FaceGen is a 3D face-generating middleware produced by Singular Inversions. It is used where there is a need for a large number of different possible faces - the most notable example of its use is for player character creation in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and Football Manager 2008. It can also be used to create faces from photographs and to edit faces in many ways.

It is also used by various police departments to make 3D models of suspects. According to the company, the software is far more useful in making police sketches than the various 2D software still being used in many places, due to its ability to render accurate 3D models of people with far more options to choose from, in order to create very detailed images.
