I just found a way to create both colored and uncolored versions of the SAME image in Midjourney.

This is perfect for making coloring books.

Here's how: Image
First use this prompt:

On the left, a black and white simple children's coloring book illustration featuring a [X] with no shading, with a white background. On the right, the same illustration with color. --ar 2:1 --style raw --sref [see image below] --stylize 250 --v 6
Next, use this image as a style reference.

It makes the prompt much more consistent. Image
And that's it!

Change the "X" in the prompt above to whatever subject you like.

Here's a "boy riding a bicycle".

You don't have to change the reference image for each generation. Just use the same one. Image
An extra benefit of using the same image as the style reference:

The style of all your coloring pages will be consistent.

This is important to make your own coloring books.

Character consistency is a big problem when making AI images.

I’ve been testing a new way to solve character consistency, and it’s by far the best method I’ve tried so far.

Let me show you how: Image
We’ll be using the website @scenario_gg (link below).

Scenario allows you to train custom SD models on your character – and it’s both really easy and completely free.

Having tried it, DAMN it’s good. Image
Before training a model, you first need 5-15 reference images of the same character.

The easiest way to get these images is to make a character sprite sheet with DALL-E.

Super easy. Image

I've generated 10,000+ images with DALL-E 3.

My Logo Creator GPT is also the #1 GPT under DALL-E.

Here are the 10 most useful DALL-E prompting tips I've learnt: Image
1. DALL-E has no negative prompts.

To remove an object (like a gun) from an image:

Use a positive prompt that is the opposite of the unwanted object. Example:

Doesn't work: "No gun"
Works: "Family friendly"
2. DALL-E inside ChatGPT can only generate one image at a time.

But if you want more images without wasting your chats:

Ask it to generate X images, *one after the other*.

Works like magic.

Midjourney and DALL-E 3 can generate some great product photos.

But you can’t place your *actual* product into those images.

I’ve been testing a great tool that solves this problem.

Here’s how to use it: Image
Before we start, here’s a quick demo of a photoshoot I generated.

The perfume bottle is real, but the background pics are made by AI.

Note that it also creates shadows and reflections!

Given that professional photoshoots cost thousands, this is very impressive. Image
The website is called ProductScope (link below).

Start by uploading your product photo.

Then, head over to the “Themes” section, and pick your background scene.

If you like, you can also use a custom prompt to generate 4 high quality scenes and pick the best. Image

Midjourney vs DALL-E 3 (text generation)

A few hours ago, Midjourney dropped a big update to v6 - and it's now even better at making text.

But is it better than DALL-E?

I ran 15 experiments - and here are the results:
1. Prompt: The words "THE LEGEND 27" on a movie poster featuring a legendary sword, and flames in the background

Left: DALL-E 3
Right: Midjourney v6 (updated)
Image
Image
2. Prompt: A man standing alone in a dark empty area, staring at a neon sign that says "EMPTY"

Left: DALL-E 3
Right: Midjourney v6 (updated)

Did you know that Midjourney has a parameter called --tile?

It's very powerful, but most people don't know how to use it.

Here are 10 practical ways to use this parameter:
First, what does this parameter do?

Put "--tile" at the end of your prompt, and MJ will generate images that align perfectly when placed side by side.

So you can use these images to make infinite repeating patterns. Image
This parameter is perfect for making:

1. Backgrounds for posters and ads

Prompt: a closeup photo of fresh fruits --tile Image

We all know Midjourney AI can make some very professional images.

But what about random boring photos of everyday people?

I found a way to do so, and it's scary just how realistic they are.

9 examples:
I generated these pics using a method shared by u/KudzuEye on Reddit.
