# Qwen-Image Layered

IMAGEFeaturedqwen-qwen-image-layered

**Qwen-Image Layered** allows users to generate images with multiple distinct layers, enabling advanced compositional control and flexibility in post-processing. This model is particularly useful for artists and designers who want to create complex scenes with separate elements that can be independently edited or animated. By providing layered outputs, it opens up new possibilities for dynamic content creation, such as animated graphics, interactive media, and detailed visual storytelling.

Best for

Images delivered as separately editable layers, Compositions you plan to animate or remix later
