Pixar Style AI Generator in Telegram

Attach a photo in a Telegram chat and get yourself back as a 3D animated movie character, or describe a character that does not exist yet and get it rendered in the same style. The bot is a Pixar style AI generator that works like any conversation: one message in, the finished image back in about a minute. Your first 5 credits are free, and there is no app to install.

A 3D cartoon AI that works in a chat

Most 3D cartoon generators are websites with a style gallery, a signup and a queue. Here you send one photo and one sentence, and the bot replies with the picture. If it is not right, you answer with the correction (“make the eyes a little smaller”, “keep the glasses”) and it edits its own result.

The look people call “Pixar style” or “Disney Pixar AI photo” is stylized 3D animation: slightly exaggerated proportions, big expressive eyes, soft skin that seems to glow where the light hits it, and warm cinematic lighting. The bot is not affiliated with Pixar or Disney, and it does not draw their characters. It makes original characters and 3D versions of your own photos in that general style.

What people use it for:

• Turn yourself into a Pixar character, from a selfie or any clear photo.
• Pets, kids and couples, the same trick applied to the people and animals in your camera roll.
• A 3D avatar for a Telegram, Discord or gaming profile.
• Original 3D characters for a story, a birthday card, a mascot or a children’s book idea.

How to turn your photo into a 3D animated character

1. Open the bot in Telegram and press Start.
2. Claim 5 free credits. Subscribe to @zosee_channel, then return to the bot and tap the claim button. The subscription alone grants nothing, the tap is what releases the credits. See the free credits page.
3. Choose NanoBanana Pro in the model menu and pick an aspect ratio: 3:4 for a portrait like the example above, 1:1 for an avatar.
4. Attach your photo and write the prompt as its caption. The photo and the instruction have to arrive in the same message. A photo on its own, or a prompt sent as a second message, will not be paired.

You can attach up to 4 photos at once. That is how you put a couple, or a person and their dog, into one 3D scene: attach both and say in the caption who stands where.

Pixar style AI prompts to paste

These are the exact prompts behind the examples on this page.

Your photo as a 3D animated character (the cafe portrait, attach your own photo):

Turn the person in the attached photo into a 3D animated movie character. Stylized 3D animation look with slightly exaggerated proportions, big expressive eyes, soft subsurface skin, detailed hair and knit textures, warm cinematic lighting. Keep his curly dark hair, beard, smile, mustard sweater and the cafe setting, and keep him clearly recognisable as the same person.

Swap the details in the last sentence for yours: your hair, your clothes, your glasses, your background. Naming what must survive is what keeps the result looking like you and not like a generic cartoon stranger.

An original 3D character from text (the lighthouse keeper):

3D animated movie still of an original character: a small elderly lighthouse keeper with a round belly, a bushy white beard and a knitted red hat, holding a brass lantern on a rocky pier at dusk, a chubby orange cat sitting beside his boots. Stylized 3D animation look with exaggerated proportions, big expressive eyes, soft subsurface skin, detailed wool and fur textures, warm cinematic lighting with a teal sky and glowing lantern light, shallow depth of field. No text.

Both prompts follow the same pattern: who the character is and where, then one or two sentences of 3D style. Keep the style half and change the subject, and you get a matching set. For a toy-like look rather than a film still, the “Collectible 3D figurine” entry in the art styles category is a good style sentence to borrow.

3D avatar from a selfie

A 3D avatar needs three things a full scene does not:

• A head and shoulders frame, so the face fills the circle instead of shrinking to a dot.
• A plain or softly blurred background, since the round crop cuts off the corners anyway.
• The 1:1 aspect ratio, picked in the menu before you send.

Add “head and shoulders, centered, plain soft gradient background” to the photo prompt above and you have a profile picture. The AI avatar generator page covers avatars in every other style, from realistic headshots to illustration.

Which model to pick for Pixar style images

• NanoBanana Pro is the one for your own face. It held the likeness best in our tests, beard and curls and clothes included, while still going fully 3D. 4 credits at 2K, 5 at 4K.
• Seedream is the one for invented characters. It is the most stylized of the five models and the freest with a playful prompt, 2 to 4 credits. On a real photo it pushes the cartoon further and the face drifts more.
• NanoBanana 2 is the cheaper middle ground for photo edits, 2 to 4 credits, when you want to try several ideas before committing.
• GPT-Image-2 is the one to use when the image needs readable text, for example a 3D character on a birthday card with a name on it. From 1 credit.

What it costs

1 to 6 credits per image depending on the model and resolution, and credits never expire. A 2K NanoBanana Pro edit of your photo is 4 credits, so the 5 free credits cover your first 3D portrait. Payment is Telegram Stars, cryptocurrency, a bank card from any country ($), or a Russian bank card (₽). The pricing page has the packs.

Tips for a better 3D cartoon

• Start from a good photo. Sharp, evenly lit, the whole face visible. A dark or blurred selfie gives the model less to keep.
• Say “3D animated movie character”, not just “cartoon”. “Cartoon” alone often comes back flat and hand-drawn.
• Describe the materials. “Soft subsurface skin”, “detailed wool and fur textures” and “cinematic lighting” are what make it read as a 3D render instead of a drawing.
• Name a feature to keep, not a film to copy. A named character is someone else’s design, and describing the look you want (big eyes, soft 3D skin, warm cinematic light) gives the model something it can apply to your own face instead.

Animate your 3D character

A 3D character looks like a frame from a film, so the natural next step is to make it move: the lantern flickering, the cat’s tail swaying, you raising the coffee cup and laughing. Our sister video bot, also in Telegram, does that part. Attach the image you made here and describe the motion in the caption of the same message. The photo costs nothing extra, only the seconds of video are billed.

Describe the movement rather than the picture, since the model can already see the frame (“slow push in, he looks up and smiles, steam rising from the cup”), and start with a short clip so the character stays close to your image. The full walkthrough is on the image to video in Telegram page.
