How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Drop your image into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Clear photos with your face and upper body visible work best. Standing poses give the most heroic results since the AI can add full costume details.

    Expect: Simple superhero outfit: 30-40 seconds. Detailed hero with powers and background: 45-60 seconds and may need refinements.
  2. Describe your superhero look

    Type what you want: 'transform this person into a superhero with a metallic blue suit, red cape, and glowing energy around their hands' or 'make me look like a comic book hero with armor and a dramatic city skyline background.' Be specific about the suit, powers, and setting. No marking needed—the AI understands superhero concepts.

    Tip: Include power effects like 'glowing eyes', 'lightning around hands', or 'energy aura' to make the superhero look dynamic and powerful.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Classic superhero with cape transform this person into a superhero wearing a metallic blue and red suit with a flowing red cape, heroic pose, city skyline background
    Armored tech hero make this person look like a tech superhero in sleek black and gold powered armor with glowing blue arc reactor on the chest
    Elemental powers hero transform this person into a superhero with fire powers - flames surrounding their hands and body, fireproof suit in orange and black
    Comic book style hero make this person into a comic book superhero with bold outlines, halftone dots, dynamic action pose, and speech bubble ready
    3 more prompts
    Dark vigilante transform this person into a dark vigilante hero with a black armored suit, mask covering the upper face, rooftop at night setting
    Space hero make this person into a cosmic space superhero with a glowing suit, energy aura, floating in space with stars and nebula behind
    Kid-friendly hero transform this person into a fun colorful superhero with a bright yellow and blue suit, friendly mask, and confident thumbs-up pose
  3. Review your superhero transformation

    Check that your face is preserved and recognizable in the superhero version. Verify that the suit looks cohesive, power effects are consistent, and the overall image looks like a genuine superhero portrait.

  4. Refine with markers if needed

    If specific areas like the suit design, cape, or power effects need adjustment, tap markers on those spots and regenerate. Most superhero transformations look impressive on the first try.

    Tip: Markers are for precision refinement only. Try without them first—you usually won't need them.

"Made superhero versions of my entire family for our holiday card. Dad got a cape, mom got laser eyes, the kids got matching sidekick outfits. The neighbors were jealous. Best holiday card we've ever sent." @SuperFamily_Ben

If something looks off

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

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly what to transform when the instruction was ambiguous about which parts should become heroic vs. stay the same.

Try: Tap markers on the specific areas you want transformed (like the torso for the suit), then regenerate with the same prompt

Tip: Markers tell the AI 'change THIS area specifically.' Use them to target just clothing or just the background.

Face doesn't look like me anymore

Why: The AI modified facial features to look more 'superhero-like' instead of just adding the costume and effects.

Try: keep my exact face and facial features unchanged, only add the superhero suit, cape, and power effects around my body

Tip: 'Keep my exact face unchanged' is the key phrase that protects your identity during the transformation.

Suit design looks generic or plain

Why: Vague descriptions lead to generic results. The AI needs specific details about materials, colors, and design elements.

Try: design a detailed superhero suit with [specific materials like 'carbon fiber texture'], [colors like 'deep blue with gold accents'], and [details like 'glowing chest emblem']

Tip: Material textures and accent details make superhero suits look premium rather than like painted spandex.

Power effects look fake or pasted on

Why: The AI generated effects as a separate layer instead of integrating them with the person and lighting.

Try: add realistic [power type] effects that interact with the lighting in the scene - [effects] should cast light and shadows on the suit and surrounding area

Tip: 'Cast light and shadows' makes power effects feel physically present rather than overlaid.

Background doesn't match the superhero theme

Why: The AI transformed the person but left the original mundane background, breaking the superhero illusion.

Try: transform into a superhero with [suit description] AND replace the background with [dramatic scene like 'city rooftop at sunset']

Tip: Always include a background description with your superhero prompt for a complete heroic scene.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark anything before creating a superhero version?

No! Just describe the superhero look: 'transform into a superhero with a red cape and metallic suit.' The AI detects the person and applies the transformation automatically. Only use markers if you want to change specific areas, like just the outfit without changing the background.

How do I create a superhero version of myself from a photo?

Upload a clear portrait to EditThisPic and describe your ideal superhero: 'make me a superhero with [suit color], [cape/no cape], [powers], and [background].' The AI preserves your face while adding the superhero elements in about 30 seconds. Include power effects and a dramatic background for the most impressive results.

Is there a free superhero maker that doesn't require login?

Yes, EditThisPic is free to try with no account needed. Upload your photo, describe the superhero transformation, and download the result. No watermarks. Create any hero style from classic capes to armored tech heroes.
