Transforming Friends into Studio Ghibli Characters

Categories: Art | Custom

I’ve always been a fan of Studio Ghibli movies, so I wanted to create some images in Ghibli-style. For my first test, I used some of my friend’s profile pictures. While the results were mostly spot-on, the AI sometimes gave them wardrobe upgrades or added slightly different smiles, different clothes or hair color. Still, each portrait beautifully captures my friends’ personalities. While more tweaking is needed to polish the details, I’m thrilled with the initial results.
