1. An image processing apparatus that generates an image pertaining to a subject, the image processing apparatus comprising:
at least one processor and/or circuit configured to function as a plurality of units comprising:
(1) an obtainment unit configured to obtain a captured image and asperity information of the subject;
(2) a first generation unit configured to generate 3D data of the subject based on the captured image and the asperity information obtained by the obtainment unit;
(3) an instruction unit configured to make a change instruction to change a form of the 3D data generated by the first generation unit;
(4) a second generation unit configured to generate, as the image pertaining to the subject, an image corresponding to the 3D data changed based on the change instruction, wherein the second generation unit renders a 3D space in which the 3D data after the change is placed; and
(5) a placement unit configured to place an object in the 3D space,
wherein the second generation unit generates the image pertaining to the subject by rendering the 3D space in which the 3D data after the change and the object are placed.
