Character Three-View
Generate front, side, and back views of a character with consistent style.
The Character Three-View tool generates a character sheet with front, side, and back views in a consistent art style. It's an essential tool for character designers, game artists, and illustrators.
Best for character design references, model sheets, and consistency checks across core views.
When to Use Character Three-View
- Character design — establish a character's full appearance for approval
- Game asset pipelines — provide reference sheets for 3D modelers
- Animation — create turnaround references for animators
- Concept art — explore and finalize character proportions
How to Access
Select an image node and click the Character Three-View button in the toolbar. The panel opens with fields for character description and style settings.
Input Fields
Character Description: Describe the character in detail — age, build, clothing, accessories, facial features, and any distinguishing marks. The more detail you provide, the more consistent the three views will be.
Style Reference: Specify the art style — realistic, anime, cartoon, pixel art, or describe a specific aesthetic. You can also reference an existing image node as a style guide.
Understanding the Output
The tool generates a single image with three panels:
- Front view — the character facing forward, arms typically at sides
- Side view — profile view, usually facing right
- Back view — the character from behind, showing back details
All three panels maintain consistent proportions, color palette, and style.
Tips for Consistency
- Describe clothing from all angles — mention back details like hoods or belts
- Specify height proportions — "eight heads tall" for heroic proportions
- Include color specifications — "blue jacket, black pants, brown boots"
- For accessories, describe how they look from the side and back
- Use the same character across multiple generations to refine the design
Best Practices
- Start with a clear front-view reference before generating the three-view
- Iterate on the description if views don't match
- Use the output as a turnaround reference for 3D modeling
- Combine with Multi-View Grid for detailed expression and pose explorations
