“Create a 1/7 scale commercialized figurine of the characters in the picture, in a realistic style, in a real environment. The figurine is placed on a computer desk. The figurine has a round transparent acrylic base with no text on the base. The content on the computer screen is a 3D modeling process of this figurine. Next to the computer screen is a toy packaging box, designed in a style reminiscent of high-quality collectible figures, printed with original artwork. The packaging features two-dimensional flat illustrations.”

Important Things to Remember When Generating Images From Gemini
While the new AI model is great for having fun and bringing your ideas to life, it’s also important to be considerate and careful. Some of the important things to remember here are:
- Do not alter celebrities’ photos with Gemini it may put you in trouble
- Respect people’s privacy and do not create misleading images of people.
- Do not misuse the AI image generation feature to create wrong or exposed images.
- Do not remove the watermark of Gemini if you’re uploading the image. This helps people and platforms to understand that the images are not real and are AI-generated.
