Feedback on Turntable Tool
The Turntable tool doesn’t seem to interpret my artwork accurately when generating new angles. For example:
- I drew a character with a backwards baseball cap, but when I rotated the generated view, sometimes the hat appeared facing forward instead of staying backwards.
- Important facial features didn’t carry through—both the lips and nose disappeared in the side view, instead of showing up the way you would normally draw a 2D character from the side.
- The line variation and overall quality of the original illustration didn’t hold up in the generated views.
While the tool is helpful for roughing out angles, I still need to redraw most of the art afterward in order to make it usable.
Additionally, when the artwork becomes editable, it breaks every shape up independently. In my original drawing, I build the art using overlapping layered shapes. After generating, I lost those layers, which makes it impossible to work with the art instantly. Instead, I have to redraw on top of the new generation and use it only as a reference, rather than being able to directly refine the output.
Suggestions for Improvement
- Consistency of details – Maintain character-specific features (e.g., hats, lips, noses, accessories) across all generated angles.
- Preserve line quality – Retain the same line weight, variation, and sharpness from the original illustration.
- Faithful 2D representation – Ensure side views generate facial features the way a 2D artist would naturally draw them.
- Layer preservation – Keep the same layered structure from the original artwork instead of breaking shapes apart, so artists can refine directly.
- Quality control – Improve the fidelity of generated views so they match the polish of the original art, reducing the need for redrawing.
