This sounds good on paper, and in fact most major VFX studios have a tool like this to fix things like facial deformations or muscle sims in camera quickly, instead of trying to go back to the character rigging stage. However the tool is from the stone age. The sculpting is worse than Maya Artisan and the "camera" is a…
