I'm brand new to Headshot (HS) having purchased it just yesterday 06/04/20. So if my questions and comments exhibit maddening ignorance, it's because that's what I am.
1. Why I bought HS. I have this insane idea of using it to create artwork. For example: My college age younger self as college student standing in front of our dormitory. Also, to create book cover images. I've used iC7 this way with semi-satisfactory result but now believe HS is a better option.
2. What I wish. It would be nice to have a wider range of ethnic faces from which to choose. At this time, I plan to explore using vintage photos scanned from albums, what GOOGLE can find, and haunt Goodwill stores and yard sales. It's amazing what old portraits and photos you can find from time to time.
Including 1920-1940 era movie stars and other known and unknown people. I may have to look into the legality of using some.
3. Helping my wife. I expect to also create image ideas for my artist wife who is a pyrographic artist. Her work is mostly close up work showing of western in various common activities and scenes.
4. A question. Has anyone else tried or thought of using HS in the manner described above? I know RL folks are animation focused. I also know you're very creative, so....
