    Well not really - this is more like taking the regular metahuman base and shaping it around a custom model, resulting in a custom sculpted MetaHuman variant (basically skipping the manual tweaking step). Still very cool though !

The tool merly snaps the MH structure to a few marker pointsand the to the surface of the input model. I don't think there is any need for a very detailed source input - as a matter of fact I would assume that even a broken/incomplete head scan would work just fine.
