Character creation tool for Blender

MB-Lab has been developed to work with Blender 2.80

We are a small bunch of developers and artists but we always need more! MB-Lab's code is quite complex and needs work, to either fix bugs or to add new features, Python programmers are always welcome! Do you have other skills? We need modelers to help with future base models for instance. Are you a specialist in rigging? We could use some help improving the rigs for MB-Lab. There are lots to do in this project, we can only do so much at a time so please feel free to join us, fork the repository and then make something cool.

MB-Lab is a community developed and supported project based off ManuelBastioniLAB.

If you're interested in helping this project Financially or to see behind the scenes information of this plugin's Development, Please support our Patreon.

This fork is an attempt to keep this addon going forward as the original author is no longer developing ManuelBastioniLAB
