FaceGen

What FaceGen is

FaceGen creates 3D human faces from photos, 3D scan data, or random generation. Its Windows Modeller offers more than 150 controls for changing characteristics such as age, race, gender, and caricature. It also includes more than 110 morph targets, including Facial Action Coding System targets, and can adapt expressions and accessories to each face. Modeller exports meshes to formats such as DAE, FBX, OBJ, and STL, with optional expression morph targets; its manual describes importing DAE files into Blender and FBX files into Unity. FaceGen Artist creates faces for Daz Studio Genesis meshes, with support listed for Genesis 1, 2, 3, 8, 8.1, and 9. There are free demo editions and paid one-time plans: Artist Pro is $100, paid once, Modeller Core is $300, paid once, Modeller Pro is $900, paid once, and Modeller Enterprise is $2,900, paid once. Modeller purchases are perpetual licenses for one concurrent user. FaceGen supports commercial use, but exported models retaining photo color details have distribution restrictions. Facial controls are statistically correlated, so each cannot be isolated perfectly.
