Recommended Parameters

ParameterValueWhy
VISUAL STYLE:8-bit pixel art, 16-bit pixel art, retro pixel artThese values directly instruct Midjourney to generate images with the classic pixelated aesthetic, specifying the 'resolution' or detail level of the pixels.
FORMAT:Game sprite, Digital illustration, Avatar iconSpecifying the format helps Midjourney understand the intended use and style, influencing elements like background complexity, pose, and overall presentation typical of pixel art games or digital assets.
FILM STOCK / RESOLUTION:Low resolution, crisp pixels, high resolution, smooth anti-aliasingWhile 'pixel art' itself implies resolution, explicitly defining 'low resolution, crisp pixels' reinforces the blocky, distinct pixel look. For a more refined pixel art style, 'high resolution, smooth anti-aliasing' can be used to hint at modern pixel art techniques.
ASPECT RATIO:7:4, 3:2, 16:9Many classic pixel art games and displays used specific aspect ratios. 7:4 or 3:2 can evoke a more retro feel, while 16:9 is standard for modern screens and can be used for wider pixel art compositions.

Pro Tips

  • 1Experiment with 'VISUAL STYLE:' to specify different pixel art eras like '8-bit pixel art', '16-bit pixel art', or even '32-bit pixel art' for varying levels of detail.
  • 2Use 'COLOR:' to define a limited color palette (e.g., 'Gameboy palette', 'neon colors', 'monochromatic') to enhance the authentic pixel art feel.
  • 3For sharper, more defined pixels, include 'crisp pixels', 'sharp edges', or 'no anti-aliasing' in your prompt. Conversely, 'smooth anti-aliasing' can create a more modern pixel art look.
  • 4Combine 'GENRE:' with pixel art (e.g., 'cyberpunk pixel art', 'fantasy pixel art') to create unique thematic portraits that leverage both styles.
  • 5Consider the 'FRAME SIZE:' and 'COMPOSITION:' (e.g., 'headshot', 'bust', 'full body sprite') to dictate how much of the portrait is visible and how it's framed within the pixel art context.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Forgetting to explicitly state 'pixel art' in the prompt, which can lead to Midjourney generating illustrations that aren't pixelated.
Using overly complex or photorealistic descriptions without balancing them with pixel art specific terms, resulting in a hybrid or diluted style.
Not specifying a desired resolution or crispness for the pixels, which can sometimes lead to blurry or inconsistent pixel definition.
