Inputs
Create a character in seconds
Describe what you want in plain language, and Artly renders original, ready-to-use character art. No design skill and no upload required — start from text alone.
Text-to-image and image-to-image
Generate from a written prompt, or upload a reference and describe the change to restyle it. The same studio covers both flows so you can iterate quickly.
Steps
- Write your idea — describe the subject, style, and mood, or use the prompt helper.
- Pick a character style and a character-focused model.
- Review the displayed credit cost, then generate and download privately.
Parameters and controls
Every character style in one place
Switch between anime, semi-realistic, 3D, chibi and painterly with a single chip, and keep a look consistent across a whole set.
Great for OCs and RPG characters, game concept art and story illustrations
Use the Character generator for OCs and RPG characters, game concept art and story illustrations, then download in high resolution — your results stay private to your account.
Failure modes and fixes
Where the character generator needs a second pass
Prompt-only generation gets the composition right long before it gets the details right, so decide what "good" means before you spend credits: write one acceptance test — the thing this character must show to work for OCs and RPG characters, game concept art and story illustrations — and judge against that, not against your previous attempt. Generate a small batch and compare them side by side instead of regenerating one at a time. Stop once a result passes; if three rounds miss the same way, choose a different style from anime, semi-realistic, 3D, chibi and painterly. Legible words inside the image are the usual failure — generate the artwork here and set the type yourself.
