If your phone is full of photos of your dog, cat, or other furry friend, you’re not alone. But here’s a fun idea you may not have tried yet: turning your pet into a royal king or queen using AI.
Imagine your Labrador as a Tudor king…
Your Minature Schnauzer as an Elizabethan queen…
Your Spaniel in full Renaissance robes…
With AI tools like ChatGPT, you can create stunning, hilarious, or completely majestic pet portraits in just a few minutes—even if you’ve never used AI before.
This beginner-friendly guide will show you exactly how to do it step-by-step, and how to turn your finished masterpiece into a beautifully printed or framed gift with PostSnap—perfect for Christmas.
1. What You Need (Just Your Phone!)
You don’t need any special software or artistic skill.
All you need is:
- A photo of your pet
- A phone, tablet, or computer
- Access to ChatGPT (you can use the mobile app or website)
That’s it.
You won’t be editing anything yourself—the AI creates the artwork for you.
2. Start With a Clear Photo
Although ChatGPT creates a brand-new image, it helps to keep a photo of your pet in mind so you can describe them accurately.
Look for features like:
- Colour and length of fur
- Size and shape of ears
- Markings or unique spots
- Their personality (playful, serious, proud, goofy)
These are the details you’ll mention shortly.
3. What is a “Prompt”? (Simple Explanation)
A prompt is just the text you type into ChatGPT telling it what you want it to create.
Think of a prompt like giving instructions to a very talented artist:
- you describe the style
- the outfit
- the setting
- and what your pet looks like
The more detail you include, the better the final picture.
So don’t worry—no technical language is needed.
4. Craft the Perfect Royal Prompt
Here’s an example you can copy and paste. Simply change the dog breed and any details you prefer:
Example Prompt:
“Create an oil painting in the style of a Renaissance masterpiece. The subject is a Black Miniature Schnauzer dressed as a king. He is wearing an ornate gold crown with jewels and a deep red velvet robe with white ermine fur trim. The lighting is dramatic and moody, similar to 17th-century Dutch portraits. Please make the painting detailed, regal, and realistic.”
You can adjust:
- “king” → “queen”
- “Renaissance” → “Elizabethan”, “Victorian”, or “Baroque”
- “oil painting” → “watercolour”, “cartoon”, “pop art”
Have fun experimenting!
5. Your AI-Generated Masterpiece
After you type in your prompt, ChatGPT will generate your royal artwork in seconds.
You might get:
- Dramatic lighting
- Rich fabrics
- Jewel-studded crowns
- Period-accurate clothing
- A perfect match to your pet’s face, markings, and expression
Once you’re happy with the result, save the image to your phone.
6. Create a Queen Variant (Optional)
If you prefer a queenly look, try this style:
- Elizabethan clothing
- Large ruff collars
- Pearls
- Embroidered gowns
- Softer lighting with less shadow
For example:
“Create an Elizabethan-style portrait of my pet as a queen wearing a pearl-studded gown and a lace ruff collar. Soft lighting, lots of fine detail.”
Each art style gives a very different mood—try several until you find the perfect one.
