I haven't been all that impressed with what I've seen of FaceGen. It's an awful lot of money for a mono-use 3D app. Sure, you can generate some great virtual duplicates of people......but at a very high price. If a relatively low-cost app comes along which does the same thing as FaceGen for a reasonable price, then FaceGen might just find itself out of business.
Could FaceShop Pro be that app.........? Maybe.
TrueSpace has a built-in face generating function -- and at least with TS, you are getting a full-blown modeling app for the money: not just a restricted-use face creation software package. On top of which, FaceGen isn't Poser-friendly, either. You've got to jump through a lot of hoops to create a workable face for V4 -- or any other Poser figure -- using FaceGen.
If they can smooth the wrinkles out of FaceShop Pro (no pun intended): then they'll have an advocate for the program in me.
