FAQ
What is 'selective colour' and how does the AI choose what to colour?
Selective colour is the Sin City signature: the image is mostly black and white, with one or two specific elements rendered in saturated colour for impact (typically red lips, blood, or a single object). The AI looks for natural focal points in your photo — bright accessories, lipstick, distinctive coloured items — and preserves their colour while desaturating everything else.
What kind of photo amplifies the noir effect best?
High-contrast photos with strong directional lighting (lamp, window, sunset) produce the deepest shadows and most dramatic Sin City atmosphere. Coloured accessories — red lipstick, a tie, sunglasses — give the AI clear targets for the selective colour pops. Avoid flat, evenly-lit photos; they convert to less dramatic results.
Can I use this without owning Sin City fan-art rights?
The output is a stylistic transformation in the visual language of graphic-novel noir, not a recreation of specific Sin City characters. For personal social posts and fan art it's standard fan-style usage. For commercial products, the safer framing is 'noir comic book style' rather than explicit Sin City branding.
