Using These Poses in copainter

Adjust Poses with the AI Assistant
Load the images as reference inputs to quickly generate pose variations such as changing angles, adjusting limb positions, or mirroring left/right. Since these are pose references, they can also be used when specifying poses for male characters.

Maintain Consistency with the Training Feature (Enterprise Plan Only)
By specifying poses for trained models, you can achieve highly accurate pose control. Pose precision that may be difficult to reproduce with the AI Assistant alone can work effectively on trained models. Using the Image-to-Image AI often produces better results.

Boost Efficiency by Using Them as a Base for the Line Art AI
Use these materials as rough layout references before applying the Line Art AI to improve workflow. You can edit and refine them in tools such as Photoshop or Clip Studio Paint, then apply the Line Art AI—making them useful even for difficult compositions.

Change Poses with the Pose Transfer AI
These can be used as input images for the Pose Transfer feature. Simply upload a character image and a pose image to easily change the character’s pose.
