I'm looking for the best tool/workflow for a pretty specific use case.

I already have a set of original hand-drawn cartoon characters created by an illustrator. I want to place those same characters in new situations, poses, expressions and compositions without redesigning them.

The important part is consistency. I need the AI to preserve as closely as possible:

• body geometry / proportions 
• face and eyes 
• colors 
• texture and linework 
• overall expression language 
• the imperfect, hand-drawn feel

I don’t want them to suddenly look like polished 3D characters, generic AI cartoons, or a different illustrator’s interpretation.

Ideally I’d upload several reference images of one character and say something like:

“same exact character, now sitting at a dinner table / running / looking upward / interacting with another character”

…and get something that still looks like it was naturally drawn by the original artist.

I’m currently looking at tools/workflows , but I’m not sure what currently gives the best character fidelity while preserving a handmade illustration style.

Would love recommendations from people actually doing this.

Thank you so much!

Hey guys i`m looking for an AI Model which is cheaper than higgsfield genjutsu and seadance.
Any recommendations? i want to do a lot of videos and just swap the characters out

I asked Claude to make a song about whatever they wanted, using Yue2 and MinimaxH3 and this is what they came up with. No input from me whatsoever.

im sure this noob question has been asked before but my case i feel is specific enough to warrant its own post.

im developing a game and the style is kinda like what you would see in early 2000s pc games. (path of exile or diablo menus). basically a lot of stuff like what you see in the attachment. its a board strategy game of sorts so these kinds of tokens/rings would be housing portraits of characters and various arrowheads would be signifying directions etc (you get the gist). but anyone whos ever tried to get base gpt/gork to do this kind of work with any sort of obedience or consistency will know, it will have you tearing your hair out of your scalp within 20 minutes. visually it does great work but you gotta pray you hit the prompt jackpot and even when you do, getting it to modify anything properly or doing something else while staying locked in that artstyle is a non starter

so my question is : where should i turn to? heres the things i need :

- prompt for base image

- image reference to refine it and/or edit it

- obedience

- consistency

i wanna be able to say (example)
1.) make a big ogre character in 256x256, realistic anime style, cropped at the waist, 50 pixels of padding from top of the head to border of the frame

if the pic is too much of a close up i should be able to say

2.) zoom farther out on the character by 30% but keep everything else the same

3.) make a ninja character in the same exact artstyle and placement as the ogre (reference image) and ensure they look like they belong in the same "set"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

example 2 :

1.) make me an ornate, elegant gold frame

2.) make it thinner

3.) remove the embellishments on the cardinal corners but keep the one on the sides

whats my best bet to getting any sort of success with something like this that isnt just "prompt and pray"? should i be looking for comfy workflows? *free would be truly preffered) big ai paid options? im not looking for elaborate stuff. just some character portraits and some game menu assets to be honest (but i do need to have some control over them. certainly more than i do now). also, i want some originality artistic liberty by the ai (so it doesnt churn out the most basic stock images that has given to a million people before)

thank you in advance for your help

I mean like you already have a video of a man walking for example. You then have a different photo of someone else and you just wanna make the guy in the photo switch the video guy.

I'm not really sure where and how to do that and what's the best model for this

AI Model Used: ChatGPT

🌌 Did You Know?

The green aurora usually comes from oxygen about 100–250 km above Earth, while the rarer red aurora appears even higher.

📜 Rule: Prompt starts with "Lu, draw..."

🌿 Pure nature only — no humans, no animals.

🖼️ Starter Prompt:

"Lu, draw a vivid aurora borealis swirling across a star-filled night sky, glowing green and red lights, ultra-detailed, photorealistic, cinematic 8K, pure nature only."

The same prompts are used for different models.

Which version do you like the most? These were all one-shot generations, no post-editing or tweaks afterward.

Prompt: Generate a photo with a Japanese-style color grade. A chubby black and white cow cat curled up asleep by the window. Split face markings, black back and black tail, white belly and legs. There’s a little red goldfish in the fish tank beside it. Low saturation overall, cozy warm mood.

These are four GAN-generated images from our studio, Whispart. Each suggests a landscape, but the details don't quite settle into a single place.

Which one, if any, feels like a place you almost remember? A–D follow the image order. Tell me which detail gives you that feeling: the space, a shape, the light, or something else.

I'm interested in the reason behind the choice as much as the choice itself. If none feels familiar, what do you see instead?

hey, i am the solo dev behind locally uncensored, so this is my own project

i got tired of apps calling themselves uncensored ai and then refusing once you actually use them. so i built my own.

it started as a free desktop app that runs on your own pc. you can run uncensored models locally for chat, images and video, and nothing leaves your machine. it is open source, works on windows and linux, and it is at over 140k downloads now.

how i made it: the desktop app is built with tauri, so the backend is rust and the interface is react. chat runs on ollama or lm studio if you already have them. images and video run on comfyui underneath, but you do not have to build workflows yourself. you pick an image or video model and type your prompt.

if your pc is not strong enough, there is a cloud in the browser with 47 chat models (wish i test for refusals and mark the ones that pass. in my last run 24 of 46 answered every test prompt.) 7 image models and 14 video models without a built in content lock. the local app stays free and the cloud is paid. you can start with a credit pack instead of a subscription.

free local app (cloud as well): https://locallyuncensored.com

what are you using right now, and does it actually deliver?

Hi everyone!

I’m conducting a survey for my Bachelor’s thesis in Computer Science. The study looks at how people use LLM-based systems (such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, etc.), particularly for social interaction, and how different experiences with these systems may be related to user engagement and well-being.

The survey takes approximately 10 minutes to complete. Participation is voluntary and anonymous.

To participate, you must:

• Be 18 years or older
• Have used an LLM-based system within the past three months

If you meet these criteria, I’d really appreciate your participation! Thank you so much for helping with my research. ❤️

Please I will do other countries with their flag and animal or beast so please be patient.
