A recently developed alternative to MakeHuman is [https://mb-lab-community.github.io/MB-Lab.github.io/ Manuel Bastioni Lab] (developed by Manuel Bastioni, a former user of MakeHuman). Unlike MakeHuman, MBL exists only as a Blender plugin. It features new base mesh topologies, as well as a muscle rig for more advanced deformations. Facial animation and "proxies" (alternative topologies) are currently in development.
An alternative to MakeHuman was MB-Lab, a fork of the discontinued Manuel Bastioni Lab (developed by a former user of MakeHuman). Unlike MakeHuman, MBL existed only as a Blender plugin. It featured new base mesh topologies, as well as a muscle rig for more advanced deformations. Facial animation and "proxies" (alternative topologies) were in development, but the project was discontinued in July 2024 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20240418233318/https://mb-lab-community.github.io/MB-Lab.github.io/ former web page], [https://github.com/animate1978/MB-Lab archived GitHub repo]).
