Art Style Spectrum Under Character Consistency: From Realistic to Flat

Using a single character reference image as the visual anchor, ideogram-v3-character redraws the same character in a flat illustration style while keeping facial features, hairstyle, and clothing consistent. The core of the work lies in verifying whether "character lock" and "style shift" can hold simultaneously: the reference image provides a realistic character foundation, while the prompt pushes the rendering language toward vectorized hard-edged color blocks, simplified shadows, and a limited palette. It is suitable for character design sheets, multi-style extensions of brand mascots, storyboards, and social media series illustrations—scenarios that require reusing the same figure across images. In the schema, style is fixed to FICTION and rendering_speed is set to QUALITY, so that more details are preserved during stylized redrawing; expand_prompt is off to prevent MagicPrompt from diluting the style constraints.
