Virtual Pose 3 by Mario Chakkour (2004, Package)

As a working artist, I often need to review several poses for a major composition. Working on a limited budget, I cannot afford to hire a model or models. Chakkour is providing a computer-aided method, with 70 nude models, 360-degree rotation of each, and the ability to zoom in and print any pose. The poses range from static standing or sitting poses to very dynamic poses. The female models tend to be young, fit, brunette, and mostly white. The men tend to be muscular and white, although there is one older, pot-bellied guy! (hooray!). Some of the poses are contortions. If you're having problems with foreshortening, check out some of these poses! This VP is better in many respects than VP2. But I miss the neat music of VP2 and the sketching exercises for beginners! And while you're checking out this VP3, check out Chakkour's next one, Dual Poses. VP1-3 featured only solo models. Dual poses features MF, FF, and MM poses. While not as extensive or as easy to interpret technically, Dual Poses offers interactions that other sources do not. And besides, I've never found two models willing to pose for extended periods of time in some of these poses.
