Source image checklist

  • Use a sharp source image with the main subject clearly visible.
  • Avoid heavy blur, blocked details, extreme crops, or confusing overlaps.

Mention any details that must stay recognizable, such as clothing, pose, colors, accessories, or objects.

Review before you use the image

Treat the result as a visual draft. If the clay effect changes important details too much, try a clearer source image or a more specific prompt.

Check likeness and structure

Compare the output with the source image to make sure the person, pose, action silhouette, clothing, accessories, and key colors still read clearly.

Review the style consistency

Look for a coherent Clay Art treatment across the whole image, including matte surfaces, rounded forms, handcrafted marks, and warm stop-motion styling.

Inspect small details

Inspect faces, hands, text, edges, small props, hair, and background transitions. Generated details can vary, so review the image before using it in a post, mockup, reference, or draft.
