Below is a list of the best drawing mannequins that I put together and are currently available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A quality mannequin will help you to correct the right scale, pose, and proportions when figure drawing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is a drawing mannequin?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A drawing mannequin (or manikin) is a human figure that can be moved to a varying degree of poses for reference while drawing. Mannequins can also be sold for individual body parts including the hands, skull, and feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Common Drawing Mannequin Features<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Size<\/strong>: varies from a few inches to 12 inches tall. A life-size hand mannequin provides a realistic pose from multiple angles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gender<\/strong>: can be sold separately or as a male and female set. Proportions of both genders will also vary particularly in the waist and shoulders. Child size mannequins are also available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Material<\/strong>: is largely sourced from wood or PVC (polyvinyl chloride). Wood is a traditional material and should last longer. Plastic is often lightweight and may breakdown or weaken in poses over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Accessories<\/strong>: can include swords, computers, and even attachable hands at varying poses. Accessories are often sold with plastic mannequin sets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Price Point<\/strong>: varies depending on the material, size, and accessories. Most mannequins will cost around $20 each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
