Live Painting
Sketch live and watch AI render your drawing in real time using your models, prompts and masks for fast concept art.
Key benefits
Instant rendering
Live Painting transforms rough sketches into rendered images in under a second, providing immediate feedback for rapid ideation
Works with any model
Choose from your library of custom or built-in models to maintain consistent style and characters
Dynamic dual-screen interface
Draw on the left canvas while seeing AI-generated results update in real time on the right; use the sidebar for brushes, erasers, masks and a color picker
Prompt Spark & refinement
Enter a prompt to guide the AI, then expand or refine it with Prompt Spark; adjust influence sliders to balance sketch precision and AI creativity
Targeted inpainting & variations
Mask specific areas to edit them without affecting the rest of the image; generate alternative versions using the Variation button
Integrated enhancement & export
Enhance the final artwork for higher quality or export it to other Scenario tools (Canvas, Image-to-Image, Enhance) to polish and save your assets
How it works
- 1
Launch Live & select a model
Access Live from the main menu, a model page or within Canvas. Load your desired model — whether it's a style model or a character model.
- 2
Start sketching
Use the sketch tool to draw on a blank canvas or import an image. Adjust brush size and color, sample colors with the dropper, and draw simple shapes or color patches. Your sketch instantly appears as a rendered image on the right.
- 3
Guide with prompts
Enter a prompt to describe your desired result. Use Prompt Spark for suggestions and expand or refine your prompt. Refine the prompt as you add or remove elements from your sketch.
- 4
Control influence & variations
Adjust the Influence slider to decide how closely the AI follows your sketch: higher values adhere more to your drawing, while lower values give the AI more freedom.
- 5
Inpaint & refine
Transfer your output to the canvas and use masking tools to isolate sections. Sketch within masked areas and reapply your prompt to edit only those regions.
- 6
Enhance & export
Use Scenario Enhance to upscale or adjust your final artwork. Save your image to collections or transfer it to other Scenario workflows like Canvas or Image-to-Image for further refinement.
