Prompt Template

Common Failure Points

  • Using group photos instead of individual headshots, which confuses the cartoonization model
  • Setting transformation too aggressive, making subjects unrecognizable
  • Mixing different cartoon styles in the same campaign or project
  • Not checking how the cartoon version looks at small avatar sizes where detail may be lost
