    Not too shabby.

    Only the eyebrows look acceptable. The mouth, nose and eyes are entirely different.
    I look at all these supposed likeness over at the DAZ forums and can only think they must be tripping.... or at least very wishful thinking. Forking out money for programs that just-don't-work.

    It stills a large file, 1.2 GB ...
    Headshot_Plug-In_1.0.1118.1_Repack .rar
    Note: Avast AV will tag this file as infected by something like "MdeClass". After further research, I have installed it after disabling Avast for some minutes.

    @frank22 If you are looking for perfection without any work, You need an AI system. For automated, this is not too shabby. There is a pro section as well that allows you to tweak things to get it even closer, although I have not worked with it yet.

    They should at least by able to get the eye color closer than changing green/hazel to blue. That doesn't seem to be too much of a hurdle. However, this gets close enough to tweek and easier than morphing from scratch, so it's a win IMO.

    @ulysses I agree about the eyes. There are only 5 colors in the automated. But, once done, it is very easy to change the eye color to be close to the same. I'm playing with the pro settings now.

    I would like to see another base picture transfer to compare how much work the program is doing. Is ut just cut and paste or is it actually trying to conform the mesh.

    you really want to use the pro option, the result is entirly different. the auto option is more for background characters, with nearly no change in face structure. The pro results are far better, than facegen or face transfer.

    @littlepleasures I think you are mistaken in your assessment. Is it perfect? No. No system is going to be 100% perfect. Not even if you sculpt it yourself.
    However, with the tools available in CC3, you can get damn close.
    First it has an overlay function so you can match exactly.
    Second, it has 1000+ Morphs available to tweak the model to match.

    What is there is a quick and dirty automated process. As far as how good it is, I did 2 others of famous people, and they were recognized immediately for who they were by the group I tested them with.

    Headshot’s Auto mode, intended for generating “mid-res crowd [characters]”, generates both the head mesh and 3D hair, both with 1,024 x 1,024px texture maps.

    The output is designed to be used as is, but since Character Creator supports GoZ, the meshes can also be refined manually in ZBrush.

    The Pro mode, intended for characters that will be seen in close-up, generates only the head mesh with 4,096 x 4,096px textures. Hair can be added separately from Character Creator’s library.

    Map types generated include normal, AO, roughness, metallic, SSS and micro normal, making output compatible with the new Digital Human Shader in Character Creator 3.2.

    The Pro mode also provides extra toolsets when refining the head model manually, including the option to display the source photo on a reference plane behind the asset.

    There are also tools for reprojecting textures onto the model, to fix any alignment issues; and for masking out problem parts of the source image, such as facial hair.

    A quick comparisation, with no edits to the pro version (which you would normally do...)
