How it works

Upload your photo

Drop your image into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Clear face photos work best for caricatures. Front-facing portraits with visible facial features produce the funniest results.

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

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.
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

Try This →

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

Try This →

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

Try This →

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

Try This →

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

Try This →

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