Key Features
Create Character Sheets from Text Alone
No existing artwork? Describe your character in the character prompt field. Specify hairstyle, clothing, body type, weapons, and defining traits. The generator builds a complete character design sheet from your words.
Generate Three-View Ref Sheets from One Image
Upload a single illustration and the AI extracts design details — outfit, proportions, colors, accessories — then produces consistent front, side, and back views. No more redrawing the same character from multiple angles.
Multiple Art Styles
Choose from Anime, Semi-realistic, Chibi, Comic Book, or Custom. Each preset adjusts rendering to match your project's visual language. The Custom option handles niche styles and specific creative directions.
