Etch is a simple to use web app designed to simulate a life drawing class, using high-resolution photos from Unsplash
Try it out here!
After using similar tools online I noticed that the images provided are often of an inconsistent theme, low quaility and/or locked behind a paywall.
- Sketch uses high resolution portrait images from a range of photographers, provided by Unsplash.
- These images are free to use, download, copy and manipulate under the Unsplash license.
- The images are all of clothed models, both to provide a family-friendly experience as well as provide an alternative to other tools which predominantly feature nude models.
Initial settings allow selection of pose time and model type.
After cloning or downloading the repo, in the root folder:
npm install
npm run build
Go to http://localhost:8000/ in your browser of choice.
- Pause pose
- Avoid duplicate poses during a single session
- Landscape/ nature option
- Option to source direct from Unsplash API (experimental)
