I've been using CC3 for several months to try to learn how to make a 3D character from a photo using Headshot.
Headshot somehow fails to create the exact outline of the face or any part thereof from the photo in the Auto or Pro mode.
I had to use the Active Image Matching Tools to manually adjust the detailed contours of the eyes, nose, lips, ears, and face of the character so that all those elements have the exact same contours as the original photo. I usually adjusted the opacity of the original photo while adjusting the character.
This was not easy. Especially getting the nose and eye shapes right was really painstaking.

After I finally reached the level of exactness I wanted, I saved the character and sent the character to iClone for animation.
But somehow the character sent to iClone looked a bit different from the original photo. I thought it was because it looked darker due to the different lighting settings in iClone and CC. Then I noticed that the iClone character looked a bit fatter than the original photo in the same lighting setting.

I was searching for the reason and I think I finally found it. When I bring up the saved character by applying the saved character to the CC default character in CC, it does look fatter than the original photo (even though I did match it to the original photo before saving it). What's funny is, when I go to the Headshot tab and turn on the Active Image Matching Tools to examine exactly where the saved character doesn't match the original photo, the character does match the original photo just like when I saved it, the reason being somehow at the moment I turn on the Active Image Matching Tools the character suddenly becomes leaner to match the original photo. Now even after I turn off the Active Image Matching Tools, the character stays leaner.

But when I send the completed character to iClone right after turning on the Active Image Matching Tools and confirming it matches the original photo, the iClone character turns out to be fatter than the original photo. What is happening??

Does this mean I cannot animate a character that exactly matches the photo using the Active Image Matching Tools in Headshot?
