# Style Guide

Masking an area and writing the change you want to see is a powerful editing technique.

Style guide gives you the added ability to provide a reference to the change you want to see. It's great for more detailed texture driven editing. Using a reference image that is uploaded in STYLE GUIDE allows you to transform with greater control and intention and can take your results way beyond prompting alone. \
\
Great for adding texture. Creature design. Color and tonal adjustments. And character consistency.&#x20;
