Step by step

Run the workflow

  1. 01

    Create your character sheet

    In ChatGPT, ask for a character sheet using the sample below. Replace the highlighted description, then save the image.

    Character reference sheet of an elderly man: front close-up, side profile and full-body view in the same outfit.
    Example: one character, three views.

    Copy the sample prompt

    An adaptable example, not the original prompt used for this image.

    Replace the highlighted text with your own.

    Create a photorealistic character reference sheet of [an elderly man around 70 years old, with short grey hair, natural wrinkles and age spots, wearing a blue-grey jacket over a white T-shirt, charcoal trousers and dark trainers].
    Use three panels: a front-facing face close-up, a side-profile face close-up, and a full-body front view with both feet visible.
    Show exactly the same person, facial features, hairstyle and outfit in all three panels. Use a neutral expression, a plain white background and soft, even studio lighting. Keep realistic skin texture and natural proportions. No text, labels, logos or watermarks.
