Keep it unmistakably the same subject and scene. For any people or animals keep the identical face shape, eye shape and spacing, nose, mouth, jawline, hairline and apparent age - do NOT beautify, do NOT slim the face, do NOT enlarge the eyes, do NOT smooth wrinkles. Keep the identical pose, framing, proportions and every object in place. Pure white paper, no colour anywhere, no text, no signature, no border.",

AI Photo to Line Drawing
Turn a photo into a line drawing in seconds. Upload a portrait, a pet or a place and get back clean line art, a shaded pencil sketch or a minimal fine-liner drawing - the same face and the same scene, drawn by hand.
Your photo, drawn - not reimagined
Likeness comes first.
- Same face, same ageFaces are redrawn with the same eye shape, nose, mouth and jawline. No slimming, no bigger eyes, no smoothed-out wrinkles.
- Same scenePose, framing and every object in the background stay where they were, so a line sketch from a photo still reads as that photo.
Three drawing styles
Line art, pencil or minimal.
- Line drawing and pencil sketchInk outlines with light hatching, or a graphite pencil sketch with cross-hatching and tone - switch between them on the same photo.
- Minimal line artThin single-weight outlines with no shading at all, for tattoo stencils, engraving, embroidery and cutting machines.
Clean output you can use
Print, trace or cut.
- Pure white paperBlack and grey lines on true white, with no colour cast, so the drawing prints cleanly and drops straight into a design.
- 1K or 2K1K for sharing and profile pictures, 2K when the line drawing is going to be printed, framed or traced.
