AI can change fine details. Review faces, edges and text before sharing.

Requires a photo and returns one static image. This tool does not create animation, moving GIFs or images from text alone.

This example uses DeepSwapAI's public brand image, not a customer's photo. It is one completed generation, not a quality benchmark or a promise of the same result.

Example details

Generated on 5 September 2026 with WaveSpeed WAN 2.7 Image Edit Pro at the 2K setting; 8 credits. The original result is a 2720 × 1536 PNG. The images shown here are resized WebP previews, without retouching.

This example was tested with purchase-equivalent export access. Future images are watermark-free after a completed credit purchase. This is not a free watermark-free generation offer.

Only the two selectors change. Upload your own permitted photo and click Generate when ready; this button does not submit a task or spend credits.

Choose a useful starting photo

  • For a portrait or pet illustration, use a sharp photo with a recognizable subject. Choose comic, watercolor or flat art and the detail level.
  • For a family photo or object, avoid a crowded background. Use extra instructions to describe the colors or details you want to retain.
  • Review small faces and outlines before sharing. The result is one static PNG, not an animation, moving GIF or image generated from text alone.

How it works

  1. Upload a clear photo of a person, pet or object.
  2. Choose an illustration style and the amount of detail.
  3. Generate, check the subject and composition, then download the static image.

8 credits per generated image. One-time credit purchases; no subscription. Future images are without a watermark after a purchase.

Uploaded files and generated images are scheduled for deletion after 24 hours. Download your result before then.

Questions before you start

Can I create a cartoon from text without a photo?

Not with this tool. It transforms an uploaded photo. Extra instructions refine the edit but do not replace the required photo.

Does it animate the photo?

No. The result is one still PNG image. Comic, watercolor and flat-color are visual styles, not animation modes.
