A converter should be simple to reason about: something goes in, something comes out. Here, one photo goes in and one doodle comes out. No queue of variations, no export settings — just a clean transform from picture to drawing.
Inside the conversion
The converter interprets your photo and rebuilds it in the house doodle style: heavy outlines, simplified shapes, flat color, warm-white ground. It keeps the parts that make the subject recognizable and lets go of texture, which is the whole reason a doodle looks hand-drawn instead of photocopied.
Feeding the converter well
One clearly lit subject, facing the camera, plus a short prompt:
Convert to a doodle. Keep the afro and the gold hoops. Flat color, no text, warm-white background.
Named features guide the converter better than long descriptions.

Why does the converter simplify my photo so much?
Because a doodle is meant to be simple. The converter drops fine detail on purpose and keeps identifying features, which is what makes the output read as drawn rather than filtered.
Can the converter output a print or a video?

What if the converter misses a detail?
Name it in your next prompt — 'keep the mustache' — and convert again. Each image is 1 credit and failed runs refund.
