For some time, I have been thinking about a program that will generate a 3D humanoid image (male or female), based on numerical input of Height & B-W-H (Bust-Waist-Hip) or the male equivalent. The program must allow adjusting the input values on the fly to update the image, provide a rotational view of the generated image, & allow exporting the image for use in other 3D modeling software. Preferably, the program would possess sliders for the given values, allowing one to adjust 'by hand' the generated image, & returning the measurement values, as well as a 'bulk' measurement, allowing generation of overweight & underweight images.

To my knowledge, existing modeling software (Lightwave/Maya/etc.) does not allow this, nor have I been able to locate the desired program (if such software exists at all). If anyone knows where to acquire such software, I would greatly appreciate being pointed towards it. Likewise, if anyone feels capable of making such software, it would be appreciated if you do so & make it available.

The only thing I can think of is a program called (IIRC) FaceGen. Very good program for making very human looking faces, with options to tweak facial features and race tendancies.

Of course though, the program is only for faces, and not bodies. Worth checking out though.

I have been toying with FaceGen, & it is an excellent example of what I am looking for in the desired body generation program; although I would like such detail available in body generation, I certainly do not need it.

If anyone has leads on a BodyGen program (of which the manufacturers of FaceGen have no plans for), please let me know.
