Midjourney is a powerful tool for creating amazing images. But did you know you can do more than just generate pictures? Two features, Outpainting and Inpainting, let you either grow your image or fix small details inside it. Let's look at how they work and how they can help your creative projects.
Growing Your Scene with Outpainting
Imagine you have a great image, but you want to see what's happening *outside* the frame. That's where Outpainting comes in. It allows Midjourney to intelligently fill in the areas surrounding your original picture.
Think of it like zooming out in a video. You start with a tight shot and then reveal more of the environment around your subject. Outpainting uses the existing image and your text prompt to build a believable world outwards. It's not just adding random stuff; it's about extending the scene naturally, step by step.
A Key Tip for Outpainting
Trying to put every single detail (like lighting, background elements, camera style) into one big prompt for a large scene can often lead to confusing results. Midjourney tries to do too much at once.
A better approach is to start simple. Create the core of your image first. Then, use Outpainting to expand the scene little by little, adding details intentionally in each expansion step. This gives you much more control over the final look and helps keep your image feeling consistent. This "inside out" method is key to creating impressive, larger scenes.

Fixing Your Image with Inpainting
What if you love most of your image, but one small part isn't quite right? Maybe a detail is off, or you need to remove an object. Inpainting is the feature you need. It lets you make precise adjustments *within* your image.
To use Inpainting, you typically select the area you want to change (like using an erase tool in editor mode). Then, you provide a simple prompt telling Midjourney what to do in that specific spot, like "remove object" or "change color to blue."
Why Inpainting is Powerful
You don't have to generate the whole image again just to fix a small error.
It acts like spot healing for your prompt, letting you target specific issues.
It's great for making small, specific changes, whether it's removing an unwanted background item, switching a piece of clothing, or fixing a detail that didn't come out right.
It offers a level of precision for refining your art.
