How to use
Want to see your photo in modern anime? This prompt turns your portrait into a contemporary Japanese animation character, with large expressive eyes, hair in defined strands and that cel shading finish. It works in Gemini, in NanoBanana and in ChatGPT.
1. Choose a nice sharp photo of yourself, facing forward and with good light on your face.
2. Open the image AI and send that photo in the same message as the prompt.
3. Copy and paste the whole JSON prompt right below the image.
4. Ask it to preserve 100% of your features, changing only the style to anime.
5. Generate a few variations until the face is recognisable and the linework pleases you.
6. Download the final art at high resolution to use as an avatar or to print.
Tip: adjust the palette and the background in the JSON itself to give it your own mood, whether in pastel tones or in neon colours.
