Style & Consistency
Lock in a look — and keep the same character across a whole set of images.

The big idea
One-off images are easy; the trick is making a set that belongs together. Style references let you carry one consistent look across many images, and character consistency keeps the same person or creature recognisable from scene to scene. And a single subject can be rendered in dozens of mediums — from woodcut to watercolour — just by asking.
Key insight: References are how you go from lucky one-offs to a consistent, professional-looking body of work.
Same look, same character
A style reference holds the mood steady; the explorer is the same character across different scenes; and one pear becomes any medium you like.
