Load one photo of a person, and MiniMax H3 draws a character sheet: the same person from the front, the three-quarter view, the side and the back, side by side in one picture. If your photo leaves something out, like the legs in a half-body photo, a box lets you name it, and the views show it. Switches make it faster, make it twice as big with SeedVR2, save each view as its own picture, put your photo beside the sheet, add a row of head close-ups or four expressions under it, or redraw each view at twice the size.It's in my new video: <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://youtu.be/GociGWQQDSs">I threw a ton of edits at Qwen Image 2.1, FLUX 3 Klein and FIBO 2</a><h3 id="how-to-use-it">How to use it</h3><ol><li>Load your picture: one person, clearly in view.</li><li>Optional: type a background, like "a neon city street at night".

MiniMax H3 Character Sheet | Turnaround From One Photo

Redraw each view replaces Redraw the faces, and the body edge no longer blurs at the chest.
The old switch redrew only the top of the sheet and blended it back in around the chest, which left a soft, doubled edge there, and the rest of the body stayed the first draft. The new switch redraws each of the four views whole, at twice the size, so faces, hair and clothes come out sharp from head to toe. About 3 minutes more. The sheet comes out 6144 × 3072, and with Close-ups under the sheet on, 6144 × 4608.
YouTube and Discord links now sit above the note.
