Change expression redraws a character or product with a new mood while keeping who or what it is.
Three items on the Workbench. Left, a new Modify block showing its list (Describe your changes, Instant Render, New view, Change expression) with the pointer on Change expression, marked 1. In the middle, a red chair render connected to a Change expression block on the right. In that block, callouts mark 2 the arc dial with the angry face, 3 the label Angry and 4 the Generate button.

Change expression in the list (1), dial (2), expression (3), Generate (4).

On products, Happy tends to round edges, Angry to sharpen geometry, and Custom words like “tactical” or “industrial” steer the design language.

Tips

  • Connect the same original for every expression. Chaining results drifts away from the character.
  • Use a clear, front-facing face on a plain background.
  • If too much changes, prompt a Describe your changes block: “Change only the facial expression to surprised. Keep the face, hair, outfit and pose the same.”
