Turn your ideas into vibrant illustrations and videos with Adobe Firefly.
Explore what’s possible with AI cartoon art. From bold cartoon characters and expressive styles to fully illustrated scenes, the examples below show how creators turn simple prompts and photos into cartoons.
From anime-style artworks and bold comics to expressive 3D cartoon looks, it’s easy to use Firefly as an AI cartoon generator for free. All you need is a simple prompt or a reference photo to begin transforming ideas into eye-catching AI cartoons.
There are many ways you can use Firefly to turn your ideas into cartoons. You can use Generate Image to describe and generate cartoon-style images and characters, and you can use Generate Video to generate animated cartoons. You can also start with a preexisting image, which you can transform into either static artwork or video.
The first step in AI cartoon generation is writing a detailed prompt. Use adjectives, like “bright colors” or describe the cartoon style you’re going for, like “the style of a 1950s comic book.” You can also turn photos into cartoons by uploading a reference image, such as a photograph or a sketch. Try turning a selfie into a playful cartoon character.
Whether you’re envisioning a flat illustration or a more dimensional 3D cartoon, the advanced customization options in the Firefly web app make it possible to get the exact look you want. Choose from Effects such as Cartoon, Anime, and Comic and further customize the appearance by choosing options from the Color and Tone, Lighting, and Camera Angle menus.
Your AI-generated cartoon artwork can have many applications. You could turn your cartoon images into social media avatars, branding assets, or custom designs for print and digital.
Firefly makes it possible to create cartoon art using a range of leading image models — all in one place. Choose from partner models like Midjourney, FLUX, Gemini, and more to experiment with different cartoon styles, levels of detail, and creative approaches — from simple hand-drawn cartoon styles to complex 3D cartoon aesthetics.
