Splatoon OC Maker – Create Your Inkling or Octoling

Start by choosing an Inkling or Octoling, then work out the details that make your character recognizable—tentacle hairstyle, ink color, outfit, and weapon. Enter your ideas into our Splatoon OC maker, using character tags or a prompt like "an Octoling with short coral tentacles, amber eyes, a black windbreaker, white sneakers, and a Splat Roller." Pick your preferred art style and generate. If something doesn't look quite right, refine your description and try again.

Yes, both are possible. Simply specify Inkling or Octoling in your description, along with their defining features. Inklings are squid-inspired, while Octolings have octopus-inspired characteristics, including distinctive tentacle shapes and eye markings. You can also explore hairstyles and outfit combinations beyond the game's preset options. Keep in mind that the result is character artwork, not a playable avatar you can import into Splatoon 3.

Yes. Use character tags to set basic features, then add more specific details through your prompt. Instead of asking for a "cool Octoling," try "long teal tentacles swept over one eye, golden eyes, an oversized black hoodie, white high-tops, and purple headphones." For unusual features like mismatched eyes or asymmetrical tentacles, describe them separately to give the generator a better chance of getting them right.

Yes. Choose a vertical aspect ratio like 3:4 and request a "full-body, head-to-toe character illustration." Specify that both shoes, the complete outfit, and the entire weapon should be visible. If the result is cropped, try adding "camera pulled back, full character in frame, no cropping" and simplify the pose. A plain background also makes the finished image easier to use as a character reference.

Of course. For a Splatoon PFP that works well on Discord or social media, choose a square 1:1 format and a centered head-and-shoulders portrait. Leave some space around the tentacle hairstyle and headgear, as circular profile pictures can cut off details near the corners. A simple background with good color contrast will also help your character stand out at smaller sizes.

Yes, Try OC Maker is free to try. New users receive 40 free credits after signing up. The standard OC Maker currently costs 10 credits per generation, giving you approximately four attempts with your starting balance. Each new generation uses credits, including versions made with revised prompts. You can check the cost before generating and purchase additional credits whenever you need more.

Once your character appears in the Generated Results area, open the image and use the download option to save it. Before downloading, check that the composition suits its purpose—a clear, centered face for a PFP or a complete head-to-toe view for character references. On mobile devices, downloaded images may appear in your browser's Downloads folder or Files app rather than your photo gallery.

Yes. Upload an existing OC drawing, an in-game screenshot, or a sketch you own or have permission to use. The image serves as a visual reference, so you can focus on what needs updating rather than describing the entire character again. Try changing the outfit or pose while specifying which features to preserve, such as the tentacle shape, eye color, and ink color. For multiple redesigns, return to the original reference to reduce unwanted changes between versions.

You can make targeted edits, although exact consistency isn't guaranteed. Upload your original OC image and give a focused instruction, such as "Replace the black jacket with a green hoodie. Keep the face, tentacle hairstyle, eye color, pose, and background unchanged." Since AI generates a new image rather than editing a fixed layer, small differences may still appear. For pixel-perfect changes, a layer-based image editor is the better choice.

Yes, if you're looking for 3D-style character artwork. Choose an available 3D art style or try a prompt like "stylized 3D Splatoon-inspired Octoling, full-body game render, curled tentacle hair, oversized streetwear, three-quarter view, clean background." Add your preferred ink colors, accessories, and weapon for a more personalized result. The output is a 2D image with a 3D appearance, not an editable or rigged model for Blender or Source Filmmaker.
