Cartoon yourself — from your own locked avatar
One selfie becomes a locked avatar. Then step into any cartoon style — big-eyed 3D animated-movie hero, soft painterly anime, retro 90s cel or handmade claymation — as a moving clip, not just a filtered photo. Every clip is painted from your locked avatar.

Filters all look the same
Every app pushes you through the same one-tap cartoon filter, and the result looks like everyone else’s. There’s no style range and no motion — just a static, samey picture.
Commissioned art is slow and dear
A hand-drawn cartoon portrait takes days and real money per revision. If you want yourself in three different styles, you’re paying three times and waiting three times.
AI tools lose your likeness
Generic image generators produce "someone a bit like you". Change the style and the face drifts. Friends should recognise you instantly — otherwise what’s the point?
Four steps. A few minutes. You’re in.
Scan once
Take one guided selfie scan. DittoPix builds your locked DittoAvatar — you approve it before anything is generated.
Pick a style
Choose a cartoon template — 3D movie hero, soft painterly anime meadow, 90s anime opening, comic-book splash or claymation.
Generate
The engine paints the scene from your locked avatar. Stills or short animated clips.
Share
Export in 9:16 for TikTok, Instagram and YouTube Shorts — clean and watermark-free — or grab the still as an image.
Why this works on DittoPix
✦ Locked avatar — one reference, every style
Scan once and reuse it: whichever style you pick, the cartoon is painted from the same locked avatar. Stylised looks are not face-checked, so you approve the result.
✦ A real range of styles
3D animated-feature, hand-painted anime, retro cel with VHS grain, halftone comic and stop-motion clay — each a full art-directed template.
✦ Moving clips, not just stills
Cartoon templates render as short animated clips — a blink, a smile, wind in the grass — far more shareable than a static filter.
✦ Priced per creation
Images cost from 3 credits; animated clips cost more and show their exact price before you confirm. No subscription — pay as you go.
✦ Consent-safe by design
Use only your own face, or one you have permission to use — you confirm consent each time you scan a face, we refuse requests for named living people, and you can report misuse.
✦ Social-ready export
Everything exports in 9:16 vertical, sized for TikTok, Instagram and YouTube Shorts, with a share page for every creation.
Pick a scene. You’re already in it.
Common questions
Will the cartoon actually look like me?
You scan your face once to create your locked DittoAvatar. After approval it is the reference every image, short film and animation that casts you is painted from. Photoreal avatar renders are identity-checked against it; stylised looks such as cartoons are not face-checked, and a likeness can still vary between results, so review each one before you share it.
Do I have to upload a photo every time?
No — that’s the point. You scan once, approve your DittoAvatar, and every future cartoon, image or short film reuses it. Switching styles never means re-uploading.
How much does it cost?
An image costs from 3 credits and cinematic short vertical films start from around 35 credits — you always see the exact cost before anything is spent, and failed renders are refunded automatically. You get 130 free credits when you sign up, plus 5 free credits every day once your email is verified. No card needed. Paid plans open soon — pay-as-you-go packs from £4.99, no subscription.
Can I cartoon my friend or partner?
Not as your avatar — a DittoAvatar is for your own face. Use only your own face, or one you have permission to use — you confirm consent each time you scan a face, we refuse requests for named living people, and you can report misuse.
