Add the Same Face to Different Midjourney Pictures

Creating consistent characters or using the same face across different images can be tricky with standard AI tools like Midjourney. But what if you want to put *your* face, or a character's face, onto different scenes and styles?

There is a simple, free tool that helps you do just that. It uses AI to understand and recreate the face on new images, not just paste it on. This opens up lots of possibilities for authors, artists, or anyone just having fun with AI art.

What You Need to Get Started

You will need a Discord account. Midjourney runs on Discord, and this face-swapping tool does too.

While you can interact with Midjourney directly, setting up your own private Discord server is helpful for keeping your work organized. Note that using your own server doesn't make your Midjourney images private; they are still publicly visible on the Midjourney website unless you have a paid plan with stealth mode. If privacy is key for commercial work, consider that option.

Set Up Your Discord Server

• Look for the plus sign icon in Discord to "Add a Server".

• Choose "Create My Own".

• Select "For me and my friends".

• Give your server a name, like "AI Art Projects" or "Face Swapper Test".

• Click "Create".

Invite the Bots

Now you need to invite two key bots to your new server:

• The Midjourney Bot: Find the Midjourney bot in your direct messages or on the Midjourney server. Click on its name or icon. Select "Add to Server" and choose the server you just created. Authorize the permissions requested.

• The Insight Face Swap Bot: You need a specific link to invite this bot. Search online for the current invite link for the "InsightFaceSwap" bot, or use a link provided in a relevant tutorial. Click the invite link. Select your new server from the dropdown list. Authorize the permissions.

Once both bots show up in your server's user list, you are ready.

Save a Face for Swapping

The first step with the Insight Face Swap tool is to save an image of the face you want to use. This creates an "ID" for that face.

• In your server's message bar, type `/saveid`.

• The command will prompt you to add an image. Drag and drop or upload the picture of the face.

• Give the face ID a short name, ideally under 8 characters (e.g., "me", "char1", "steve"). Type this name into the "id_name" field.

• Hit Enter. The bot will confirm that the ID is saved.

You can save multiple face IDs this way. The bot will remember them.

Enhance your AI art creation workflow with the dedicated TitanXT Midjourney Automation Suite. It provides tools to help manage your prompts and images.

Swap the Face Onto a New Image

Now for the fun part: applying your saved face to other images.

• Generate some images using Midjourney. You can do this directly in your server using the `/imagine` command, just like you normally would.

• Once Midjourney finishes generating the grid of images, right-click on the *specific image* within the grid that you want to modify (before upscaling or varying).

• A menu will appear. Go down to "Apps".

• Select "In Swapper".

The Insight Face Swap bot will process the image. It uses the *last face ID you saved* and applies it to the selected image. Give it a moment, and a new image will appear in the chat with the face swapped.

What's amazing is that the AI doesn't just paste your face. It adapts the face to the pose, lighting, and expression of the target image. The result looks natural and can feel quite magical.

Using Face Swapping for Characters

This method is perfect for artists and authors who need consistent visual characters across different scenes for books or stories.

• Generate an image of your character using Midjourney. Make sure they have a clear face.

• Use `/saveid` to save that character's face with a unique name.

• Then, generate images of various scenes or situations where you want your character to appear (e.g., "boy standing next to school bus", "astronaut on the moon").

• After Midjourney generates the scene images, use the "In Swapper" app on the image you want to modify. Since the character's face was the last one saved, it will be applied.

For even better character consistency beyond just the face, try to include details about the character's appearance (like clothing style, hair color) in your prompts for the scene images. This helps the AI create a base character that is already similar before you swap the face.

Keep track of your face IDs and prompts. Tools like the TitanXT Midjourney Automation Suite can help manage your creative assets and streamline your image generation process.

Note that the free Insight Face Swap bot has a limit of 50 commands per day. The count resets later, usually around midnight UTC.

In Conclusion

Using a face-swapping tool on Discord with Midjourney is a fun and powerful way to add consistency to your AI generated images. Whether you want to see yourself in different styles, create headshots, or build consistent characters for creative projects, this method makes it straightforward.

Experiment with different faces and scenes, and see what amazing results you can create. To stay organized and get more from your Midjourney experience, check out the TitanXT Midjourney Automation Suite. Happy creating!
