Demo summary

The user selects the GPT Image 2 model in OpenArt, attaches the custom character, and uses a specific '@' prompt to generate a photorealistic reference image of himself as a samurai.

Step-by-step

Go to the image section and select the GPT Image 2 model
Navigate to the reference section and click on characters
Select the custom character you previously built
Enter your prompt in the prompt box, ensuring you use the @ symbol before the character's name
Set the aspect ratio to 16x9
Select the quality level (Low, Medium, or High)
Choose the number of images to generate (up to four)
Click Generate

Options

Select Low quality to test ideas at the cheapest price
Select Medium quality for a balance between speed and quality
Select High quality for the best possible reference image
Generate up to four images at once

Watch out for

You must use the @ symbol before the character's name in the prompt or the AI will guess the character and lose consistency

Tips

Use the GPT Image 2 model for the best photorealistic results
Use the 16x9 ratio to make the generation feel like a cinematic scene
