KeenTools' Latest Update Brings Out Revamped FaceBuilder For Blender

KeenTools has released a major update of the FaceBuilder Blender add-on, a powerful tool for creating photorealistic 3D portraits from a set of photos designed for game artists and animators.

According to the developer, KeenTools 2024.1 mostly focuses on one product that has been changed dramatically. The whole face-building workflow was revamped, starting with updated UI, regrouped controls, automatic face detection, and other optimization updates to provide users with the smoothest experience possible. Also, FaceBuilder now lets you capture face identity even from photos with non-neutral facial expressions by toggling the Allow facial expression button.

Here's the full list of changes included in the KeenTools' FaceBuilder for Blender update:

• Revamped UI
• Rotate head buttons
• Automatic face detection and mesh alignment for single-image-to-3D workflow
• One-click texturing
• Updated help texts and tooltips

KeenTools also prepared new educational material to help users learn FaceBuilder, including a detailed written guide and a comprehensive step-by-step video tutorial covering the whole process from the add-on installation to one-click texturing, including the image-to-3D workflow for building 3D faces from a single image demonstration.

The product page was also updated with fresh information, so if you're unfamiliar with FaceBuilder for Blender, we encourage you to check it out. It has an intuitive interface and allows for the creation of photorealistic digital faces with accurate geometry from several photos with real-time sculpting, several levels of detail, facial expressions support, and can be integrated with MetaHuman Creator or Character Creator as well. 

KeenTools 2024.1 also comes with minor fixes and improvements for GeoTracker for Blender, GeoTracker for After Effects, and Nuke Package.
