Description

Transform ordinary subjects into glowing little spirits. The top half shows the original photo; the bottom half removes clutter and outlines a small area around the subject using delicate, light ink lines that appear in a warm, faint off-white. The subject is no longer line art, but a soft, rounded, lineless spirit formed by gentle light. It retains its original shape while the body features layered gradients shifting from the photo's most vivid colors to pink, orange, yellow, green, and blue. Its face features only two small round eyes and a short horizontal line for a mouth. Other little spirits peek out nearby, connected by an arc of light. The surrounding area remains mostly blank, with a line of handwritten pencil text in the bottom right corner. Avoid subjects with vague shapes that rely on fine details to be recognized, full color illustrations or commercial cartoon characters, and dark, realistic, or serious photographs.

Costume Figurine

Turns pets, family members, or small objects into picture book characters ready for a journey. The top half shows the original photo; the bottom half removes the background and lighting, presenting the subject standing straight and facing forward. They wear a solid-color cloak or hood, or a pointed cap, holding a small staff or a small item from the photo. The character is rendered in flat watercolor washes with watermarks left after drying, and fluffy areas brushed with dry strokes. The face features only two small black dots for eyes and a tiny nose, with no black outlines or shadows. The costume uses soft, washed-fabric colors with a warm, bright accent on the prop, set against a warm white background with a light pencil note at the feet describing their journey. Avoid requests requiring running or jumping actions, complex backgrounds, big cartoon eyes, realistic fur, black outlines, or flashy colors.

Floating Pixel Art by xiaoxiaodong

Perfect for turning photo subjects into a floating, pastel pixel art piece. The top half shows the original photo; the bottom half redraws the subject as a self-contained small art piece centered in a large expanse of light negative space, with a soft shadow offset from the piece at the bottom right that fades into the distance. The artwork uses uniform pixel grids, breaks curves into horizontal and vertical steps, merges details into grouped rectangles, and features no black outlines. Colors are sampled from the photo into four to six high-lightness pastel shades, with a small amount of muted dark tones and a single highlight, resulting in clean and flat color blocks. A thin, light sans-serif caption may appear outside the artwork. Avoid photos that require clear facial recognition or fine textures, scenes intended to fill the entire frame, or cartoon styles, smooth curves, plastic textures, and old paper textures.

xiaoxiaodong P320 Silhouette

For turning an ordinary photo into a distinctive character captured by an artist—not a commercial mascot. The top half is the original image; the bottom half first establishes a silhouette, then layers broken, overflowing, and not-quite-closed gesture lines over it. Proportions may be rounded or slightly distorted. A circle, star, or sprig of a plant can support the identity, but must not become the background. Ink lines sit on paper, loose yet controlled, forming a small collectible icon. Use a warm, limited palette: warm yellow, ochre, soft orange, off-white, dark brown, and deep red, with a small amount of cool color for balance. Avoid smooth vector shapes, excessive retouching, cute IP, and complete scenes.
