Before going to any freelance platform, you must prepare a clear, controlled portfolio based on ONE Higgsfield character.
What to generate for portfolio (exact set)
Generate 10–12 images of the SAME character:
- 3 portraits
- 3 half-body images
- 3 full-body images
- 1–3 lifestyle images
Do not experiment with styles.
Image format
- Vertical (4:5 or 3:4)
- High resolution
- No watermarks
- Neutral backgrounds preferred
Folder structure (recommended)

Step 11. Choose a Freelance Platform (What Actually Works)
For AI character work, only two platforms are consistently reliable:
- Upwork
- Fiverr
Social media is optional.
Freelance platforms are the fastest path to paid work.
Step 12. Create an Upwork Profile (Exact Setup)
12.1 Registration
- Go to upwork.com
- Sign up as Freelancer
- Choose categories:
- Design & Creative
- Generative AI / AI Content
12.2 Profile Title (copy exactly)
AI Character Designer | Realistic AI Humans & Digital Avatars
12.3 Profile Overview (copy & paste)
I create custom AI-generated human characters with consistent identity and realistic proportions.
All characters are fictional and created using licensed AI tools.
I provide high-quality images for brands, creators, and digital projects.
Services include:
– AI character creation
– Consistent image generation
– Custom visual styles
⚠️ Do NOT mention:
- model files
- training
- LoRA
- weights
You sell visual results, not technology.
12.4 Portfolio Upload
Upload your 10–12 images.
For each project description, use:
Custom AI-generated character created for a fictional brand concept.
This is legally safe and standard.
Step 13. How to Get Your First Freelance Jobs
Search terms that WORK on Upwork
Use these exact keywords:
- AI character
- AI model
- AI human
- AI avatar
- AI influencer
Avoid:
- “stable diffusion”
- “LoRA”
- “training”
Clients don’t search for technical terms.
Proposal template (short, effective)
Hi!
I specialize in creating realistic AI-generated characters with consistent identity.
I can create a fictional AI character tailored to your project needs.
Let me know your requirements and preferred style.
Short proposals convert better.
Step 14. How You Actually Create a Client Project
This is the real workflow, no theory.
Step-by-step client delivery
- Client explains the goal (brand, content, visuals)
- You define:
- age range
- vibe
- style
- You create or reuse a Higgsfield Character
- You generate images using controlled prompts
- You manually review results
- You deliver images to the client
Step 15. What You Deliver to the Client (CRITICAL)
You deliver:
- JPG / PNG images
- agreed quantity
- agreed resolution
You DO NOT deliver:
- Higgsfield account access
- Character itself
- Any “model file”
Correct wording in delivery:
Custom AI-generated character visuals created specifically for your project.
This avoids legal and platform issues.
Step 16. Fiverr Setup (Alternative Platform)
Gig title
I will create a realistic AI character or digital human for your project
Gig description (safe and effective)
I create custom AI-generated human characters with consistent identity.
All characters are fictional and created using licensed AI tools.
You receive high-quality images ready for commercial use.
Pricing structure (realistic)
| Package | Price | Included |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | $50 | 10 images |
| Standard | $150 | 30 images |
| Premium | $400+ | 80–100 images |
Underpricing attracts bad clients.
Step 17. Legal Safety (What You Must Follow)
You must ALWAYS ensure:
- Characters are fictional
- No real people used without written permission
- You sell images, not AI models
- You do not claim exclusivity unless agreed
This is enough to stay safe on freelance platforms.
Final Result: Complete Workflow
After completing all steps, you have:
- a stable Higgsfield character
- a clean portfolio
- a freelance-ready profile
- a clear delivery workflow
- a legally safe service
This is a complete, real-world pipeline from Higgsfield to paid freelance work.
