Photo to LEGO-Style Art: Choose Your Image Workflow
A portrait turned into brick-style art and a model photo turned into assembly steps are different jobs. Choose the result below. BrickGPT starts with a finished brick-model image and makes a visual steps board and assembly video; it does not promise to turn any photo into a verified buildable set.

| Your starting image | Your goal | Recommended next step |
|---|---|---|
| Portrait, pet, landscape or everyday object | A brick-style illustration or concept render. | Use an image generator or editor with relevant examples; specify the subject and visual style. |
| A photo or render of a finished brick model | A visual steps board and assembly video. | Compare BrickGPT examples, prepare the image and review the generated assets. |
| Any reference image | A set you can build with an exact parts list. | Plan a digital or physical reconstruction and validate the parts and connections. |
If you need a brick-style concept image
In an image editor, keep the main subject and ask for a complete toy-brick model with recognizable studs and plates, a plain background and even lighting. Inspect the resulting shape before treating it as a model reference. The image may contain invented parts or connections.
For a new car, mech or building concept, the prompt guide provides three complete templates and specific changes for cropped, shadowed or cluttered results. These templates belong in your image generator before the BrickGPT image workflow.
If you already have a finished model image
Keep the complete model in frame and remove packaging, hands and unrelated objects where possible. Compare the source image with the example board and video below. The board is a visual sequence, not a parts inventory or CAD export.

If you need parts and buildable instructions
Do not use a decorative parts-layout image as a shopping list. To reconstruct a model, identify real parts, validate connections and record the assembly order. For an existing LEGO set, its set number is a better starting point than an AI image conversion.
