I've never used anything like these but have always wanted to try. Both are on sale for 50% off right now. Any suggestions of which software is the best?

    I am hopping on the same boat with you.  I saw Headshop and it is down half price right now, and when I read the description, is just sounds too good to be true with all the stuff it comes with.  It says that it creates these 'dots' and you can further morph the face.  It says it includes 11 hairstyles too.  So now I am wondering what is the limitation.  Since the eyes mouth and everything is taken from a photo, it has me wondering if something like the eyes are mapped out and if you can move them.  If you can't then that is a big limitation.   So that is what I wanted to ask.  I was going to create a new thread, but when I saw yours, I figured I would just hop on your boat instead!   As for FaceGen Artist Pro, that I have not heard of, but I will look into it now that you mentioned it!

    Edit:  I found a thread you might find helpful:

    https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/292591/headshop-11-questions/p3

    On that page scroll down to the first post by Outrider42, he compares the two packages.  I would read the whole thread though.   There are definitely pros and cons to using these programs.

    Hope that helps!

    Thanks, Jukingeo! I met someone on Deviant Art who made me some celebrity morphs upon request using FaceGen Artist Pro, and they turned out really nicely, so I thought I would try it. Then when shopping Daz I saw HeadShop.

    I'll read that thread, for sure. Maybe others will comment here, too.

    PS. I am able to move the eyes with the morphs and textures from FaceGen.

    To whom it may concern, there is a Mac version of Headshop available (half price at the moment).

    I believe FaceGen is Windows only.
