Textoon: Generating Vivid 2D Cartoon Characters from Text Descriptions
The 2D cartoon style is a prominent art form in digital character creation,
particularly popular among younger audiences. While advancements in digital
human technology have spurred extensive research into photorealistic digital
humans and 3D characters, interactive 2D cartoon characters have received
comparatively less attention. Unlike 3D counterparts, which require
sophisticated construction and resource-intensive rendering, Live2D, a
widely-used format for 2D cartoon characters, offers a more efficient
alternative, which allows to animate 2D characters in a manner that simulates
3D movement without the necessity of building a complete 3D model. Furthermore,
Live2D employs lightweight HTML5 (H5) rendering, improving both accessibility
and efficiency. In this technical report, we introduce Textoon, an innovative
method for generating diverse 2D cartoon characters in the Live2D format based
on text descriptions. The Textoon leverages cutting-edge language and vision
models to comprehend textual intentions and generate 2D appearance, capable of
creating a wide variety of stunning and interactive 2D characters within one
minute. The project homepage is https://human3daigc.github.io/Textoon_webpage/.
