Generating Character Image
With Midjourney’s new Character Reference feature, users can now create multiple images of the same character. The character’s features will remain the same throughout, even as the background and scene changes based on prompts.
One of its main features is the capability to retrieve or generate character image URLs directly through the platform. By simply utilizing the command “–cref” followed by the URL, users can seamlessly create characters tailored to their specific needs and preferences in a multitude of scenarios.
Adjusting Image Variance
One of the key highlights of this feature is the level of control it provides over the variance of generated images. Through the command “–cw” followed by a numerical value ranging from 1 to 100, users can finely tune the reproduction of the original character. Lower numbers offer greater variation, while higher numbers closely replicate the reference, ensuring consistency across images.
Advanced Options and Considerations
Midjourney’s Character Reference feature goes beyond basic character generation, offering advanced options for blending information from multiple images. Users can employ multiple “–cref” tags with respective URLs to seamlessly integrate various visual elements into their creations. Additionally, in the web alpha version of Midjourney, users can conveniently drag or paste images, selecting them as prompts, style references, or character references.
