> Clone, One-shot or Face: which one fits what you have in hand

The mode you pick decides what the bar asks for. It does not lock the result: every model becomes a normal asset that any tool in Space can work on later.

|                | **Clone**                                                            | **One-shot**                                        | **Face**                        |
| -------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------- |
| **Start from** | 3 or more photos of one real object                                  | A prompt, a reference image, or a sketch            | One clear portrait photo        |
| **You get**    | An exact 3D twin, faithful to the photos                             | A quick model that matches the idea                 | A textured, rigged 3D head      |
| **Best for**   | Products, props, collectibles, things you own and want in 3D exactly | Concepts, placeholders, things that don't exist yet | Characters, avatars, likenesses |
| **Button**     | Clone it                                                             | Generate                                            | Make my head                    |
| **Cost**       | 4 credits on Max, 3 on Fast                                          | 1 credit                                            | 3 credits                       |

## Pick by what you have

* **A real thing in front of you** → Clone. Take the photos now, see [Photo best practices](/create/photo-best-practices).
* **Only one picture of it** → One-shot with the **Image** input. Clone needs several angles of the same object.
* **A drawing or a screenshot** → One-shot with the **Sketch** input. Clone declines sketches, see [When an input is not accepted](/create/not-accepted).
* **Just words** → One-shot with **Prompt**.
* **A person's face** → Face.

<Tip>Not sure between Clone and One-shot Image? One-shot costs 1 credit and takes a few minutes. Try it first, then Clone the object properly if you need it exact.</Tip>
