How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Upload a sharp photo of the vehicle from a clear angle. Natural daylight and minimal reflections help the AI handle caricature accurately. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Simple caricature: 30-40 seconds. Detailed scene caricature: 45-60 seconds and may need exaggeration adjustments.
  2. Describe the caricature style

    Type your instruction: 'create a caricature with a big head, exaggerated nose, and humorous grin' or 'make a funny caricature emphasizing the eyes and smile.' Specify which features to exaggerate—nose, eyes, ears, chin. No marking needed—the AI finds the face automatically.

    Tip: Specify the level of exaggeration: 'slightly exaggerated' for subtle humor or 'wildly exaggerated' for maximum comedy.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Classic fun caricature create a caricature from this photo with an oversized head, exaggerated facial features, and a humorous expression
    Boardwalk-style caricature turn this photo into a boardwalk caricature with a tiny body, huge head, and comically large eyes and grin
    Subtle editorial caricature create a subtle editorial-style caricature that slightly exaggerates the most distinctive facial features
    Bobblehead style turn this photo into a bobblehead-style caricature with a massive round head on a tiny body in a fun pose
    3 more prompts
    Celebrity roast style create a roast-style caricature that playfully exaggerates the most prominent features like nose, chin, and forehead
    Cute chibi caricature make a cute chibi-style caricature with an adorably oversized head, huge sparkly eyes, and a tiny body
    Couple caricature create a fun caricature of both people in this photo with matching exaggerated style and humorous expressions
  3. Review the caricature

    Check that the person is still recognizable despite the exaggeration. The best caricatures amplify distinctive features while keeping the likeness. Verify the humor hits the right tone—fun, not unflattering.

  4. Refine with markers if needed

    If certain features need more or less exaggeration, tap markers on those areas and regenerate with adjusted instructions. Want a bigger nose? Tap the nose and say 'exaggerate this feature more.'

    Tip: Markers are for precision refinement only. Try without them first—the AI usually nails the caricature in one go.

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong area or something I didn't want changed

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which features to exaggerate from description alone. This happens with vague instructions.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific feature you want exaggerated, then regenerate with the same prompt

Tip: Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS feature specifically.' Use them when you want targeted exaggeration.

Caricature is too extreme and doesn't look like the person

Why: The AI applied maximum exaggeration, distorting the face beyond recognition.

Try: create a subtle caricature that slightly exaggerates features while keeping the person clearly recognizable

Tip: Use intensity words: 'slightly', 'moderately', or 'wildly' exaggerated to control the level.

Caricature isn't exaggerated enough—looks too realistic

Why: The AI was too conservative with the exaggeration, producing a result closer to a portrait than a caricature.

Try: create a wildly exaggerated caricature with a much bigger head, amplified nose and chin, and comedic proportions

Tip: Pile on the exaggeration words: 'wildly', 'comically', 'absurdly' push the AI toward bolder caricature.

Wrong features got exaggerated

Why: The AI chose to amplify features that weren't the most distinctive, making the caricature feel off.

Try: create a caricature focusing on exaggerating the [specific feature: eyes/nose/chin/forehead] while keeping other features normal

Tip: Name the exact features you want exaggerated. The AI exaggerates what you mention most prominently.

Result looks mean-spirited rather than fun

Why: Certain exaggeration choices can make a caricature feel unflattering instead of playful.

Try: create a lighthearted, friendly caricature with a warm smile and playful exaggeration that feels fun, not mocking

Tip: Words like 'lighthearted', 'friendly', and 'fun' steer the AI toward positive, affectionate caricature.
