AI Prompt
“Reference the identity and facial features of the original image: 1.8}, {Character consistency: 1.8}. Generate a vertically oriented, top-and-bottom stitched image based on the user-uploaded photo. Upper section: Fully preserve the original image uploaded by the user—use it exactly as is, without any redrawing or enhancement. Do not alter the character’s identity, gender, facial features, hairstyle, makeup, expression, pose, body proportions, clothing, accessories, background, lighting, color palette, composition, or sharpness. The original image must not be cropped, stretched, distorted, or have irrelevant elements added. Lower section: Based on the main character from the upper section’s original image, create a corresponding artistic illustration. Accurately retain the character’s key facial features, gender, hairstyle, clothing, accessories, pose, and overall demeanor, ensuring that the illustrated character maintains a high degree of consistency with the original image. Adopt a minimalist, fashion-inspired hand-drawn illustration style, using delicate line drawings, natural and casual sketching strokes, and lightly applied watercolor or gouache in low saturation tones. The background should be made of off-white or warm-white textured paper, featuring natural paper grain, subtle texture, and a faint vintage printing effect. Pay special attention to the compositional proportions of the lower section: The illustrated character must be scaled down and placed precisely in the center of the lower half; it must not be positioned close to the edges, nor should it fill the entire frame. Avoid overly close-up or extreme close-up compositions. The character’s overall height should occupy approximately 45% of the lower section’s height, while its width should account for about 35% of the lower section’s width. Leave ample, balanced white space above the character’s head, on both sides, and beneath its feet. The visual center must be strictly located at the exact middle of the lower section, creating an effect where a small-scale illustrated character is set against a large expanse of blank paper. The upper and lower sections are arranged vertically, with clear boundaries and harmonious proportions, presenting a striking contrast between the original image and the small-scale hand-drawn illustration. The overall style is calm, restrained, artistic, and sophisticated, evoking the aesthetic of fashion magazine illustrations and independent posters. {Refer to the main facial features and gender of the character in the original image}, {Realism: 1.6}

Photos with a clear subject, even lighting, complete framing, and minimal obstruction tend to work best. For portrait illustrations, choose a photo with a visible face and a natural viewing angle.
Can Guma Create Portrait Illustrations and Illustrated Profile Pictures?

Can I Turn a Pet Photo Into an Illustration?
Yes. Pet photos with a clear subject and visible details can also be transformed into illustrations. Choose an image that shows the pet’s face and body shape clearly with minimal background distractions.
Why Does the Illustration Look Different From the Original Photo?
Photo to illustration conversion changes the lines, colors, and smaller visual details in the original image. The result will not look exactly the same as the source photo. A clear subject and minimal obstruction can help retain recognizable features.
What Should I Do if the Generated Result Is Not What I Expected?
Try using a clearer photo with a more complete view of the subject. For portraits, avoid images with covered faces, dark lighting, heavy blur, or a person who appears too small in the frame.
Can I Upload a Photo of Someone Else?
Using your own photos is recommended. If another person appears in the image, ask for their consent first and make sure the image source and intended use are appropriate.
Where Can I Use the Generated Illustration?
Generated illustrations can be used for personal profile pictures, social media content, creative visuals, and personal projects. Before publishing an image publicly or using it commercially, review the source image and Guma’s current terms of service.
