Generate Actors' 3D faces with the easy face fitting wizard
Simplified actor creation using the 3D head modeling wizard for precise modeling based on head style, gender, age, personality, etc. Transform any head shot, photo or illustration into an iClone actor with 4 easy fitting steps.

Create custom faces for actors using photos. iClone automatically constructs the facial texture on the 3D face model. Your image or photo will appear on the 3D head inside iClone's 3D facial fitting wizard to precisely align your photo to your actor’s head.

Customize the shape of your 3D actor's head and face. The facial contours for Front and Profile views provide a quick and easy method to begin shaping your head model to match the face in your photograph. Further head and face shaping tools are available after fitting is completed. Shape the facial features individually for elfin ears, cartoon nose, or photo-realistic face modeling.

Front view photograph - The front view photo maps your face to the 3D head model face.

Profile view photograph (optional) - The profile view photo maps your profile to the 3D head model so your ears and facial profile can be added to the 3D head.

Photo blending - Your Front and Profile photos are blended together using the iClone texture blender to create a seamless and smooth texture for the entire 3D head.

 


 

 

 
 
 
Customizable 3D Actor face shape modeling including eyes, teeth and skin color
Once you have fitted a photo to the iClone 3D actor's head template, iClone offers further advanced customization. Inside the Facial 'Modify' panel are a series of powerful face shaping controls for fine-tuning the facial feature appearance, like eyes, brow, cheeks, chin, lips, and nose to match the facial features of the person from your imported photo. These tools can also be used to acheive non-photorealistic effects to create cartoon-like figures.








iClone synthetic facial feature library:

Eyes - Each iClone 3D head model has the option to keep the eye texture from the imported and fitted photo or you may choose from one of the elegant eye options inside the iClone Eye library featuring custom eye designs for realistic eyes or eyes with special effects.

Teeth - iClone heads are already rigged to perform facial animation, so when your character's mouth opens you have the ability to select and show teeth from the Teeth library. The iClone teeth library features many different styles of teeth from natural styles to animal teeth, and monster teeth. Teeth added to your 3D head model will animate in natural motion when your 3D avatar speaks, smiles or emotes.


Your 3D character's skin color is automatically determined by the face you choose to apply to your character's body. iClone takes a sample color from the chosen face and maps that color to the full body's exposed skin so that your face and body skin will match without any further editing as you select different body styles for your character.
