Can a 30 second doodle really become something you'd ship? 🤨 Apparently with ChatGPT the answer is yes...

I went in skeptical: rough sketch, no love, ran it through the new Images 2.5 model and this came back. Lighting and depth nailed almost instantly, some details still needed a couple markup edits before it felt really good! ✏️

It makes me think, where's the line between a helpful shortcut and cutting corners?

Perfectly realistic

What does sketch to shippable actually look like in real time? 🎥

Honestly, I went in doubting it, and came out convinced, for early concepting at least. 🤔 I recorded the whole process, doodle to final.

Calling all desginers to run it on your own idea and drop the result below. Here's the prompt I edited, templated so you can run it on your own campaign:

"Create an original artwork inspired by the attached sketch. [describe your product: material, finish, colors, depth]. Main focus on [your hero element]. Do not preserve exact strokes or shapes. Boldly reimagine its forms, proportions, colors, materials, and details. Never trace or retain the original lines, integrate their ideas naturally through texture, lighting, and color. For simple sketches, invent a richer interpretation. Ask me about preferred artistic style with a few options."

Where does it hold up, where does it break? 👀

omg ... you just gave me the BEST idea to play around with on my ipad mini with my apple pencil hehe, this is 🔥
