Tips
- 1Start broad, then refine: Begin with general concepts and gradually add specific details and stylistic keywords to your prompts to steer Midjourney towards your desired outcome.
- 2Use 'Concept Art' explicitly: Always include 'Concept Art' or 'Character Design', 'Environment Design', 'Prop Design' in your prompt to ensure the output aligns with industry expectations, rather than just a pretty picture.
- 3Reference real-world or artistic styles: Incorporate keywords like 'Artstation trending', 'Unreal Engine 5 render', 'ZBrush sculpt', or specific artists' names (e.g., 'concept art by Feng Zhu') to influence the aesthetic and quality.
- 4Iterate with variations: Don't settle for the first result. Use the 'V' button to generate variations of promising images, and the 'U' button to upscale and further develop the best ones.
- 5Layer details with comma separation: Break down complex ideas into smaller, comma-separated descriptive phrases (e.g., 'Elven Rogue, dark leather armor, glowing runes, twin daggers') for Midjourney to parse accurately.
