Fitting Nose (New for Version 8)
Outlining the base shape of the nose is important because nose is the most prominent feature on the face. A good fitting of the nose can be almost 70-percent successful for creating a 3D head from a 2D human photo.
Fine-tuning Nose Position
Click on the point to transform the outline of the nose, or click on the line segment to drag the wireframe closer to the feature based on the illustration below:
- Nose Root - Fit this point to the nose root of the face in the photo.
- Nose Alea (plural of ala) - Move the four corner points to frame up the alea.
- Nose Tip - Fit this point to the tip of the nose.
- Nose Base - Move the point to the middle of the nose base.
- Nostril Back Points - These two points should be moved to the back edges of the nostrils.
- Nostril Front Points - These two points should be moved to the front edges of the nostrils.
- Nostril Inner Points - These two points should be moved to the inner edges of the nostrils.

| Manually adjust the points in accordance with the instructions of the illustration above. | The nose of the 3D head looks more similar to the one in the photo. |
Morphing Nose
After deforming the nose shape by fitting the feature points, if you need to fine-tune the size of the nose tips and ales, then you can drag the highlighted area as shown below to adjust them.
- The inner area - Dragging within this area vertically can adjust the nose tip up or down.
- The outer area - Dragging within this area horizontally can adjust the size of the nose tip and alea.
Note
The dragging in the morph areas maps to the facial feature sliders in the Detail Morph step. Please refer to the Fine-tuning with Detail Morph section for more information.
