under any light.

Tap once and you’re inside a dark room with a 3D head, a few lights and the controls a figure-drawing artist actually uses — tilt, side, turn, and a hemisphere full of draggable lamps.

— LIGHTING STUDIO
Up to five lights at once. Drag each one around a hemisphere over the head, dial in intensity from 0–100 %, pick a color temperature from a curated palette. Mute, solo or remove any light. Save what you find as a “Look” or load one of six classical setups: Rembrandt, Split, Butterfly, Rim Halo, Underlight or Flat Studio.

— POSE & TILT
Three independent axes — forward/backward tilt, side roll, and turn. Find the angle you want to draw and lock it. Reset to neutral with a single tap.

— SURFACE & FINISH
Try the head as plaster, clay, marble, porcelain, terracotta, wax, bronze, graphite, jade, obsidian or copper. Tint each finish warm, cool, rose, sage or ink to match the mood of your study.

— HEAD MODELS
The Asaro planar head is included. Écorché, Classical and Skull variants are on the roadmap and will appear automatically when you upgrade.

— BUILT FOR DRAWING
Flat shading by default — clean plane breaks, no PBR noise. Pose readout in monospace digits so you can rebuild the angle on paper. No timers, no streaks, no social features. Just a studio.

— RESPECTS YOUR DEVICE
Renders natively with Metal on iOS via our own engine — no game engine, no analytics, no ads. The app launches into the studio and stays out of your way.

PRO unlocks every model, every finish, the full lighting rig and 4K export with no watermark. Try Pro free for 7 days.

Recent changes:
• New Perspective grid: a horizon and 1, 2 or 3-point vanishing lines that follow the head as you orbit it
• Twist with two fingers to tilt the camera; Reset Pose levels it again
• Grid overlay lines can now be any color and thickness
