# Character Turnaround Generator

Upload one image of a character — drawn, rendered, or photographed — and Made generates a turnaround: front, three-quarter, side, and back views with the design held consistent.

## How to use Character Turnaround Generator

1. **Upload the character**
   One clear image — concept art, a render, or a photo — showing the design you want held.
2. **Name the views**
   “Front, three-quarter, side, and back in a row” for a classic sheet; or one specific view.
3. **Anchor the design**
   Say “same outfit, proportions, and colors” so only the viewpoint changes.
4. **Verify the details**
   Check design elements that were invisible in the source — the back is imagined, so confirm it matches intent.

## What people use it for

- **Game and animation reference** Give modelers and animators the multi-view sheet they need from one concept image.
- **Mascot development** See a brand mascot from every side before committing to the design.
- **Custom merchandise and toys** Plush and figure manufacturers ask for front, side, and back views — generate them from one image.
- **Consistent character art** Build expression and pose sheets so a character stays on-model across content.

## Generate a character turnaround sheet

### What it does

**Input**

One character image (JPEG, PNG, or WebP) plus the views you need

**Output**

PNG turnaround sheet or individual view

**How it works**

Made sends your photo and the instruction to the Nano Banana 2 edit model on fal.ai and returns a PNG. When that provider is not configured, the edit falls back to Google’s Nano Banana on Replicate.

**Access**

### Formats and limits

**Input formats**

JPEG, PNG, WebP

**Output format**

PNG

**Images per request**

One character image

**Unseen views**

Sides not visible in the source are AI-imagined — review back-view details against your intent

**Precision**

Reference-sheet quality for design and pitching; not orthographically exact for CAD

## Questions about Character Turnaround Generator

**What is a turnaround sheet used for?**

It is the standard reference document for keeping a character consistent: front, three-quarter, side, and back views on one sheet. Animators, 3D modelers, plush manufacturers, and freelance artists all work from turnarounds — it is usually the first thing they ask a client for.

**How accurate is the back view if my image only shows the front?**

It is a plausible invention consistent with the visible design — the model continues patterns, colors, and construction around the character. If the back has a specific element (a logo, a tail, a backpack), describe it explicitly rather than hoping the model guesses it.

**Will proportions stay consistent across the views?**

Largely yes, since all views generate from one anchored design, but AI turnarounds are reference-grade rather than orthographically measured. For 3D modeling they work as visual reference; final proportions get locked in the modeling package.

**Can I make expression and pose sheets too?**

Yes — the same anchoring works for “this character: happy, angry, surprised” or a set of action poses. Expression sheets are the natural companion to a turnaround for animation and comic work.

**Does it work with a photo of a person?**

It works with any character image, including people — useful for costume design or stylized avatars. For real people, use your own photo or one you have consent to use.

**What source image gives the cleanest turnaround?**

A full-body view on a plain background with even lighting and the design fully visible — no crops, no overlapping props. The sheet can only hold consistent what the source shows clearly.

**Can a manufacturer actually work from these sheets?**

Plush and figure makers commonly accept AI-generated turnarounds as design references — they need clear front, side, and back views more than technical drawings. Confirm details like exact colors in writing, since manufacturers match what they see.
