Character design sheet of Aurelia, an adult fae woman in her late twenties. Cinnamon-brown skin, Mediterranean and Arab features, wide green eyes, sharp nose, small nostril ring and septum ring, multiple ear piercings. Long, voluminous dark wavy-to-curly hair, full but soft. Faint pale white scar-like lines across her skin, like a white tattoo on dark skin tracing the paths of her veins along her arms, neck, and collarbones. Wearing loose deep blue linen barrel leg pants and a loose quarter length linen shirt with burnt orange, cream, and warm green accents.

Got questions? Answered.
How does the AI character generator work?
Describe the character you imagine in a few words — their look, outfit, mood, world — or upload a photo, and pick one of 72 art styles. The AI renders your character as a high-resolution artwork in seconds. From there you can edit them with plain-English instructions, upscale up to 128 MP, or animate them into a video clip.
Is Character Art free?
Yes — sign in with Google and get 2 free credits. A standard character costs 1 credit. To keep designing, plans start at $9/month for 250 credits, and one-time credit packs are available too.
Can I turn a photo into character art?
Absolutely. Upload any photo, choose a style like anime, 3D render, or oil painting, and the AI transforms it into a stylized character portrait while keeping the subject recognizable. You can also add a prompt to steer the design.
Can I make character videos?
Yes. Generate a video straight from a text prompt, or animate any character you've designed into a short cinematic clip — 4 to 15 seconds, up to 1080p, with optional audio.
Who owns the characters I create?
You do — your original characters are yours. By default creations appear in the community feed; paid users can make theirs private. See our Terms of Service for details. Keep in mind copyright law varies by country — we can't give legal advice, so talk to a legal expert about specific questions.
