I have seen some discussions about that topic and didnt get a straight answer:
Creation of a face out of a picture seems way more complicated that I anticipated, and I havent seen any comprehensive tutorial to make it more achievable, so I have 2 questions:
1. What type of file should the end product be? What is the the process of taking this file and uploading it to VAM?
2. Is there a service\person who is proficient in this and can just be paid to create some faces?

thanks

1. A lot of people have a lot of different flows. It is complicated. There's probably no one size fits all solution. My flow goes through Daz Studio, because I've used that a long time. It has its own steep learning curve. If you've never used that, it might not be the best answer. I use a plugin for Daz called Headshop, but it has its issues. Facegen is another one. The easy part about Daz is that I end up with a dsf file for the morph. I just put that in Custom\Atom\Person\Morphs\female\[Free] SlimerJSpud and Vam converts the dsf to vmi and vmb files. There is a Daz to Var converter, but the problem with that is that everything gets marked PC, which means I can't put it in a var and publish it as free. All my published looks went through...

2. There are a number of creators here who take commissions. Start looking at the creators who make really good paid lookalikes of famous people we are not allowed to call out by name...
