Frame the camera
Look through the scene camera (Numpad 0) and frame the shot. Keep the camera level for straight verticals.

Before you start
Prepare your Blender viewport render
Cycles can render anything, but lighting, materials and sample times add up during design. Grab a fast Workbench or viewport image, describe the look you are after and develop it in RenderChat, then decide which direction deserves a full Blender render.
Use clean solid shading
Solid shading with Cavity and Shadow enabled gives the AI form and light cues without distracting colors.
Export the image
View ▸ Viewport Render Image, or render with the Workbench engine, and save a PNG 2000 px or wider.

Prepare your Blender viewport render
Frame the camera, use clean solid shading and export the image. The checklist above has the details.
Open RenderChat with GPT Image 2
The start button on this page opens a new chat with GPT Image 2 selected. You can also pick it from the model menu in the composer.
Upload and write the brief
Attach the image and say what must stay, then the materials, light, setting and people. Start from an example brief below.
Refine in chat
Ask for changes in follow-up messages. GPT Image 2 continues the same conversation, so a short instruction such as "warmer light, keep everything else" is enough.
Download the render
Download the image at the resolution you chose (1K).
Example briefs
Blender briefs to start from
Copy a brief, paste it into RenderChat with your Blender viewport render, and change the materials and mood to match your project.
Photoreal interior render of this Blender scene. Keep the furniture layout and camera. Wide-plank oak floor, white plaster walls, boucle armchair, large window with soft morning light, a few books and plants.
Photoreal exterior render of this Blender model. Keep the form and camera. Charred timber cladding, black window frames, forest setting with mist, early morning light.
GPT Image 2 in RenderChat
Working with GPT Image 2
OpenAI's GPT Image 2, run in RenderChat as a native conversation through OpenAI's Responses API, so follow-ups continue the same image thread.
- Useful as a comparison point against GPT Image 2.5 on the same model view.
- Keep one design change per message so you can tell which instruction moved the image.
Quality check
What to check before you share it
- Furniture positions and proportions against the scene.
- Window frames and other thin parts.
- Reflections on glass and polished floors — describe what should be reflected.

FAQ
GPT Image 2 Blender questions
Is GPT Image 2 available on the free plan?
GPT Image 2 is available on the Pro plan. On the Free plan you can use GPT Image 2.5 and Nano Banana 2.1.
What resolution does GPT Image 2 render at?
GPT Image 2 renders at 1K in RenderChat, with auto + 10 fixed ratios.
Can I keep refining a GPT Image 2 result in chat?
Yes. GPT Image 2 runs as a native conversation in RenderChat, so each follow-up continues from the previous turn. Short edit instructions work well.
How do I select GPT Image 2 in RenderChat?
Use the start button on this page — it opens a new chat with GPT Image 2 selected — or choose it from the model menu in the chat composer.
Why not just render in Cycles?
Do, when the image is final. RenderChat is for the stage before that: testing materials, light and mood quickly without setting up shaders and lights for each idea.
Should I export with materials or without?
Either. Plain solid shading gives the AI the most freedom; viewport materials steer it toward colors you already chose.
Try GPT Image 2 on your Blender viewport render.
