What should I prepare before starting?

Start with a description of the subject, composition, and visual style. Nano Banana 2 also accepts reference images for guidance; identify which details matter before generating.

How do I keep a reference person recognizable in chibi form?

Prioritize a few distinctive features such as hair, glasses, and clothing colors. Exaggerated proportions change the face, so compare the result with the reference rather than expecting a literal likeness.

Does generation use credits?

Generation uses credits. Check the selected model’s price and your plan before generating. Regenerating a variation also uses credits; review the first result before making more.

Shape the creative brief

Head-to-body balance

Choose the degree of stylization before adding detail.

Identity anchors

Keep a few defining hairstyle, outfit, or accessory features.

A readable pose

Use simple limbs and a clear expression suited to a small illustration.

Two prompts to start with

Use these written examples as a starting point. Adapt the subject and references to your project; generated results will vary.

First direction

Using my adult portrait as reference, create a cheerful chibi character with a large head, compact body, curly hair, round glasses, and a teal jacket. Full-body standing pose, plain cream background.

Another approach

Design an original chibi botanist holding a tiny watering can. Oversized head, simple expressive eyes, short green overalls, visible hands and feet, clean pastel illustration, no text.

Finishing the result

This creates a character image. Stickers, animation frames, and game assets need separate layout, cleanup, and production checks.
