evolverfxguide has the news that Evolver, a web-based 3D character generator, is now live and accepting users.  Login and build a 3D character with their web-based tools, and then purchase the model suitable for use in the modeling package of your choice.

Evolver delivers 3D characters designed for a broad range of uses. The site’s simplicity and user friendly interface makes it easy for anyone to dive in and create a 3D avatar or clone quickly and for free, exportable for use in any destination including virtual worlds, social networks, animations and more. More advanced 3D artists can save hours of production time by generating original Evolver characters and exporting high resolution models fully rigged for animation, for a small fraction of the cost of creating comparable models from scratch.

You have the option and ability to put your models in videos and social networks like Facebook and Myspace, and you can get the model transported to systems like Torque, FaceFX, WildPockets, wonderland, andOgre.  If you’re interested, be sure to check out the fxguide site for a 50% off coupon.
