# Character Sheet: a full turnaround from one image

> Turn one character image into a reference sheet with a face close-up, front, three-quarter, side, and back views, and detail panels, then save it as a Character.

Turn one image of a character into a full reference sheet: a large face close-up, front, three-quarter, side, and back views, and close-ups of the hair, the outfit, and the most distinctive detail. Every panel shows the same character in the style of the image you added, and you can save the sheet as a Character.

## What Character Sheet is for

* One reference that holds a character from every angle, for consistent generations
* Turnaround views to draw or model from, for comics and games
* Trying a costume idea in every view before you commit to it

## How to use Character Sheet

**1. Add a character image**

Upload a JPEG or PNG up to 30 MB, drop it on the page, or pick one of your
creations.

**2. Add details, if you like**

Under Details, list accessories, clothing, or features to add as short
phrases, such as "a silver circlet, a long red cape". Leave it empty to keep
the character exactly as shown.

**3. Make the sheet**

The price in Gems shows on the Make Sheet button. The sheet lands in
History; press Create Character to save it with an `@handle`, or download,
share, or remix it.

## Tips

* A full-body image in a simple pose gives the best sheet, because every view has to repeat the outfit, shoes, and build.
* The style carries over: a photo gives a sheet of photos, and an illustration gives an illustrated sheet.
* A sheet saved as a [Character](https://docs.mage.space/features/characters.md) gives later generations more to work from than a single portrait.

## Limitations

* From a portrait, the sheet has to invent everything below the shoulders.
* Each sheet is priced in Gems. The price depends on the model and resolution.
