What Are Character Pose Packs?

Character Pose Packs transform a single character description into a complete set of images showing the same character in different:

Inconsistent Appearance

Wrong Emotion

  • Emotion names are interpreted broadly
  • "Confused" might look "thinking" - regenerate if needed
  • Add emotion keywords to character description

Poor Quality

  • Use photorealistic style for best results
  • Avoid cartoon styles - harder to maintain consistency
  • Ensure lighting is specified ("even lighting", "soft light")

Background Issues

  • Transparent backgrounds may have minor edges - use cutout tools if needed
  • Solid color backgrounds are cleanest
  • Custom backgrounds may affect character consistency
