Variety of 3D anatomy reference
3D Reference Tool is much more than just a library of scans. Here, you will find 3D anatomy references – block-outs, anatomy models, and realistic assets – to help you understand and create realistic human anatomy.
The tool includes sex differences, age variations, and phenotypic diversity, making it one of the most versatile sets of 3D anatomy models for artists.
Male ecorche
Male ecorche is an excellent aid in anatomy studies for artists and the very first model we uploaded. Although it’s one of our most valuable assets, you can always access it for free.

Female ecorche
Finally, there’s a female ecorche! In the golden age of ecorche-making, the male was the focal point of art. We created a 3D model of a female ecorche – now available for subscribers on 3D Reference Tool!

Anatomy reference for artists
All our 3D anatomy references are made with artists in mind. We don’t include excess information in our models, focusing on explaining the surface forms – so they’re helpful references when creating your art.
Anatomy for animators
It's a challenging task. They way we approached it by scanning and sculpting the same people in multiple dynamic poses. These 3D models illustrates the changes in surface forms and anatomy during various movements.
Visible from any angle
Ever found the perfect image just to realize there are no references of the same posture from a different angle? 3D REF has 3D anatomy references for artists, which you can view from any angle and zoom in on the smallest details.
