Abstract
A montage composing apparatus is provided for composing a desired picture of a human face without any complicated manipulations. The apparatus requires no operation for selecting and combining part patterns to compose the picture of a human face. Several sets of part numbers of patterns which composes a picture of a human face, are previously stored in a basic face ROM. One of set of part numbers is selected and stored in a RAM. Patterns corresponding to the part numbers stored in the RAM are read out from a pattern ROM and are combined in a composing memory to compose a picture of a human face. The composed picture of a human face is displayed on a display unit. When one of the patterns composing the picture of a human face displayed on the display unit is required to be replaced with another pattern, the part number of the pattern to be replaced is registered to the RAM. A pattern corresponding to the registered part number is read out from the pattern ROM, and combined in the composing memory to compose a picture of a human face with another pattern replacing the original pattern.
