The best trends of the generation of AI are the cute, in particular those which transform us into our favorite characters or at least the facsimiles of them. Cat The capacity of 4o to generate memes and realistic figures is now almost unequaled, and it is difficult to ignore new trends and miss all the pleasure. The last one is based on a popular set of anime style toys called Chibi Figures.
Chibi, which is the Japanese slang for small or short, describes tiny figures and poached with exaggerated characteristics such as compact bodies, large heads and large eyes. They are adorable and fairly popular online. Consider them as tiny cousins of Funko Pop!.
Real chibi figures can make you pass as to $ 9.99 to many $ 100. Or, you can create one in Chatgpt.
What is interesting about this prompt is that it is strongly based on the source image and does not force you to provide an additional context. The lens is a realistic chibi character that looks like the original photo, and so that it appears inside a plastic capsule.
The invite describes this container as a “Gashapon”, this is what they call when they come from a Bandai automatic distributor. Bandai did not invent this type of capsule, of course. Tiny toys in small plastic containers that open in two halves have been on sale in automatic distributors for more than 50 years.
If you want to create a chibi figure, you just need a decent photo of yourself or someone else. It must be clear, sharp, colorful, and at least show all their faces. The effect will be better if it also shows part of their outfit.
Here is the prompt I used Chatppt Plus 4o:
Generate an image focused on the portrait of a realistic and complete Gaspon capsule owned between two fingers.
Inside the capsule is a miniature version of Chibi style and full figure of the person in the downloaded photo.
Chibi’s figure should:
- Closely resemble the person in the photo (face, hairstyle, etc.)
- Wear the same outfit as the one viewed about the downloaded photo
- Be in a pose inspired by the chosen theme
A time capsule
Since there is no background or accessories recognizable in the final image of the Chatgpt Chibi figure, the end result is all on the appearance and the dresses of the character.
I did some characters. A based on a photo of me, another based on an image of Brad Pitt, and, finally, a based on one of my heroes, M. Rogers.
These Chibi figurines would do the Crunchyroll Mini and the Chibi Store, but I must admit that they rely strongly on kindness and not so much on likelihood.
Even if none of them looks like the source, that of Mr. Rogers is my favorite.
Remember that the generation of IA images is not without cost. First of all, you download your photo to OPENAIserver, and nothing guarantees that the system does not learn and does not use it to form future models.
The generation of AI images also consumes electricity on the server side to create models and solve prompts. You may be able to agree to plant a tree or two after generating half a dozen chibi ai or more figures.
