How do AI Sketch Generators work?
AI Sketch Generators use deep-learning models trained on large datasets of drawings and illustrations. When you describe a sketch, the model picks the subject, pose, and medium, then renders lines and shading naturally. With Higgsfield, you pick which model powers each sketch.

How do I write a good sketch prompt?
Be specific about the subject, medium, and mood, for example: a vintage motorcycle parked on a cobbled street, pen-and-ink with light wash.
